A "Stand-alone" Cottage Condominium

1206 Delaware Street is a contemporary reimagining of a 30's Craftsman cottage into a modern all-electric "stand alone" condominium. This property has a sublime blend of new and original features:

The cottage is set back from the street on a very private site and enjoys a generous side yard perfect for outdoor dining or dreaming.
The new combined kitchen-dining room area is fully modernized with a suite of stainless-steel appliances, new counters, new lighting and new cabinetry. Doesn't everyone always end up in the kitchen?
New hardwood flooring was added to the kitchen-dining area
The traditional "cloak closet" at the front door is now a large closet/cupboard able to accommodate coats and store other items.
The electric heat pump provides heat as well as air conditioning.
The modern bathroom has a walk-in shower, new tile, and a handsome new vanity with a square sink.
The cozy living room retains the vintage "built-ins", and enjoys the natural light from three banks of windows.
Downstairs is a dedicated laundry area with a sink, and a washer and dryer( all electric, of course). This downstairs area has lots of room for storage, a small office, or maybe a spot for exercise. A downstairs door provides access to the back and side yards.
This unit has a designated parking place.
HOA dues are $420 a month, and owners have their own meters for water and electricity.
The property has a sewer certificate, approved by the City of Berkeley. The certificate expires in 2026.
The City of Berkeley granted a BESO exemption for this property ( please see the disclosure package)

Westbrae offers its own brand of shops and stores- from an outdoor beer garden to pan dulce to the legendary Westbrae Nursery, there is plenty to explore! 1206 Delaware Street is equidistant to the Shattuck Avenue and 4th Street Shopping corridors-- each neighborhood offers an eclectic array of shops and restaurants. 

North Berkeley BART is a few blocks away and the Google bus stops there, as do AC transit buses with routes to San Francisco, Oakland, and CAL. There is an area for "casual carpooling" to San Francisco on Sacramento Street, the East side of the North Berkeley BART station.
 The Westbrae  neighborhood is home to several  wonderful City of Berkeley parks including the Cedar-Rose Park, the Ohlone Park, and the fabulous Ohlone Greenway, a 4.5 mile pedestrian and bicycle pathway, which begins in Berkeley and ends at Baxter Creek Gateway Park in Richmond.
