Stylish Craftsman with modern upgrades and vintage essence in the heart of Berkeley. A gorgeous single-level 3-bedroom, 2-bath home, with a detached garden structure*, offers a serene retreat in the hub of a vibrant neighborhood. Minutes to the world-renowned University of California at Berkeley, fabulous restaurants, performing arts theaters, and music venues. The nearby North Berkeley BART makes for convenient access to daily activities. Once inside the gate, your oasis awaits, where professionally designed gardens create private and peaceful surroundings. The covered porch, with its graceful arches, beautifully frames the garden.  Once inside, a roomy foyer leads to a well-lit living room with wall-to-wall picture windows, a brick-faced fireplace, and built-in bookshelves. The open-concept dining room and chef’s kitchen are well-suited for everyday enjoyment and gatherings. Walnut cabinetry with abundant storage and a built-in desk, designer tile, and skylight add to the functionality of the kitchen. The original leaded-glass built-in cabinets are complemented by the sleek floor-to-ceiling sliding glass doors leading to the deck. The seamless connection to the spacious deck extends the dining area for al fresco dining. 

Down the hallway, there are two spacious and high-ceilinged light-filled bedrooms with views to the lovely backyard and a subway-tiled bathroom as well as a conveniently located closet for a stackable washer/dryer. A spacious bedroom suite and bathroom with double sinks and a vintage clawfoot tub provide a peaceful sanctuary. 

The artful flagstone backyard patio surrounded by mature fruit trees and plants is ideal for hosting and entertaining guests. To top it off, there is a charming garden structure the seller used as a home office and as guest quarters.
