About 461 Grizzly Peak Blvd
Berkeley Hills Charmer
Versatile, yet traditional floor plan with plenty of plus spaces. 3 BR/2 BA main house with a separate 1 BR/1 BA above attached garage. Not just a house -- a beautiful piece of history full of original details, available for the first time in over 60 years. An expansive, brick porch welcomes you into the high-ceilinged entrance with a majestic staircase. Exquisitely refinished elegant wood flooring runs through most of the home, and diamond-leaded glass windows accent the living room. The primary bedroom has two attached rooms: a sunroom and a library/office. The ground floor includes a spacious living room with fireplace and built-ins, family room, dining room, and dedicated laundry room. The property features a long circular driveway, an oversized one-car garage, and ample off-street parking. The electrical system has been upgraded to remove knob-and-tube wiring and the entire interior has been freshly painted. Potential for view deck off primary bedroom.
Within a few blocks are Dorothy Bolte Park (Spruce) & Tilden Park (trails, the Nature Center, the Little Farm, the Merry-Go-Round, Lake Anza, & the Botanical Garden) as well as 2 bus stops (the 67 & 65 lines), connecting to the UC Berkeley campus & downtown. A short drive to Solano Ave and Kensington shops & 10 min to 3 BART stations.
