    1914 charm, fully restored to its original vintage charm. This apartment feels like an entire home - master bedroom shares no walls with others. Sitting room can be converted to a 2nd bedroom. A great option for one couple or two roommates. SF is just 20 minutes away. Minutes from the freeway. Steps away from AC Transit bus lines that go right to downtown Berkeley or MacArthur BART. Many highly-rated restaurants a short walk away in Temescal. Walk Score 93! Cozy Craftsman with all original hardwood The owners lived in this unit, and lovingly restored the living room and kitchen to its original vintage charm, while upgrading the electricity, plumbing, and insulation to modern standards and adding creature comforts like dishwasher, two gas fireplaces, and fiber internet. The sunny bedroom has vaulted ceilings, skylight w/ remote-controlled black-out shade, fireplace, custom built-in media cabinet, and carved wood armoire. Kitchen features a double drainboard sink, wedgewood stove (the BTUs are amazing for anyone who loves to cook!), custom built butcher block countertops, and moveable island. The bathroom has a full-sized tub/shower and floor-to-ceiling built-in cabinet for ample storage. Bonus space - A modern, newly built, 500 square foot space, complete with full bathroom, two separate rooms, and flex area. Perfect for a home office, workout area, huge closet, and/or theater room! There is direct access to the laundry, garage, and out to the street. In-floor radiant heating throughout the entire basement (yes, even the bathroom!) means you will always be comfortable, even on the coldest winter days. And during the hottest days of summer, this lower level stays at least 10 degrees cooler than the rest of the house. Bright windows bring in tons of daylight. It is the perfect space for year-round peaceful concentration. Exterior features: Direct access to washer/dryer, with shared storage area. Front of house has a latched gate for entry, locking mailbox, and front porch with area to keep packages away from street view.
