Perched high in the Berkeley Hills along Arlington Avenue, with views of the San Francisco skyline and Bay, 581 Arlington Avenue combines classic 1920s character with thoughtful updates. This Craftsman bungalow offers a split level, two bedrooms, one bathroom, plus a versatile bonus office. A landscaped front yard and welcoming Spanish-tile porch lead to an arched entry portico and rounded top front door, opening into the entry hall and light-filled living room. The dining room with corner built-in connects to a refreshed kitchen and bonus office, flowing seamlessly to a nearly level backyard with a brick dining patio set beneath mature oak trees—an inviting space for gatherings or quiet evenings outdoors.
Practical features include: a one-car garage with laundry area, storage for bikes and gear, plus a long driveway with parking for two more vehicles. Recent updates include a newer roof, furnace, fresh interior and exterior paint, multizone drip irrigation, and completed sewer lateral. Move-in ready today, with huge potential for future expansion.
