Description

A rare find in one of North Berkeley’s most prized pockets, this spacious, flexible home blends historic charm with modern updates, surrounded by lush gardens. Originally a classic brown shingle cottage, the home was thoughtfully lifted and redone with updated structure & systems, including electrical. With 4 bedrooms & 2 baths, the layout includes living and dining spaces that flow directly into the updated kitchen—ideal for entertaining or everyday ease. Use the expansive lower level as a deluxe primary retreat, in-law suite, or inspiring workplace; the detached 2-car garage offers additional potential. In the garden, layered plantings and a hot tub offer a private escape for quiet mornings or starlit soaks. Blocks from BART, the Gourmet District, and Monterey Market, the location is rated “Very Walkable” & “Biker’s Paradise” by WalkScore. Peaceful, flexible, and wildly convenient, 1715 Jaynes offers uncommon scale and remarkable ease in one of Berkeley’s most sought-after locations.
