The new ADU features an open floorplan, two bedrooms, a modern kitchen and bathroom, laundry, and split AC.

Pros & Cons

Pros

Income-Generating ADU: Features a newly built, full-service 2BD/1BA Accessory Dwelling Unit (ADU), offering significant potential for rental income, multi-generational living, or flexible use.
Comprehensive Renovation: Both the main home and ADU have undergone extensive renovations, providing modern finishes, new appliances, hardwood floors, and move-in ready condition.
Desirable West Berkeley Location: Prime location with excellent walkability and access to UC Berkeley, Berkeley Marina, public transport (BART), and a vibrant array of shopping and dining options.
Enhanced Outdoor Living & Parking: Newly landscaped outdoor spaces with privacy fencing, a parking pad, and a long driveway add significant value for relaxation, entertaining, and convenience.
Top-Rated School Access: Located within a highly-regarded school district, including access to top-rated K-12 public schools like Berkeley High School (rating 8).

Cons

Original Construction Age: Despite extensive renovations, the main home's original build year of 1924 may raise concerns about underlying structural components or systems not fully replaced.
Compact Living Space: The total 1483 sqft for 5 bedrooms and 3 bathrooms (across two units) suggests a relatively compact living arrangement, which might be a consideration for buyers seeking more expansive interior space.
Standard Lot Size: The 3600 sqft lot, while functional, is typical for the area and may not appeal to buyers desiring a larger private outdoor area or significant expansion potential.
