This beautifully maintained Craftsman bungalow in the heart of Berkeley has the kind of character you can’t replicate —freshly refinished original hardwood floors, period trim and architectural details intact, and a light-filled interior that feels both timeless and completely move-in ready. As you enter, an enclosed porch with a banquette and outdoor heater welcomes you and extends your living space through most of the year. Inside, a bright living room opens to the adjoining dining room, and the main level features two bedrooms: an ample front bedroom with an ensuite bath and walk-in closet, and a second that works equally well as a bedroom or office. The updated kitchen is a standout — butcher block counters, designer penny tile backsplash, stainless appliances, and generous counter space that makes cooking a pleasure. Downstairs, the finished basement is a genuine extension of the home, complete with a full bathroom, an oversized non-conforming bedroom with an egress window, an open flex space perfect for a reading nook or fitness area, dedicated laundry counter space, and a private second office that could be configured as a closet. Outside, the backyard is a quiet retreat, fully fenced, with a great blend of mature trees, yard, and patio space for entertaining. An oversized two-car garage with generous storage easily handles your vehicles, hobbies, and gear with ease. Situated on a quiet, non-through street just a short stroll from Tennyson Street’s best restaurants, coffee shops, and boutiques, this is Berkeley living at its best.
