3037 Ellis St, Berkeley, CA 94703

Located in the vibrant arts and antiques Lorin district of Berkeley, this 3-bedroom, 1-bath Craftsman bungalow is perfect for your urban homestead. Inside, you'll find authentic touches such as hardwood floors, some parquet, picture molding, fireplace, original built-ins, decorative and functional wrought-iron by local artist Renaldo Ratto of Iron Leaf Forge, and a farmhouse-inspired kitchen with cobalt blue accents in the floor and tiled backsplash. The kitchen features stainless LG and Bosch appliances and a genuine O'Keefe & Merritt 6-burner gas stove. The large laundry room inspires the thought of a second bathroom, next to the third bedroom/office, which has its own entrance. Step out the back door onto a wide deck, great for entertaining and grilling. With redwood raised beds and a chicken coop in the fenced back yard, it's easy to grow your own herbs and flowers - and perhaps collect fresh eggs. The Tuesday Berkeley Farmer's Market is a few level blocks away; Berkeley Bowl and Whole Foods are also close by. Nearby streets feature an array of cafes, shops, and the Sweet Adeline Bakery, as well as the Ashby Stage, weekend flea market, and the Ed Roberts campus.
