Welcome to this 3 bedroom/1 bath Berkeley bungalow. Step inside and be greeted by beautiful hardwood floors, custom Shoji screens and an open living/dining room. The house feels like a small compound, nestled among the hustle and bustle of West Berkeley. Beautiful French doors open to the tranquil backyard, very private and fully fenced in, with some mature landscaping and a gorgeous Magnolia tree. A wide driveway leads to the garage, which can be used as a home office or bonus room as it is insulated, has large windows for light, and is fully wired. If you like to have freshly brewed coffee and bread within minutes of your house, this is it! Acme Bread, Artis Coffee, Whole Foods… and all of the stores, restaurants and amenities of 4th Street and the Gilman District are nearby.
