This classic Berkeley Hills Mediterranean offers timeless charm, a thoughtful layout, and a spacious rear yard. The main living spaces are positioned at the front of the home. The bright, sunny living room features a fireplace, while the spacious dining room includes an alcove and connects to the breakfast nook. The kitchen blends old-world charm with select modern updates. With one bedroom on the main level and two bedrooms on the upper split level, the home offers a comfortable balance of privacy and flow. Both upper bedrooms overlook the rear yard, and one opens directly onto the back deck. The lower level provides flexible bonus space, ample storage, and interior access to the garage. The expansive rear yard features a large deck, gas BBQ, and mature trees--a blank slate ready to be customized. There's plenty of room for play, entertaining, or creating a lush garden retreat. Ideally located just minutes from Dorothy Bolte Park and Tilden Park, with its beloved merry-go-round, hiking trails, and Little Farm. UC Berkeley is also nearby, and there is easy access to downtown Berkeley, shops, and restaurants. Home Energy Score: 1
