Have you been dreaming of finding an architectural gem yet untouched by a stranger’s vision? This 1907 Brown-shingled Edwardian home has been beloved and maintained in all its glory by the same family for over half a century. The home still features all of its original gleaming wood details and beautiful, enormous windows that wash every room with natural light.
The spacious living and dining rooms are stunning, with graceful coved ceilings and a large pocket door allowing the two rooms to be separated if desired. The dining room here is truly the heart of this home, with lovely built-ins and a cozy window seat that looks out to the verdant side yard, replete with storage and calling you to curl up with a your favorite blanket and a good book.
Upstairs are four spacious bedrooms and a full bath off the wide hallway; with a peek-a-boo view of San Francisco from the rear rooms.
No ugly, dated, incongruous “updates” to rip out; the kitchen and bath are clean and functional blank slates, while the living spaces and bedrooms are simply gorgeous to behold as-is. Newly refinished hardwood floors, updated light fixtures and fresh paint throughout welcome you to move right in and let the soul and architecture inspire future renovations.
A lovely fenced side yard and garden provide outdoor enjoyment; and a solid detached structure offers desirable bonus space for storage, a workshop, or studio space to fit your needs.
Bushrod Park is just 3 blocks away; offering community and open green space; including tennis and basketball courts, a ball field, and a nice playground for the kiddos. Telegraph and nearby College Avenues provide a fabulous array of local dining choices, shopping and amenities to discover; with plenty of public transit so you can leave the car at home.

Home to one of the most prestigious universities in the country, Berkeley offers the intellectual and cultural stimulation from its campus -- which is within walking distance of downtown. Many Berkeley neighborhoods were established in the 1920s, with quiet, tree-lined streets, brown-shingled homes, and lushly landscaped yards. In Thousand Oaks, the original developers preserved ancient oak trees and left rock outcroppings intact. Elmwood, with its thriving business district, remains one of the city’s most sought-after neighborhoods. In Claremont, the Claremont Hotel, a gleaming white Victorian-era landmark, has provided generations of Bay Area residents with a luxurious getaway.
Berkeley has long been at the forefront of culinary innovation. Locals flock to the original Peet’s Coffee & Tea location. For residents who like to savor their meals at home, small retail districts sprinkled throughout Berkeley allow them to shop like Europeans, going from store to store to purchase everything they need. Those in a hurry can always visit major grocery stores nearby.
Neighborhood green spaces abound throughout Berkeley, from small community gardens to the Berkeley Rose Garden -- which boasts more than 3,000 rose bushes. The gem of the area is 2,000-acre Tilden Regional Park, with its miles of biking and hiking trails and the naturally landscaped swimming hole at Lake Anza.
