Magical Craftsman in a storybook Elmwood setting, conscientiously maintained by its loving owners of many years. With too many upgrades to list - including updated kitchen and baths plus a new foundation - this timeless home blends classic Craftsman character with thoughtful, enduring design. A gracious foyer opens to a warm living room with a cozy fireplace. The adjacent dining room showcases original gumwood cabinetry and paneling. The chef’s kitchen offers abundant prep space, high-end appliances, and excellent functionality, with laundry conveniently nearby. French doors off the kitchen open to a level backyard oasis ideal for indoor-outdoor dining and gardening. A flexible home office / bedroom adjacent to the kitchen also opens to the yard. The main level is completed by another bedroom and full bath, perfect for in-laws, an au pair, or aging in place. Upstairs, the spacious primary suite is quietly located at the rear and features a large walk-in closet. Two additional bedrooms and a generous bathroom complete the upper level. Ideally located near the Elmwood’s shops and cafs, top-rated Berkeley schools, and UC Berkeley, with convenient access to public transit and BART. A rare opportunity to enjoy the coveted 94705 lifestyle. Home Energy Score of 1, report upon request.
