A block to Solano Ave’s eateries and shops, this Berkeley beauty is set on a redwood-lined street. Greeted by lush landscaping, guests are welcomed into a sunny interior lined in hardwoods.

The welcoming eat-in kitchen is appointed with S/S appliances, new sink, stove, and quartz counters. Beyond the kitchen lies a sizable deck and flat rear yard with a detached, bright flex space -measuring approx. 214 sq. ft - ideal for a office or maker's space. Illuminated with sunlight, 2 bedrooms are serviced by a cheery bath with blue tile, pedestal sink and shower-over tub-combo. Plenty of off-street parking, storage options, and system upgrades. Near top schools and great commuting options. With a 96 Walkscore and 91 Bikescore, leave the car at home and enjoy all that this neighborhood has to offer!
