Take the time you need to properly enjoy this beautiful home! Born in the 1920s, this Central Berkeley Mediterranean Craftsman underwent extensive renovation work in the early 2000's with local architect Ann Maria Celona, including carefully considered remodel and retrofit work, replacing lath and plaster with drywall, and the addition of a primary bedroom suite. This graceful home is now the best of 2 worlds: The original Craftsman charm was retained, yet the structure and systems have been modernized. A thoughtfully designed kitchen spills out to a raised, terra-cotta tiled patio through French doors. The backdrop to the patio is an enchanting landscape of brick pathways, mature trees, fruit, flowers, several varieties of berries, and a bright outbuilding with glass paneled doors. The primary suite, with large walk-in closet, dual sink bathroom, and a retreat, also opens out to the patio and a cedar soaking tub. This highly energy efficient home has 14 solar panels with battery back-up, providing energy to a heat pump serving 4 functions: Hot water to the radiant heat system, hot water to the cedar soaking tub, energy throughout the home for lighting and appliances, and an ev charger. 1 block from University Ave, this location has a Walkscore of 90, and a Bikescore of 100!
