    What's special

    This utterly charming home is nestled behind a fence near the corner of Acton and Cedar.  When you come home you can close the gate and be in your own world.  Gleaming, newly refinished dark wooden floors lay throughout the main portion of the house. On the entry level, there is a lovely large and light-filled living room with a fireplace, a formal dining room, and a newly refurbished kitchen with new appliances, counters and sink area (August 2017). Down a few steps from the kitchen is a hallway with laundry hookups, a full bathroom, a bedroom and a den. Upstairs there are two large bedrooms, one of which is being used as a relaxing office/den/media room, and two entrances to a delightful deck with green vistas. The garage was converted into the den in a previous iteration of the house, and there is an off-street driveway with parking behind the gate for one car. There is a fun deck off the living room and kitchen area, featuring built-in seating, a garden shed and a lovely winding yard that is like something from Alice in Wonderland. One can only imagine how much fun it would be to play in this yard. Close to chic attractions in Berkeley and offering great commute options, this property is a magic place with all sorts of creative spaces and a positive vibe.

    This property is off market, which means it's not currently listed for sale or rent on Zillow. This may be different from what's available on other websites or public sources.
