All three bedrooms and two updated tiled bathrooms are on one level, giving the home a practical layout that’s easy to live in. The primary bedroom opens directly to the deck and backyard. The remodeled kitchen connects seamlessly to the outdoors, with French doors opening to a spacious deck and backyard. A bonus room could work well as a family hangout, home office or both. The outdoor spaces are a true highlight. The front lawn and private backyard are ready to enjoy, featuring mature landscaping and fruit trees including lemon, plum, Asian pear, apple, and persimmon, along with a beautiful walnut tree that adds shade and character. Convenient access from 9th Street to the yard could also allow for a separate entrance if you choose to add an ADU in the future. Energy Score is 7. The location is another standout. ACME Bread is about a five-minute walk away, San Pablo Avenue offers a variety of local shops (Cafe Leila!) , and 4th Street is nearby for cafés, restaurants, and shopping. North Berkeley BART is roughly a 13m stroll, and James Kenney Park is a block away by for tennis, playground time, or time outdoors.
