A charming layout welcomes you with a dynamic roofline and soaring ceilings that create a bright, open, and inviting atmosphere. The thoughtfully designed floor plan offers two bedrooms and two bathrooms, along with two outdoor deck spaces and a sun-drenched backyard, ideal for embracing Berkeley’s indoor-outdoor lifestyle. At the heart of the home, the skylit kitchen serves as a true chef’s retreat, showcasing sleek two-tone European-style cabinetry with warm wood accents, a striking waterfall quartz island, and under-cabinet lighting that enhances both function and style. Ideally situated in a phenomenal central location near San Pablo Park, Berkeley Bowl, BART, and major highways, offering easy access to shopping, recreation, commuting, and everyday conveniences.
