Description

Welcome to 2155 Emerson St., a thoughtfully renovated Berkeley home where design, functionality, and everyday livability come together with remarkable care. Over the past decade, the home has been extensively renovated under the guidance of a distinguished interior designer, with a strong emphasis on craftsmanship, high-quality finishes, and detail. Expansive windows invite abundant natural light, and layered lighting allows each space to transition beautifully from day to evening. An open layout supports connection and ease of living, while the kitchen offers high-quality appliances, generous storage, and an ideal setting for both daily meals and gatherings. Nearly every window frames views of surrounding greenery, creating a strong connection to the outdoors. The mature garden is designed for ease of maintenance, and the deck functions as a serene outdoor living room. A clean, well-lit basement provides excellent workspace, ample storage, and potential for expansion. Ideally located near BART, Berkeley Bowl, Elmwood shops, the Public Library, Grove Park, and Rockridge. Convenient transit options abound. Just as notable is the sense of neighborhood connection that defines this stretch of Emerson Street. BESO and Sewer Compliant. Home Energy Score of 10.

    "Lots of students in the area because of the proximity to UC Berkeley. Its also a very political area, marches and cops and helicopters are not uncommon in response to the political climate. "

    "I lived in this neighborhood for 3 years. Since it's just south of the UC Berkeley campus, there is a lot of foot traffic and noise when school is in session. Mostly students live in this neighborhood but there are a ton of homeless people lying on the sidewalks and they can get pretty aggressive. Plenty of cheap restaurants catering to students as well."

    "Berkeley has high property taxes with the outcome of good public services and excellent schools. This part of south Berkeley is bicycle friendly with great grocery stores (perhaps the best options in the State!) plus neighbors who walk and know each other. A very enjoyable & diverse neighborhood."

    "A perfect 10-15 minute walk to the Cal Campus or the upscale, but delicious Elmwood area. Animal friendly neighborhood, with a fairly strong neighborhood association. The Julia Morgan Theater and Benvenue Public Library as well as excellent schools are just some of the treasures of this area."
