Colorful comfortable updated cottage + large, flat landscaped rear garden + big detached garage + drywalled shack in the back(yard) with electricity = a West Berkeley juggernaut! An utterly adorable house with an ideal layout leads to the star of the show, which is the sunny, flat, landscaped backyard. Mature fig and plum trees, fresh grass and plantings, and a fenced in space make for an ideal place to entertain friends or create your own zen-zone. Updated kitchen w/ new countertops and mostly new appliances, and an updated bathroom. Refinished hardwood floors + newly installed vinyl in the kitchen, freshly painted inside and out. Newer windows throughout. Sellers improved the energy efficiency of the home by installing a heat pump which provides both heat and air conditioning, and a tankless water heater. The garage offers a tantalizing opportunity for future owners...or leave it as-is and use it as an abundant storage solution. A long driveway makes tandem parking easy. Exceptionally convenient to everything, and easy to get around - 97 Walkscore and a 96 Bikescore!
