Located in the artist’s colony of Berkeley, this Urban Chic, live work 1920's Bungalow has been renovated into a wide open, sun-filled modern floor plan. The expansive sliding glass doors directly off the kitchen and master bedroom allows sunshine to flow throughout the home all day long. The back deck is spacious and becomes an extension of home, creating an outdoor room. This is perfect spot for entertaining or enjoying a book in the sun. The large backyard is your own blank canvas with possibilities of gardens or, play space for humans and furry friends. The lower level has been converted to a full workshop/artist studio, fully loaded with an over abundance of electric power and work table. This space is accessible from the inside of the home or from private entry on lower level.. This unique neighborhood in Berkeley is also zoned as commercial and is just a few blocks to the Berkeley Bowl and minutes to Ashby BART.

C-W
West Berkeley Commercial District
The purpose of the West Berkeley Commercial (C-W) district is to: Implement the West Berkeley Plan Commercial District designation; Provide locations for commercial services which primarily serve area residents and/or businesses; Support the retention and attraction of a balance of both smaller and larger stores and restaurants; Provide appropriate locations, consistent with West Berkeley Plan policies, for commercial services which serve a citywide or broader clientele; Provide a relatively compact, clearly bounded set of commercial areas in West Berkeley, so as to both improve the quality of West Berkeley shopping environments and to prevent commercial overspill into industrial areas; Encourage the intensification of commercial activity at designated nodes to help develop more pedestrian-oriented environments at those locations; Increase the opportunities for development of housing in commercial areas to support local retailing and use of transit lines and opportunities for mixed use projects combining pedestrian-oriented neighborhood-serving uses with mixed income housing in locations abutting residential districts; Encourage appropriately intense development in underutilized portions of commercial streets; Promote development compatible with adjacent commercial, residential and industrial areas; Provide a location for cultural and performing arts activities; and Promote environmental protection for the residents and workers both within and adjacent to the district from such detriments as noise, fumes, and other detrimental environmental effects.
