    A Victorian beauty has been reimagined for modern living in this fully renovated 4BD/3.5BA home in the heart of Berkeley. From the expansive backyard to the comfortable living areas, this 1978 SQFT home has been thoughtfully redesigned with room to grow with approved ADU plans and two primary suites. The bay windows, a convenient adjacent dining area, an exquisite designer kitchen with top of the line appliances, a flexible space ready as a den, office, or play area, and a powder room. Step through the kitchen’s glass doors onto a deck for wonderful indoor/outdoor living. Entertain, play, or garden in the professionally landscaped backyard boasting raised gardening beds, new fencing, and a large patio. Back inside, the first floor’s primary bedroom suite also opens to the yard and includes a gorgeous spa-like bath and custom closets. Wood floors and recessed lighting span the home.
