Exceptional Berkeley Home

This classic Berkeley bungalow has been thoughtfully updated and expanded while retaining all the original charm. Stroll down the tree-lined street to a landscaped front yard and beautifully detailed facade. The heavy front door opens to your living room brimming with classic moldings, handsome fireplace and tray ceiling. Light streams through from front and side windows. Just behind is your formal dining room with a new chandelier and the same character. You would be forgiven for thinking you stepped into the past. But wait! Just beyond is a big modern kitchen with concrete counters, strong wood cabinets and its own dining area all open to a family room and looking out over the back garden, bursting with nature and all set for entertaining.

The private areas of this home are also a combination of well-preserved character and thoughtful modernization. The modern addition includes a primary suite sited dramatically a few steps below the public areas allowing for privacy AND soaring ceilings. Big French doors open to the yard - a true private retreat. More drama hits you with the modern tower above that delights with its bedroom - or office? - high above the rest of the house and flooded with views across the neighborhood. The third bedroom is in the front with a sweet classic Berkeley feel, cedar closet and a charming updated hall bathroom that somehow belongs in 1922 AND 2025. Parking in driveway, roses and lemon tree along the side and many additional updates make this the perfect home.
