Charming light-filled bungalow in an ideal North Berkeley location! Enter the private yard and come up the stone path through grass, flowers and a prolific fig tree onto the inviting front porch. Updated in 2005, this is a bright, cheerful home w/great indoor-outdoor appeal. 2 beds/1 bath on main level with hardwood floors, dual-paned windows, creative details and open kitchen/dining/family room for easy entertaining. Upstairs has a serene master retreat w/private bath & ample storage. Work from home? Play music, make art or practice yoga? There’s a sweet detached studio/office. Lush backyard features a spectacular elm tree, grapevines, and outdoor living space with built-in seating and a fire feature. Detached garage w/laundry, storage and 3rd full bath. With so much to offer on-site and nearby — BART, bike paths, playgrounds, Monterey Market, ACME Baking, Kermit Lynch wines, plus restaurants, shops & cafes on Solano, Gilman, & Fourth St. —you'll never want to go far from home!
