What's unique:Original characterQuiet tree-lined streetAbundant natural lightWarm welcoming atmosphereBeautifully refinished hardwood floorsOriginal windows
Located on a quiet, tree-lined street in Berkeley's coveted Thousand Oaks neighborhood, this Craftsman bungalow, rich in original architectural details, presents a wonderful opportunity to renovate and reimagine. Freshly painted inside and out, the home features beautifully refinished hardwood floors, original windows, abundant natural light, and a warm, welcoming atmosphere. The living and dining rooms flow seamlessly together, creating an inviting space for everyday living and entertaining. The kitchen retains its vintage appeal, with an adjacent pantry and storage area offering added convenience. Two bedrooms share a Jack-and-Jill bathroom, reflecting the home's classic Craftsman design. Outside, a spacious, level backyard with a brick patio offers a blank canvas for gardening, entertaining, or creating a personal outdoor retreat. The detached garage requires a new roof and offers additional possibilities. With a Walk Score of 95 and Solano Avenue just half a block away, it's easy to shop local, dine out, and enjoy a leave-the-car-behind lifestyle. More than just a neighborhood, Thousand Oaks is a true community where a strong sense of connection and belonging makes it one of Berkeley's most desirable places to call home.

    "What makes my neighborhood unique, being that I’m in Downtown Berkeley, is that I can walk to the post office, the library, many restaurants and other places like Ace Hardware and places I need to get errands done. So it is an all around is special neighborhood because I can literally walk to everything I need."

    "I grew up on Oakvale Ave & Domingo, and even as a kid I felt that Claremont was the best neighborhood ever: so many families, with genuine community spirit, and all kinds of beautiful, secret places to explore (safely). Now that I’ve lived in Palo Alto, Bryn Mawr, Philadelphia, Manhattan—and raising my own three children in Brooklyn—it’s clear to me that this neighborhood is a uniquely special, sometimes magical, place to grow up. I wish I could move it to Brooklyn!"

    "we care for each neighborhood, and watch out for one another in this big community. From helping the elderly to supporting the youth it's one big fest of communities colliding together and having each other backs. Let's not forget the big parties and many fusion restaurants they have to offer. With its diversity of multicultural foods the possibilities are endless and of course let's not forget our classics to New York style pizza to traditional Mexican cuisine it's an abyss of nothing but delicious food coming your way "
