Superb renovation in popular Oceanview/Gilman district! Sellers reimagined & improved this wonderful home with thoughtful changes to the layout, making energy efficient & quality upgrades throughout. A true labor of love renovated from the studs out which is bittersweet to leave behind! Excellent indoor-outdoor flow, plus great separation of spaces for working at home. Open chef's kitchen so all can take part in cooking together, with access to a great deck, sunny backyard, & large detached garage--Zoning is R1A. '10 out of 10' energy score! Assessor shows two BR's, but a 'plus' functions well as a 3rd or perfect home office. Rare chance to have an essentially 'new' home in one of Berkeley's most convenient & popular neighborhoods. 4th street, Gilman shops, Tokyo Fish Market, Acme bread & Kermit Lynch wine are just a stone's throw away, plus restaurants, cafe's galore, and excellent transit options. Sellers will miss this congenial neighborhood, close to so much that Berkeley offers.
