Property Description

THE FEELING: Tucked on a classic North Berkeley street, 1208 Walnut feels like an extension of Live Oak Park. Mature trees surround the home, and verdant views fill every window. A front gate opens onto an enclosed deck framed by gorgeous wisteria vines, a private, leafy welcome that sets the tone for the home inside. THE HOUSE: This charming three-bedroom, one-bath home has the warmth and character of a true Berkeley cottage. A brick fireplace anchors the living room, and abundant natural light and hardwood floors flow throughout. The kitchen is full of charm, and bonus spaces offer room for a home office, tinker space, and plentiful storage. Through the back door, an enchanting private and terraced yard with multiple levels is ready for gardening or quiet relaxation. THE HEART OF THE OPPORTUNITY: Location, setting, and character. The home is ready for someone to restore its inherent beauty. For a buyer with vision, this is a rare chance to bring a Berkeley cottage back to life in one of the city's best locations. IN THE NEIGHBORHOOD: The location is excellent. Live Oak Park is just steps away, and the shops, cafés, and restaurants of the Gourmet Grotto are close by. Solano Avenue, UC Berkeley, and Downtown Berkeley BART are all nearby, with many other amenities only moments away. Energy Score: 5
