Description
This 1925 Craftsman bungalow in Berkeley’s coveted Thousand Oaks neighborhood has modern improvements and old fashioned pride of ownership. Stunning stained glass windows, depicting pastoral bay scenes, fill the home with color and artistry. The home is thoughtfully updated while preserving its rich hardwood floors, thick moldings, tray ceilings, and built-ins surrounding the fireplace. The custom kitchen blends period craftsmanship with modern convenience, while the updated bath and added half bath in the primary bedroom enhance comfort. A sunroom, wrapped in windows, offers the perfect space for work or relaxation with views of the lush native garden. Outside, a spacious brick patio invites dining under the stars, while a natural stone area carves out space for a reclining lounge chair, and shaded bench create a peaceful retreat. The converted garage, now a bright art studio with a large garden-facing window, retains its original doors for flexible use. Meticulously maintained with impeccable taste, this home is just a short stroll to Solano Avenue’s cafés, shops, and restaurants. It is also just around the corner from Thousand Oaks School Park. Walkscore of 94, "Walker's Paradise".
