Nestled on one of Berkeley’s most coveted tree-lined blocks, this classic bungalow sits conveniently between the Gourmet District, Monterey Market, and the shops of Solano Avenue. Inside, hardwood floors, a generous living room with a fireplace, and a separate formal dining room showcase the home’s original charm. The recently remodeled kitchen has new counters, floors, and appliances added in 2024-2025. Stylish and generously sized, it offers the ideal counter and cabinet space for cooking and entertaining. With two bedrooms and one-and-a-half baths, there’s room to adapt the layout to your needs. A large basement doubles as a workshop and laundry area, providing additional storage and creative possibilities.* Outside, the deep, freshly landscaped lot suggests space for expansion or a personal garden retreat.** A long driveway provides ample parking and access. At the rear of the property is a large walk-in shed. Recent updates include a new roof (2022), a central furnace (2021), and an upgraded electrical panel (2023). This location places you within easy reach of local markets, cafés, parks, gyms, the North Berkeley Library, and a vibrant community. First time on the market in over sixty years, this is a rare opportunity to start your next chapter at 1234 Josephine.

As a licensed real estate brokerage, Estately has access to the same database professional Realtors use: the Multiple Listing Service (or MLS). That means we can display all the properties listed by other member brokerages of the local Association of Realtors—unless the seller has requested that the listing not be published or marketed online.
The MLS is widely considered to be the most authoritative, up-to-date, accurate, and complete source of real estate for-sale in the USA.
Estately updates this data as quickly as possible and shares as much information with our users as allowed by local rules. Estately can also email you updates when new homes come on the market that match your search, change price, or go under contract.
