La Vie en Rose in Southwest Berkeley. This lovely 2 bedroom plus den, 2 bathroom home on a peaceful tree-lined street has been recently remodeled with beautiful finishes. A front foyer invites you to leave your worries behind, and perhaps your shoes to keep pristine the beautiful dark bamboo floors that highlight the home. It's also an inviting place for morning coffee and tete-a-tete with the friendly neighbors. Natural light fills the home through many double-pane windows. The open combination living and dining room has direct access to the modern kitchen, truly conducive to entertaining, and a second full bathroom, which is a luxury in this neighborhood. Stainless steel kitchen appliances and a full-size stackable washer and dryer are fantastic amenities, along with a recently updated roof and plumbing and electrical systems, just 4 years old. The master suite in the rear boasts a full contemporary bathroom and ample closet space, and its large windows beautifully frame the glorious pink roses in the yard. Bright and lovely, this is just what a master retreat should be. The adjacent den or office area can house your collection of books, artwork, photos, or musical instruments. This is la vie en rose served on a platter. The landscaped backyard is great for enjoying the sunny weather of Berkeley which lends itself to dining al fresco and summer barbecues. The plum tree produces ample fruit that the owner has been able to share with neighbors. The planter box will inspire you to cultivate your own organic vegetable garden. The plum tree in the yard fruits abundantly, allowing the owners to share with the neighbors; the neighbors on either side of 1327 Derby have a friendly relationship with the sellers. The large garage at the rear of the property offers exciting possibilities; imagine a guest suite, hobby workshop, gym/yoga studio, or play or recreation room.
