Nestled on a quiet street in the heart of Berkeley, this charming brick home is just blocks from the vibrant Tennyson business district. This classic 3-bed/1-bath bungalow perfectly blends historic character with thoughtful modern updates. Step into the light & bright open floor plan that seamlessly connects the living & dining areas-ideal for both relaxing & entertaining. The kitchen offers a thoughtfully designed workspace with plenty of storage and an island for additional prep space. A cozy breakfast nook off the kitchen overlooks the private backyard, a great spot to enjoy your morning coffee. Two of the bedrooms are generously sized, while the third is perfectly suited for a home office or nursery. The recently remodeled bathroom features great natural light, an oversized vanity, and ample cabinetry. Notable features include hardwood floors throughout the front of the house, high ceilings, and a built-in entertainment center. The kitchen opens into a beautifully landscaped, irrigated, and fully-fenced backyard oasis. The outdoor space features raised garden beds, large patio area, and back deck designed for grilling or gathering with friends. The low-maintenance front yard has been xeriscaped with year-round blooms, solar landscape lighting, and a newly added drip irrigation system. The detached garage offers plenty of storage for your gear & gardening tools and is right next to two off-street parking spaces. This home has been lovingly maintained over the past 10 years so you can move in without worrying about replacing major systems-roof was replaced in 2019, as well as the boiler, hot water heater, and all internal plumbing. The basement offers a laundry area with a convenient utility sink and extensive storage cabinets. You can't beat this location- just a short walk or quick bike ride to all the restaurants & entertainment along Tennyson, Berkeley Lake Park & the Scheitler Rec Center.
