About this Property

Every detail of this beautifully updated two-bedroom, one-and-a-half-bath home has been carefully considered bringing it to its full potential. The result? A space that feels effortlessly modern yet warmly inviting—blending style and comfort in perfect balance. The kitchen is the heart of the home—spacious, bright, and beautifully executed. Top-of-the-line appliances, sleek finishes, and a generous eat-in area make it a natural gathering spot, while an oversized passthrough window keeps the conversation flowing. The open dining and living areas offer both ease and elegance, with a bay window framing the rear yard. With bedrooms at opposite ends of the home, privacy is effortless. Both exude calm and refinement, while the skylit bath—elegantly refreshed—offers a crisp, modern aesthetic. Downstairs, a spacious bonus area invites endless possibilities, along with laundry area and powder room. Outside, the backyard is designed for California living, with a brick patio, lush lawn, and space for gardening, play, and entertaining. Ideally located just a few blocks from Hilltop Elementary, near charming “downtown” Kensington, the best of Berkeley, and miles of trails in Tilden Park, this home is a rare opportunity—completely reimagined for your new chapter.
