About This Property
In the heart of Westbrae is a sunny green house, with a flower garden and big south-facing front window. Maybe this is a house you've walked past many times, to Acme Bread for morning coffee and pastries – just two blocks away – or on your way to Monterey Market for fresh produce. Maybe you've driven by, heading to Cedar Rose Park for pickleball, or the half mile to North Berkeley BART. This little house lives large in many hearts, and we hope you'll come visit. We suggest: bathing in the natural light of the living room's big picture window. Deciding which window is best to read next to. Taking note of the creamy chocolate hue of the original hardwood floors. Peering into the dining room's built-ins, both vintage and functional. Picking which bedroom will be yours – sunny and street-facing, or private and cozy towards the backyard? Poking your head into the remodeled bathroom, gleaming in crisp taupe. Mapping out a future dinner party, lit up by a kitchen designed in cheerful blues and greens. This kitchen is lovely, and functional, but most importantly, it's a happy kitchen; for being together, eating together, for sleepy waffles and Sunday coffee in the breakfast nook. And, it flows easily to the backyard, for outdoor dinners and summer sunsets. Now, here's the big picture of 1229 Hopkins: a mile to Solano, a mile to the 4th St shops, 1.4 miles to North Berkeley's Gourmet District. 1229 Hopkins sits in the middle of a perfect Venn diagram, of darling house and lively location. Houses like this are why we all can't get Berkeley out of our hearts. Come and stay a while. | Home energy score of 9
