Current owners added a large deck, with access from LR, DR, and plus room. Home has elegant terracotta floors in LR and K and wood floors almost everywhere else. LR has soaring beamed ceiling and French doors (topped with lunettes) to the expansive deck. A curving coved stairwell leads to the second floor. Original wrought iron details abound. Several "plus" rooms for play, office, etc., including a leafy "tree-house" room. Location is close to UC campus, Berkeley’s famed “Gourmet Ghetto,” public transport, library, and Solano Avenue. Magnificent!
