Property Description

This charming, centrally located Craftsman bungalow is scaled perfectly—it's small, but mighty. If you're looking to consolidate, downsize, or put your foot on the first rung of the Berkeley housing ladder, you've found your new home. Walk into the spacious living area featuring accent stained-glass windows and a fireplace with artisan tiles. It's bright and cheerful—naturally lit with southern-facing, generous windows. 1741 Derby St. features gleaming wood floors, a spacious bedroom, ample closets, and an eat-in kitchen. A second bedroom is perfect for working at home or putting up the crib. Whether it's a Zoom call or nap time, enjoy the quiet calm while you look out at your trees. Spend a romantic evening sitting by the fire. Display your favorite house-warming gifts in the period-authentic, built-in cabinet in the kitchen. The kitchen features a gas stove, dishwasher, plenty of counter space and storage, plus a morning-sun-drenched dining nook. Host family and friends under the fairy lights in the backyard, or relax on the deck with your book and a coffee. The arts, great restaurants, shopping, a great library, a well-equipped YMCA, and excellent transit are all in nearby Downtown. Your dream home is a reality, right where you want to be. Welcome home.
