About This Property

One look, and it's easy to imagine rising on a typical morning, chatting with your neighbors, and walking over to College or Telegraph Avenue for coffee. This lovely Craftsman home provides charm and light in every one of its rooms. The welcoming, fire-lit, living room, with its big picture window, is an equally fine setting for entertaining and private evenings at home. Warm dinners unfold in the large dining room with its original built-ins. Everyone loves to hang in the kitchen, and this one's perfect: freshly redone with new quartz counters and ceramic tile backsplashes, and new gas range and fridge - it's a good cook's dream. The kitchen gives direct access to a tranquil back garden that provides a refuge from the beat of urban life. Here you'll find mature, low-water, low-maintenance landscaping, a sunny deck, and a hot tub set to the rear for privacy: take a deep breath and relax. Close to Rockridge BART, shopping, dining, parks, libraby and the farmer's market.
