About this Property

1296 Monterey Ave isn’t the kind of place you notice right away. It’s tucked back behind another house, almost like it wants to stay a little hidden. That’s part of the charm—once you find it, you feel like you’ve discovered a little retreat. A creek runs nearby, adding just enough of that calming background sound to remind you nature is close, even in the middle of Berkeley. The living room is bright and spacious, with doors that open out onto a deck that feels like it’s perched in the trees. Surrounded by greenery and overlooking the creek, it’s the kind of spot where mornings start slow with coffee and evenings stretch long with friends. The 3 spacious upstairs bedrooms all have their own personality. One of them has this little nook that works just as well for a desk as it does for a play space. In addition there’s a bonus room with wood paneling that feels like it’s been there forever—warm, cozy, and perfect for late-night projects or curling up with a book. Downstairs, there’s a huge bedroom with a half bath that could easily be turned into a roomy primary suite if you wanted. And while the house feels private, you’re just a short stroll from Hopkins Street with its bakeries, markets, and cafés. It’s that perfect balance of privacy and convenience.
