New Listing: Classic Berkeley Brown Shingle Craftsman that needs a Kind Hand & Heart

 

Located in the Heart of the Elmwood shopping district, just below the Iconic Claremont Hotel, this 1910 Berkeley Brown- Shingle offers an amazing opportunity to renovate your dream home. This home has been in the same family for over 43 years. While original in many ways (consider the converted coal burning furnace in the cellar!) the useful life of the bath and kitchen has run out. You can control the destiny of this home for the next Century. It will be up to you to bring new life into this Grand old home. It’s like working on a Grand Master - The classic interior and exterior exhibits the architecture at the height of the Craftsman Movement and its connections with Natural elements. Unadorned Redwood Paneling and trim run throughout the house. The Formal Dining room and the spacious Southern facing Grand Living Room make great use of the woodwork, creating a welcoming and peaceful feel to the rooms.
There is still life in the inlaid oak floors, pocket doors, oversized stair pilasters, original wooden light fixtures, built in dining China hutch (with a pass through service) and coved ceilings offering a great foundation for your ideas and passions.
This home is tucked away on a quiet corner of 2 tree lined streets. Just out the front door you will find a neighborhood labeled as a Walker’s Paradise scoring 91 out of 100 from WalkScore.com This Walker’s paradise includes the following nearby amenities: a bookstore, a dozen (or more) different Restaurants and Cafes to choose from, Eclectic Berkeley style Boutiques of all varieties, Wine Shops, Deli’s, Handmade ice cream, Parks, Pools and even a revived traditional neighborhood Movie House. The UC Berkeley Campus is within an easy reach and is just 10 block close. The same distance Southward leads to nearby Rockridge offering even more opportunities to shop and dine. The commuting options are easy. BART is close by in Rockridge and South Berkley. AC Transit Bus service runs on College Avenue, and the freeway is close at hand just up Tunnel Road.
