    Description

    CENTRALLY LOCATED IN THE HEART OF BERKELEY FOR MODULAR CONTRACTORS, BUILDERS, AND INVESTORS. Vacant, adjacent land lots, 2218 & 2222 Grant St., zoned R-2 Berkeley Residence, recent zoning change allowing for more entitlements, offering an excellent redevelopment opportunity for Modular / Student Housing. The property provides a clean slate for development in a desirable area with strong housing demand. Ideal for investors and developers seeking proximity to local amenities and educational institutions, 0.6mi from UC Berkeley, one of the most prestigious schools in the country, and 0.5mi from the downtown Berkeley BART station, offering benefits from CA SB-79. Two vacant homes on 9,980 sq ft of land total between the two lots. This R-2 zoned site is eligible for significant new density under Berkeley's recently passed, Middle Housing Ordinance and when coupled with density bonus and proximity to mass transit (CA SB 79) a developer could build anywhere from 16 to 28 units in 3 to 6 stories without any parking. Height and density will be determined by affordable restrictions. There are no parking requirements for this site, as it's walking distance to UC Berkeley, retail and public transportation. This site is currently unentitled and provides a developer to design a project that takes advantage of Berkeley's recent changes in zoning. Rare, assembled development site in central Berkeley positioned to capitalize on California SB 79, which takes effect January 1, 2026. This legislation unlocks ministerial approval and unprecedented density for projects, like this one, within 1/2 mile of major transit, bypassing Berkeley's historically restrictive local zoning.

      "Nice people, trees, active police and good food make this a good place to live. Look at the sidewalks and streets in the area stick to well paved areas."
    • Shamar a. J. M.
      "South Berkeley is a transitioning neighborhood as most places around America there is gentrification going on. Berkeley overall is a good place to live with good schools"
    • Joiyao
      "I used to live here and the neighborhood is nice to live and work in. They are really cleaning things up "
    • walzer
      "Walk to entertainment, supermarket and transportation. Includes detached 500 sq ft. art studio"
    • Rie Y.
      "This is a fairly quiet street, with some foot and car traffic since it connects to Sacramento Street and University Ave. But it's much more neighborhood-oriented than it seems, and close to daycare/dog park/cafe/bakery."
    • mysolosusan
      "I live almost on the corner of Bancroft and Roosevelt, and have lived in central Berkeley for two straight decades now. It's a great neighborhood - I see there's supposed to be a bit higher crime not far from here, but in all these years I've seen only one crime - a mugging wherein a Berkeley high graduate about 19 years old, tried to steal an earbud for a cell phone from a high school girl. He didn't get the earbud and the police caught him and a couple others with the minimum of fuss. That's it, although I've heard of a couple other small crimes more toward university. To live here is to feel very safe, and really be in walking distance to UC, and all kinds of shops, restaurants and so on. The little tot parks are real nice, especially the one on Roosevelt, and walking is very enjoyable due to all the lovely landscaping done in this area around private homes. Neighbors are great. I love living here except for having to get a parking permit - which is cheap and easy to do really."
