Filled with music, poetry and love for six decades, this sweet Northbrae 2BR/1BA is on the market for the first time since 1961. This fixer was reputedly built in 1928 for One-Nail MacGregor himself and later moved from Albany to Berkeley's best location -- halfway between Solano shops and the Monterey Market. The spacious living and dining rooms flow seamlessly together, while large beautiful windows bring in lots of light. Beautiful Mayan tiles surround the fireplace. The bathroom was remodeled several years ago, along with electrical and plumbing upgrades. The furnace, water heater and appliances are all in working order. A sweet backyard just needs a fence. Substantial repairs are needed to the roof, stucco framing, garage, driveway, some walls and windows, the sewer lateral, and perhaps the foundation. This home is ready for contractors to make it perfect again for another loving family.
