About this home
Built in 1910, this classic Craftsman bungalow is Berkeley through and through. The wide front porch made for lingering. The traditional foyer, the hardwood floors, rooms that connect the way rooms should. Natural light pours in. The living room flows seamlessly into the dining room, while the kitchen opens directly to the backyard—comfortable, functional, nothing forced, nothing overdone. The updates are the right ones — stone countertops, upgraded cabinetry, fresh paint inside and out, updated electrical, dual-pane windows and laundry inside. At the rear of the property, the former garage has been transformed into a finished space—an ideal retreat for working, creating, or simply finding a quiet moment. Two bedrooms, one beautiful bath, move-in ready. The landscaped grounds create a private oasis. Drought-tolerant plantings, including succulents and lavender, enhance both the front and rear gardens with beauty and ease of maintenance. The backyard patio is designed for gathering, offering ample space for outdoor dining, entertaining, and relaxing with family and friends. California Street is one of those streets that makes you exhale — wide, tree-lined, genuinely neighborly. Just moments away, Ohlone Park offers five blocks of green space, including a dog park, community garden, sports courts, and the Ohlone Greenway. North Berkeley BART is just beyond. This is the heart of Berkeley, and it shows. UC Berkeley, the Cheeseboard, Chez Panisse, the farmers market, downtown theaters and restaurants, and the Berkeley Arts District are all within easy reach—walkable, bikeable, and drivable. With two BART stations nearby, the best of Berkeley is right outside your door. Rich in character, thoughtfully updated, and ideally located, this timeless Berkeley bungalow is ready for its next chapter. BESO Score = 4....
