Extraordinarily gracious home with an abundance of space and a modern twist. Just 0.3 miles to BART, 0.5 miles to Berkeley Bowl, and even closer to numerous cafes. The flow inside provides both openness and nice separation, and the level in/out to the yard allows for comfortable easy living. With so many updates this home feels like new, yet it has retained its original warmth and character. The first floor features an open concept living room, dining room & kitchen with sliding doors to a deck and grassy backyard, and a powder room. The second floor offers a grand master bedroom with ensuite bath, two additional bedrooms and a hall bath. The third floor is a truly wonderful space, with a large family room, that is full of light and whimsey. This is the 4th bedroom per the public record. The home was extensively remodeled and enlarged in 2007. The work included replacement of the foundation, all major systems, a full interior remodel and the addition of 1200 sq ft. This is a rare home!
