Stepping through the front door it is evident that this home has been well maintained, the care given to this home is evident everywhere. Two story entry, spacious living and dining room, gracious windows with views of the bay, French doors open to a large entertaining deck that lives like an outdoor room. Remodeled kitchen with large pantry. Sellers had anticipated adding a second bath, see floor plan in disclosures. Detached Garage with a bay view would make a great studio. Located within walking distance of 2 elementary schools, across the street from a climbing rock, minutes to North Berkeley shopping and transportation.
