Tucked along a leafy Rockridge street on the border of Berkeley’s Elmwood neighborhood, this freshly remodeled two-bedroom, two-bath condo blends the timeless character of brown-shingle architecture with the ease of modern living. Built in 1989 as part of a boutique three-unit HOA with no monthly fees, the home combines privacy with thoughtful community. Inside, warm wood and a welcoming fireplace soften the open spaces. Recessed lighting casts a gentle glow, while broad windows gather the day’s light. The kitchen and baths are newly remodeled—offering a move-in ready residence that feels less like a condo, more like a private home with off-street parking. Recent system upgrades include a new roof and attic insulation, a new heat pump, and solar. Step outside to your generous private patio: a rare retreat for morning coffee, alfresco suppers, or evenings under the stars. Here, where Oakland meets Berkeley, you inherit the best of both worlds—Rockridge’s foodie landmarks, Elmwood’s local charm, and the walk-everywhere lifestyle that makes this neighborhood so beloved.
