Built in 1906 and loved by the same family for nearly 30 years, this charming Gourmet District home has all the good stuff: glorious natural light, high ceilings, original hardwood floors, hand-carved details, beautiful built-ins and a cozy gas fireplace. Level-in from the street, with an en-suite bedroom on the main level, it's also located on one of Berkeley's beloved Bike Boulevards. And while the old Berkeley soul is very much intact, these owners have really taken care of their house. Extensive foundation + seismic work, electrical and plumbing upgrades, trenchless sewer, upgraded windows, rooftop solar, heat-pump HVAC + water heater, and a new roof in 2025. Just off the kitchen, the private courtyard feels like its own little world - quiet, tucked away and made for long dinners outside. And then there's the location: with a Walk Score of Chez Panisse, Cheese Board Collective, Comal, Berkeley Rep, UC Berkeley and so much more are just blocks away. (97 Walk score | 96 Bike Score) A house with history, a whole lot of heart, and nearly three decades of happy living behind it. Now it's ready for what's next. HOME ENERGY SCORE 10
