About this home
Do you dream of a large, comfortable home just blocks from beloved San Pablo Park and the Berkeley Bowl? 1106 Russell is not just at the center of so much of what Berkeley has to offer but is generous and well appointed. The charming covered front porch leads to an open floor plan living and dining room rich with craftsman detailing. On this level find an ensuite bedroom which can also be used as a family room, office or guest suite. The kitchen, with charming island, flows to a mudroom and half-bath and onto the deck and yard. Upstairs are three more bedrooms and two full bathrooms. The primary bedroom is large enough for an office space or luxurious dressing room with two sets of sliding doors to a balcony that overlooks the action. Well loved and cared for, this home is close to shops, restaurants, gym and so much more. An elegant island of calm in the middle of it all. HES (BESO) score = 5.

West Berkeley, located between San Pablo Avenue and the San Francisco Bay, is an industrial and artsy Berkeley neighborhood with a working waterfront and maker warehouses. The neighborhood’s character concentrates around Fourth Street and Hearst Avenue, where design-forward shops, cafes, and galleries line a walkable retail strip. Converted factories, low-slung workshops, and live-work style buildings give the streets a utilitarian, creative edge. The Berkeley Marina and César Chávez Park frame the western horizon with wide paths and open sky. Local pillars include the Berkeley Art Center, The Freight, and Takara Sake USA. Food and drink landmarks such as Acme Bread and Fieldwork Brewing Company add a distinctly local rhythm.
