Property is move-in ready.
The property features a well-maintained 1917 Craftsman main residence paired with a fully remodeled, modern 2-bedroom ADU. The main house retains high-quality period details, including original woodwork and hardwood floors, and appears move-in ready with updated kitchen appliances and clean finishes. While the ADU is in excellent condition, the overall score is 'good' because the main structure is over 100 years old and likely contains some vintage systems and infrastructure that do not meet the 'newly built or fully renovated' criteria for an excellent rating.
The property includes a fully remodeled, detached 2-bedroom Accessory Dwelling Unit, offering significant potential for rental income, a private home office, or multi-generational living.
Situated in a highly walkable neighborhood, the home is minutes from UC Berkeley, BART, and the renowned culinary destinations of North Shattuck and Monterey Market.
This 1917 Craftsman retains its stately period details, including original woodwork, high ceilings, and hardwood floors, providing a timeless aesthetic and over 3,000 sq ft of living space.

While the ADU is remodeled, the 1917 main residence may require ongoing maintenance or updates to its vintage systems and infrastructure to meet modern efficiency standards.
