Property Description
Welcome to 1204 Neilson St, a 2 plus bedroom, 1 plus bath, Berkeley bungalow, that surprises and delights, and epitomizes charming. Traditional on the exterior as well as on the main level, yet the upper level is loft-like, rustic and expansive. The feeling of being in a beach cottage is evident throughout. The home invites you to sit back and relax. It is warm, cozy and cool. The main level features a spacious living room with hardwood floors, and a large front window, a charming eat-in kitchen with tile and butcher-block countertops and a wood beamed ceiling, a sun-filled bedroom with a huge closet, a full bath and a laundry area. The upper level has a soaring wood beamed ceiling, a large primary bedroom with a private balcony and en suite half bath, and an office with a built-in desk and shelving. The office could serve as a nursery, a hobby room or more. The magical, lush backyard and large platform deck are an outdoor oasis and the sweet backyard building* is the perfect spot to practice yoga, paint, write a book, work from home, or whatever your heart desires. The block is coveted by the owners and all its residents and the location is a dream. One block away are a plethora of wonderful restaurants and shops, including Berkeley Natural Grocery, Adega Azul, Headlands Biergaten, Berkeley Bagel, Coffee Conscious, Kiku Sushi, Praaw Thai and more. A new Spanish Tapas restaurant, Meso’n, is scheduled to open soon in the neighborhood, as well. Other nearby amenities include The Ohlone Greenway, North Berkeley BART, Terrace Park and The Gilman District. Home energy score of 6.
