Property Description

Welcome to this classic Craftsman bungalow in the heart of Rockridge, reimagined and thoughtfully updated for modern living. Set on one of the neighborhood's most desired streets, this home offers a vibrant, tight-knit community and an unbeatable location close to bustling restaurants, local shops, and easy commuter access. Stepping inside, a sunny enclosed porch leads to a stylish entry and light-filled interior with verdant treetop views from nearly every window. The beautiful living room features a gas fireplace, flowing seamlessly into a formal dining room complete with original etched glass and carrara marble topped built-in hutches. The chef’s eat-in kitchen is a culinary dream, featuring a commercial stainless steel 6-burner range with a warming tray, generous countertops, a breakfast bar, and a cozy dining table area. Directly off the kitchen, step out onto the back deck to enjoy California’s quintessential indoor/outdoor lifestyle overlooking manicured landscaping and veggie beds. The main residence includes two spacious bedrooms, one including a custom built-out closet, refinished hardwood floors, and abundant natural light. The main house's updated full bath seamlessly blends original charm. Adding incredible versatility is a permitted detached 1-bath architect-designed studio—ideal as an in-law suite, au pair room, or home office.
