In the Poets corner area of Berkely this 3 bedroom 1 bathroom home has charm and possibilities. Upgraded windows and updated bathroom with dual sinks and a new shower over tub with wonderful stone tone tile. The bedrooms, kitchen and living room have classic wood floors throughout. Nice newer windows with classic trim to keep some of the charm. The 3rd bedroom could also be an extra living room. The lot is Deep with a small front yard allowing lots of space in the back yard to expand with great zoning possibilities R1-A. An existing structure is in the backyard now but has no foundation. Great walk score of 94 and just a couple of miles from the famous University. Definitely worth a look.
