First time on the market in over 60 years, this Craftsman-style bungalow embodies Berkeley’s charm in the sought-after Northbrae neighborhood. Situated just off Solano Avenue, the home offers convenient access to beloved cafés, restaurants, and shopping. Enjoy the sunset and peek-a-boo SF Bay views from your front porch, perched high above the street. Inside, a spacious living room and formal dining room welcome you with beautiful original wood trim and classic wainscoting. A generous eat-in kitchen with a pantry area provides a comfortable space for daily gatherings. Two bedrooms are conveniently located on the main level, while a versatile plus room sits upstairs on a split level—perfect as a private office, studio, or guest room. Freshly landscaped, sunny front and backyards create inviting settings for gardening, play, or quiet reflection. A long driveway spans the nearly 6,000-square-foot (per public record) deep lot, ending at a large detached structure previously equipped with water and electricity—ideal for storage, workshop, or hobbies*. Additionally, a second full bath and laundry area are thoughtfully placed downstairs in the basement, enhancing the home's practicality. Lovingly maintained through the decades, this home is ready for its next chapter.
