About this home

1920's bungalow built by famed East Bay developer Charles Manning MacGregor in up-and-coming South Berkeley. 3 bedroom, 2-bath house with a charming mix of original details and modern upgrades. Walk to the new Equinox gym, Berkeley Bowl, Ashby Bart, farmers markets, restaurants, coffee shops and boutiques. City bus stop half a block away. Master bedroom has enormous windows that open onto an expansive back yard with mature asian pear, fig, blueberry and persimmon trees. Unique black slate patio and hand-built benches invite outdoor living, and a huge space awaits the gardener of the family. Freshly remodeled bathrooms and kitchens by one of Berkeley’s premier builders, with local Heath tile backsplash, hand-plastered walls, wood floors, beautiful open walnut-wood shelving, and a deep sink and kitchen range that will make the chef of the family happy. The house has solar panel installed that bring the electric bill to zero, and significant earthquake retrofitting. Buyer to verif
