About this House

Ain't She Sweet!You may never need to travel outside of this darling and coveted Elmwood neighborhood with all of its amenities. You can go from your pillow to coffee in under five minutes flat. Grab a bite to eat. See a movie. Take a hike....and while the exterior of 2638 Russell has a WOW-factor; when you step into this delightful top-floor condo you might want to stay in for a while, turn on the radio, and read a novel by the window that beams with a calm and verdant maple-leaf view. Special care has been taken with lovely updates to the eat-in kitchen: Modern Brass Fixtures contrast against a Charcoal-Gray Granite Sink. Natural Marmoleum Flooring is under foot. Fresh Linear Backsplash is crisp and clean. Still, superb vintage details prevail: Old Knobs that have welcomed people over the decades. Matchstick Floors with warm patina. Fireplace Mantel with Insert for a cozy Berkeley day. A Phone Cubby of yesteryear calls back time...the list goes on. Of course, there is an off-street carport parking space on the off-chance you ever want to leave. Other notables: Extra Basement Storage. A Large Common Deck. Ample Shared Laundry.
