In the heart of West Berkeley, just a short hop to 4th Street shops and restaurants, you’ll find a classic yet understated Victorian home that simply oozes charm. This 4-BR, 2-BA residence is ideally located and beautifully maintained. Imagine timeless architecture, exquisite oak floors, and high ceilings in the main home. A detached ADU with vaulted ceilings and a full bathroom renders the property that much sweeter, whether used as a guest suite, home office, or possibly for AirBnB! The delightful backyard garden is an oasis connecting the two; the space is bathed in sunlight, making it the perfect setting for outdoor relaxation or gardening. An enormous full basement on the lower level provides ample storage and offers endless potential for customization. Art studio? Wine cellar? This Victorian features dual-pane windows, top of the line appliances and fixtures(Wolf, Gaggenau, Hansgrohe, Fisher & Paykel, and more!) and a remodeled bathroom featuring a soaking Duravit bathtub. Built-in cabinets, a brick living room fireplace, and an outside deck overlooking a spacious backyard add to the allure of this gem. If you’ve been dreaming of West Berkeley and waiting for a home to entice you with its charm, now’s your opportunity to jump in! This place is a keeper!

Beautiful and versatile Victoriana, with a contemporary Shingled cottage in the back of the lot...secret garden in between. Stand up tall in the unfinished basement. Loads of possibilities...this home lives BIG!! This beautiful home has been lovingly cared for over the past 33 years and it shows! Most dual pane windows. Beautiful oak floors, stunning kitchen with an operational Wedgewood Stove!! The kitchen is central to this home with the French doors leading to the attached deck, terrific indoor/outdoor flow Wonderfully remodeled Jack and Jill bath... ADU has been used as a home office, but makes a beautiful in law as well. Very hip, cool home awaiting new owners!! 9th Street dead ends at the end of the block making it very quaint and quiet. Close to everything!!
