Enjoy easy living in this extensively updated Mediterranean-style bungalow in Berkeley’s Poet’s Corner district. Offering an inviting, open layout that allows conversation, friends, and food to flow effortlessly from kitchen to dining to living and outdoors. Its kitchen underwent a top-to-bottom remodel in 2020-21. Its primary bedroom suite serves up style and comfort with a newly remodeled bath and and walk-in closet. Engineered hardwood flooring throughout the living spaces adds warmth and sophistication. Its cozy and bright third bedroom is absolutely perfect for a home office, guest room, or media room. The home is situated on a 5,320 square foot lot with much of it dedicated to its private, fenced-in backyard. The yard’s south-facing exposure, stone-paved patio areas, and drip-irrigated grassy zones make for low-maintenance year-round enjoyment. A detached garage structure offers possibilities for storage, or a potential ADU. The San Pablo and Dwight Avenue commercial village is just around the corner and offers an exciting variety of restaurants, cafés, local shops, and Berkeley’s iconic Ecology Center. Berkeley Bowl West & San Pablo Park are also near. The neighborhood is one of the Bay Area's most transit sensible with 2 BART stations 1.6 miles near. Bike Score™ 91.
