Don't miss the opportunity to turn this traditional Berkeley home into something magnificent! Original 1925 home with all of the original charm, but improved enough to leave the buyer with a great blank slate to create a perfect mix of old and new! The original Buffet Cabinet in the dining room adds such charm and nostalgia, while complimentary for today's more casual dining. The owner believes some of the flooring is the original from 1925, but buyer to confirm. The original fireplace further adds to the feeling of the old ready to be brought back to life for today's living. The majority of windows are original and need some love, but maintain the home's character and charm of a bygone era. The living room is a great size to entertain or sit and watch the neighbors go by, it offers endless possibilities. The kitchen is a work-in-progress leaving the buyer to create their ideal kitchen layout, with a large pantry ready for shelves and cabinets; or an office? There is a large basement below the home that has huge potential. The large back level yard is a blank canvas for the buyer to create an orchard or a garden or put in grass for the kids to play! There is tandem parking for 3 cars on the side of the house. So many possibilities!
