1425 Mcgee Ave

Owned since 1985 by Berkeley's David Lance Goines, this charming 1923 brown-shingled craftsman is quintessential Berkeley! Inside, an abundance of original details, including oversized baseboards, picture trim moldings, and period light fixtures. Set on a corner lot & wrapped with a green lawn. The entryway is convenient for coats & keys. From there, wood floors & original windows add richness. The living room features a fireplace. Spillover from the living room to the dining room which has a fresh coat of paint paired with the original light & built-ins. Both bedrooms are served by a refreshed bathroom: new vanity, light & modern mirror. The shower has been retiled & the historic tile floors stay! A kitchen is as cute as can be-- it's minimalist in design, with maximum storage. While the Wedgwood stove is the star of the room, high-quality cabinets impress. Adjacent is a breakfast nook. The laundry room serves as access to the backyard as well as a pantry. In the yard, a deck, mature trees, foliage, old bricks & fountain statue. Has a finished garage; continue using it as an art studio or modify to park here again. Don't miss your chance to own a piece of Berkeley history in one of its most desirable neighborhoods, Northbrae.
