This cute Central Berkeley 2BD/1BA Bungalow, with a detached office, art studio or creative retreat, and nestled in a coveted neighborhood close to all, is ready for the next owner's reinvention. 3111 Wheeler, which has been loved by its current owner for more than 20 years, welcomes visitors with a large living room/dining room with fireplace, period built-ins, and warm wood floors. The home also features a galley kitchen with good space for food prep and storage, and an adjoining laundry room with storage, both tucked conveniently at the home's rear. The home's cozy core is completed by two ample bedrooms and a full bath with shower over tub in between. Fresh paint, recently refinished wood floors, and lots of windows run throughout this vintage Berkeley classic. Outback is a backyard ready for pets and play AND a freestanding studio. Excellent central Berkeley neighborhood that Walkscore.com calls a Walker's Paradise, close to local shopping, dining, markets (Whole Foods, Berkeley Bowl), coffee, Elmwood, Rockridge, Ashby Bart and public transit.
