Welcome to 1420 Catherine — a simply charming home in one of North Berkeley’s most desirable neighborhoods. Perched on a sunny corner lot, this light-filled 2-bedroom, 1-bath residence has been lovingly cared for by the same family for years. Step inside to a bright living room with a classic fireplace, a cheerful dining room, gleaming hardwood floors, and fresh interior paint. The updated kitchen is just as delightful, featuring newer appliances and a custom microwave nook. A spacious bonus room offers laundry, a workbench, and generous storage space. Outside, the front garden bursts with wildflowers in spring and summer, alongside succulents, roses, lemons, and chile peppers. The back garden patio is “cute as a button,” with mature succulents and seasonal berries — the perfect retreat for relaxing or entertaining. The location is unbeatable: North Berkeley BART, Monterey Market, ACME Bread, Headlands Brewing, and Cedar Rose Park are all just moments away. Simply put, 1420 Catherine is the kind of home people fall in love with — and the kind of neighborhood they never want to leave.
