Built in the 19th century and re-imagined in the 21st century, this fabulous home blends a contemporary aesthetic to the original design, creating a home that's a visual delight and a joy to live in. Renowned Berkeley architect Paul Wang kept many of the original period features for his personal home, then added a 2-story great room addition (kitchen/family room) that includes marble counters, gorgeous wood finishes, abundant natural light, and opens to an enchanting backyard deck. Three bedrooms, two bathrooms and formal living and dining rooms include beautiful hardwood floors, a fireplace and high ceilings. This is a wonderful home for indoor/outdoor living, and is located on the NOBE/Temescal border just blocks to BART and Temescal's great cafes and pubs. Easy freeway access. Walk/bike score 91/96!
