1171 Glen Ave

Nestled on a quiet lower Berkeley Hills street, a block from the Rose Garden and four blocks from the heart of the Gourmet Ghetto, rests this adorable updated cottage with bay views out the front and a sunny, deep, level yard out back. Blooming Wisteria greets your entry through a covered porch to a welcoming center foyer. Refinished original wood floors and wall-to-wall windows with integrated windowseat span the oversized living room: Cozy up to the period tiled fireplace, or spread out across its full 24.5-foot length, taking in expansive Bay and City views. A formal dining room with classic Craftsman-era builtins leads to a cute updated kitchen that steps out to the deck and backyard, whose highlight is its own tiny redwood grove at the rear. Two bedrooms and a fully renovated bathroom share a private hall separating them from the rest of the main floor. A partial walkout basement has laundry and room to expand. Sewer lateral and BESO compliant.
