What's special
Welcome to 1615 Carleton Street, Unit A
Natural light takes center stage in this beautifully maintained ground-floor apartment. Nearly 12 feet of picture windows span the exceptionally spacious living room, overlooking the landscaped courtyard and flooding the home with natural light throughout the day. Warm hardwood floors extend throughout the living areas and bedrooms, adding timeless character and complementing the home's bright, inviting atmosphere.
The refreshed kitchen is equally impressive, featuring another expansive bank of picture windows that fills the space with natural light. Quartz countertops, abundant cabinetry, a gas range, refrigerator, built-in dishwasher, and the convenience of an in-unit washer and dryer make this kitchen as functional as it is attractive.
Both bedrooms are generously sized and feature large closets, one with additional overhead storage. The refreshed bathroom includes ceramic tile flooring, a tiled tub and shower surround, and updated fixtures that blend classic style with modern convenience.
PLEASE NOTE: Unit A remains occupied, and the linked video is a temporary preview recorded while the current residents are preparing to move. The personal belongings and housekeeping shown are not representative of the condition in which the apartment will be delivered. After the residents vacate, the apartment will undergo turnover preparation and professional cleaning before the new tenancy begins. Updated photos and video will be posted once that work is complete.
Set back from the street in a charming four-unit building, the apartment enjoys a quieter setting than many Berkeley rentals while remaining centrally located. Mature trees line Carleton Street, creating a pleasant, walkable neighborhood just minutes from Berkeley Bowl, Downtown Berkeley, Ashby BART, neighborhood cafes, parks, and UC Berkeley.
