Tucked away on a quiet court in Berkeley's sought-after Monterey/Hopkins neighborhood, this beautifully updated split-level home blends classic Mediterranean architecture with one of the city's most walkable locations. Just one block from Monterey Market, Berkeley Horticultural Nursery, neighborhood cafés, restaurants, artisan bakeries, and St. Mary's College High School, it's the kind of location where morning coffee, weekend trips to the market, and favorite local spots naturally become part of your routine. Signature tile rooflines, graceful arches, and timeless architectural details give the home its distinctive Mediterranean character. Fresh interior and exterior paint, newly refinished hardwood floors, updated lighting throughout, and refreshed bathrooms complement the home's original architecture while creating a light, welcoming atmosphere. The split-level floor plan offers an ideal balance of gathering spaces and private retreats. Upstairs are three bedrooms and a full bath, while the main level features a gracious living room with elegant coved ceilings, a formal dining room with built-in cabinetry, and an updated kitchen with a sunny breakfast nook. Downstairs, a bonus family room provides additional living space, while the converted garage offers flexibility as a fourth bedroom, home office, or creative studio. A second full bathroom, dedicated laundry area, and abundant basement storage and workshop space complete the lower level. The private backyard is designed for year-round enjoyment with a redwood deck beneath a corner pergola, a level lawn for play or gardening beneath mature magnolia and maple trees, and a storage shed. A driveway provides convenient off-street parking. Enjoy the quiet of a tucked-away court while being just a short stroll from Berkeley's favorite neighborhood destinations. North Berkeley BART is within walking distance, AC Transit bus lines are nearby, and convenient access to Interstate 80 makes commuting throughout the Bay Area easy. BESO Home Energy Score is 6!
