About This Home

As of March 2025

Great opportunity for the right buyer! Located in North Berkeley's famous "Gourmet Ghetto" neighborhood near parks, cafes/restaurants and only 1 mile to Solano Ave's many amenities, this single-story home has 2 bedrooms, 1 bathroom, formal living/dining rooms and an eat-in kitchen. The home sits on a large, level lot (4,860 SF), providing plenty of room for additions to the existing house, repairs/new construction, and/or building an ADU for house square footage expansion or potential rental income. The present home needs considerable TLC, but the property offers incredible potential in a highly desirable Berkeley neighborhood. This is an AS-IS sale, with comprehensive inspections and disclosures available. Must see—many attractive and versatile possibilities, so bring your imagination!
