2428 Jefferson Ave, Berkeley, CA 94703

Bright 2-bedroom, 2-bath Bungalow with detached studio in Central Berkeley! Nestled on a spacious lot and centered around a majestic pine tree, this Craftsman-style charmer comes alive with character and a unique "cottage in the woods" feel. A long driveway allows you to park several cars both inside and outside the fully fenced front yard, while a whimsical park-like setting provides multiple outdoor sitting and gathering areas as well as an impressive two-story treehouse and fun spots that inspire imagination. Offering a living arrangement that is perfect for multi-generational living, a possible future rental setup or even a separate home office studio, the property unites a main house and a detached studio with a full bath and kitchen area (just add the stove!). An efficiently laid out floorplan welcomes you right inside with an open living, dining and kitchen concept that facilitate easy living and entertaining. The kitchen and baths have been lovingly updated to reflect the home's original character. The kitchen makes the most of its space, thanks to a sizable peninsula island with seating, Quartz countertops, penny tile backsplash and stainless steel appliances, including a professional Fisher Paykel gas range. Flow to the rear of the house, where the owner's suite boasts a nice walk-in closet, full bath and double French doors spilling out onto the covered deck -- the perfect place to take your morning tea or coffee. The sunny backyard feels like a private oasis with mature landscaping made up of fruit trees and lush gardens, a hot tub, outdoor shower, firepit, lounge area and a deck for al fresco dining. New designer paint, light fixtures, hardware and plumbing fixtures throughout the main house and studio only further elevate the offering. A central Berkley location means you can walk to downtown and BART. The property is also easily accessible to North Oakland or I-80 for North Bay commuters. Must-see!
