About 4012 N Newton Street
This beautifully maintained Craftsman bungalow in the heart of Berkeley has the kind of character you can't replicate —freshly refinished original hardwood floors, period trim and architectural details intact, and a light-filled interior that feels both timeless and completely move-in ready. As you enter, an enclosed porch with a banquette and outdoor heater welcomes you and extends your living space through most of the year. Inside, a bright living room opens to the adjoining dining room, and the main level features two bedrooms: an ample front bedroom with an ensuite bath and walk-in closet, and a second that works equally well as a bedroom or office. The updated kitchen is a standout — butcher block counters, designer penny tile backsplash, stainless appliances, and generous counter space that makes cooking a pleasure. Downstairs, the finished basement is a genuine extension of the home, complete with a full bathroom, an oversized non-conforming bedroom with an egress window, an open flex space perfect for a reading nook or fitness area, dedicated laundry counter space, and a private second office that could be configured as a closet. Outside, the backyard is a quiet retreat, fully fenced, with a great blend of mature trees, yard, and patio space for entertaining. An oversized two-car garage with generous storage easily handles your vehicles, hobbies, and gear with ease. Situated on a quiet, non-through street just a short stroll from Tennyson Street's best restaurants, coffee shops, and boutiques, this is Berkeley living at its best.
