Possibilities abound in this Craftsman-era fixer property with a detached studio and 2-car garage. A refreshing relief to the soaring cost of turn-key homes. Here's an opportunity to purchase more affordably and design a showpiece of a home. The main house has a spacious living and dining room with classic box-beamed ceilings, and rich wood accents and details. A finished top story in the main home extends the potential beyond what's often possible. Detached from the main house and built above a 2-car garage, is a spacious studio with a kitchen and bath. Perfect for a home office or other uses. Located in South Berkeley's Lower Elmwood neighborhood just two blocks from Whole Foods, Berkeley Bowl Marketplace, and local cafs and restaurants. Also close by are schools, freeways, and Ashby BART Station (less than 1/2-mile away).
