Property is moderate renovation needed.
Built in 1932, this property retains vintage charm but features a dated kitchen and bathrooms that appear to be over 20 years old. While it has undergone seismic upgrades and the hardwood floors are well-maintained, the presence of older wall heaters and dated appliances indicates a need for minor repairs and modern updates.
Situated just blocks from UC Berkeley and the Graduate Theological Union, this property offers exceptional walkability to campus, local cafes, and shops in a highly desirable, historic neighborhood.
This 1932 Spanish Revival home features unique vintage details including curved vaulted ceilings, hardwood floors, and dual fireplaces, providing a level of charm and aesthetic appeal rarely found in modern builds.
The building has been seismically upgraded for peace of mind, while the interior is flooded with natural light via multiple skylights and an operable kitchen skylight, creating a bright and airy atmosphere.
Living area discrepancy between mls listing and other public or private record. mls listing living area = 900, other record living area = 7036.
At 900 square feet for a two-bedroom, two-bathroom configuration, the interior layout may feel restrictive for buyers seeking more spacious common areas or larger bedroom footprints.
Despite seismic improvements, the 1932 construction may present challenges typical of older homes, such as aging utility systems or the need for specialized maintenance of period-specific materials.
