A well-Built Berkeley Home on Quiet Street Off Ashby Bart Ideal for a BART-commuting couple, 2 house mates, students, or a work-from-home setup that values peace, good light, and a connection to the neighborhood. This is a modern, carefully renovated home one block from Ashby BART, two blocks from Berkeley Bowl, and surrounded by cafes, parks, schools, and everyday South Berkeley life. Walk Score 94. Bike Score 99. Most errands don't require a car. The home features a vaulted ceiling, brand-new electric appliances, and a layout that feels open yet well segmented. Acoustic insulation in the walls, insulated windows, exterior glass doors, and sliding interior doors make it a genuinely quiet place to live, well suited for working from home or sharing space without friction. The open galley kitchen and breakfast nook open onto a large new deck with bar seating, outdoor curtain rods for privacy, and a beautiful backyard that feels like a small green retreat. Host friends, read in the shade, hang a hammock, or set up a propane fire pit. This is outdoor space meant to be used, not just photographed. Designed and built as a labor of love by local artists, the design draws from cosmopolitan standards while staying grounded in ecological values: energy-efficient appliances, thoughtful space planning, and a conscious material palette (Salvaged urban wood, tiles and no plastics). The result is a small carbon footprint, lower utility bills, and a home that feels good to inhabit.
