Location, Light & So Much More

Once upon a time, a fabulous craftsman home sat all by itself in the heart of Berkeley. Then a second charming home was built on the lot, and the property was thoughtfully curated into two site condos. Now one can be yours.

Positioned in front and capturing all of the natural light, this home lives like a single family residence, with no shared walls, offering 3 bedrooms and 3 bathrooms full of craftsman charm. The living room showcases classic details including wood built ins and a stunning fireplace, while hardwood floors carry throughout. The formal dining room offers generous space for entertaining and is filled with natural light. Two ensuite bedrooms and updated bathrooms round out the layout, along with a spacious kitchen ready for you to refresh and make your own. Enjoy your own private deck plus additional shared outdoor space. The HOA is low key, since each owner maintains their own home.

This home sits in Southwest Berkeley, a neighborhood known for its relaxed, walkable feel and some of the East Bay's best food. San Pablo Avenue runs right through the area, home to neighborhood favorites like Third Culture Bakery, Caffe Chiave, and Anchalee Thai, along with Ashby Supermarket for everyday groceries. San Pablo Park, Berkeley's oldest and largest community park, is just around the corner with playgrounds, sports courts, and open fields for weekend afternoons. Fourth Street's boutiques and restaurants are a short trip away, and the Berkeley Marina offers a quiet escape for walks by the water. AC Transit runs frequently along San Pablo Avenue, making it an easy trip to Downtown Berkeley, UC Berkeley, Oakland, and Albany. If you thought you were priced out of Berkeley, this is your opportunity to own space in one of the East Bay's most beloved neighborhoods.

Why Berkeley?

Tucked in the heart of Berkeley, Southwest Berkeley blends working class roots, artistic energy, and easy access to some of the East Bay's best food and parks. Just west of San Pablo Avenue and a short distance from the Berkeley Marina, this neighborhood offers a coveted mix of community charm and everyday convenience, making it a favorite among longtime families, artists, and food lovers alike.

Parks and Outdoor Life
Southwest Berkeley is anchored by San Pablo Park, Berkeley's oldest and largest community park, offering vast green space, tennis and basketball courts, baseball fields, and a large playground that serves as a beloved gathering spot for families and neighborhood events. Locals also love a stroll or bike ride out to the Berkeley Marina and Aquatic Park, where open water views and walking paths offer a quieter pace just minutes from home.

Foodie Favorites
This part of Berkeley has quietly become one of the East Bay's most interesting places to eat. Restaurants and cafes are interspersed throughout the area, with many found along San Pablo Avenue, University Avenue, and the revitalized Fourth Street corridor. Longtime favorites include:
  • Third Culture Bakery for pastries and coffee
  • Caffe Chiave for a neighborhood cafe feel
  • Mi Tierra Foods for groceries and local flavor
  • Anchalee Thai for curries and fish specialties
  • Handlebar for a good burger and a cold beer
  • 900 Grayson for a brunch worth waking up for

The stretch of San Pablo Avenue near the park buzzes with local eateries and cafes featuring everything from longstanding taquerias to newer vegan spots, so there is always something new to try just steps from home.

Shops and Community Life
Residents describe the neighborhood as walkable and dog friendly, with easy parking and friendly neighbors. Everyday needs are covered close by too. Ashby Supermarket, near Ashby and San Pablo Avenue, has anchored the community for decades with fresh produce and household basics, and Urban Ore is a local institution for architectural salvage and secondhand treasures. Just a short trip north, Fourth Street's boutiques and restaurants make for an easy afternoon out.

Getting Around
With San Pablo Avenue served by frequent AC Transit routes and quick access to the freeway, Southwest Berkeley makes commuting simple whether you are headed to Downtown Berkeley, UC Berkeley, Oakland, or San Francisco.
