Built in 1929 this lovely home was substantially rebuilt, remodeled and updated by a professional caterer in 2007. Full and half baths were remodeled in 2014. All improvements were done with contemporary, quality finishes and appliances built to last. Open floor plan with chef’s kitchen flows through French doors to an expansive Trex deck overlooking the deep yard. The garden was designed with raised beds for seasonal vegetables and boasts mature fruit trees and a perimeter of perennial blooms. Somehow the sun is just right here to help ripen tomatoes! Full basement level with attached garage, space for an office, storage or more. Rear shed with potential. The atmosphere is amazingly private and quiet, even though you are only a block away from Berkeley Bowl and Berkeley's abundant cultural life. Take BART, bus, bicycle or walk into a wonderful new life of car-less living. Enjoy!
