Delaware Darling! A most delightful North Berkeley cottage located on a private drive of 6 sister homes (these detached homes are NOT CONDOS) set back from the street -- a special, hidden gem. Lovely refinished matchstick hardwood floors throughout. Fresh paint in and out. New quartz counters and penny-tile backsplash in the streamlined, open kitchen. Brand new bathroom with crisp white subway tile. 1 bedroom and a bonus room with closet that could serve as a small 2nd bedroom. This little house packs a lot of punch into its trim and efficient floor plan. Backyard sanctuary with deck and just enough room to relax, garden, and entertain. Perfect central location so close to everything: UC Berkeley, Gourmet Ghetto, and Westbrae and 4th Street shops. Only 3 blocks to North Berkeley BART. Polished and ready to go!
