This exceptionally charming home offers an excellent layout, great bonus spaces, truly amazing backyard, and terrific location! The delightful porch and entry foyer flow to the bright and spacious living room, which in turn opens to the dining room featuring built-in cabinetry, and the updated cook's kitchen. There is also an inviting breakfast nook and newly remodeled powder room. Up half a flight of stairs are two bedrooms with large closets, a full bathroom with Carrara marble tile, and useful linen closets & drawers. Down half a flight of stairs from the kitchen are two versatile bonus rooms that are not reflected on the public record square footage but which offer wonderfully useful space perfect for guests, home office, or other uses. The backyard is level and beautifully landscaped, and screams "weekend fun." Solar panels are paid for and provide the added bonus of clean power. Fabulous location close to Bushrod Park, the Berkeley Bowl, Whole Foods, and countless College Ave shops & amenities. Also close to, and in the catchment zone for, Peralta Elementary School. Truly a gem and not to be missed!
