Welcome home to one of Berkeley's most coveted pockets. Tucked along Alcatraz Avenue just steps from the College Avenue corridor, this generously sized single-family residence offers approximately 2,511 square feet of light-filled living space, with 5 bedrooms and 3 bathrooms a rare and roomy footprint in a neighborhood where space like this seldom comes available. The lower level showcases beautifully refinished oak floors, while a grand staircase leads to a second level finished with newly installed luxury engineered wood floors. The home has been freshly painted throughout, and new light fixtures bring a modern glow to the living areas and bedrooms. A flexible floor plan gives everyone room to breathe, and the kitchen presents an exciting opportunity to open up the space between it and the adjacent dining room.
