Tastefully renovated Golden Duplex in Poet's Corner with a detached cottage. On the main floor, the sunny living room is anchored by an original fireplace and built-ins. The modern, open kitchen flows seamlessly into the dining room and into an adjacent family room. Two bedrooms, an updated bathroom, and an awesome laundry room complete this level. Upstairs, find a true master bedroom with a generous walk-in closet and full bathroom. If you like to entertain, you'll love how the kitchen and dining areas open right into the backyard, ideal for BBQing, playing, and gardening. In the back, a modern and well-appointed one-bedroom detached cottage awaits. It has a beautiful kitchen and separate entrance and can be used as a rental (it's a Golden Duplex and rent-control exempt), or as extra space for in-laws, friends, or an office. A central location close to many of the great restaurants and stores on San Pablo Ave, convenient to freeway access, and one mile to N. Berkeley BART.
