Circa 1911, this Rockridge bungalow has classic details that evoke the craftsmanship of the era. The original wood built-ins, wainscoting, box beam ceilings and moldings are still present as well as stained glass and lead windows. The inlaid border detail of the hardwood floors, pocket doors dividing the living room and dining room and a stone fireplace (with wood stove insert) have also been preserved. The floor plan creates functional livability with the bath located between the two bedrooms, a sunroom with a wall of windows and views of the garden and a half bath off the kitchen. The bright, spacious and well-designed kitchen with stainless steel appliances & eating area allows a communal experience and has easy access to the outdoors. The deck with built-in seating & arbor, a flagstone patio and a garden provide ample space for outdoor dining, gardening and play. A charming cottage with full bath is great for the occasional guest, office or studio. On a wonderful street in Rockridge, the location is close to BART & College Avenue shops and restaurants.
