On the market for the first time in nearly 50 years, this classic 1925 Craftsman presents a rare opportunity in one of Berkeley's most desirable locations. Set on a beautiful tree-lined street just a few blocks north of the UC Berkeley campus, the home offers 3 bedrooms, 2 baths, 1,763 square feet of living space*, and a nicely proportioned lot of nearly 5,000 square feet*. The home features spacious living and dining rooms, nicely sized bedrooms, and original Craftsman character throughout. An upstairs bedroom enjoys peekaboo views toward San Francisco, with additional glimpses from the living room. Out back, a terraced yard offers plenty of room for gardening and outdoor living. A true fixer and compelling restoration opportunity, the property offers tremendous potential for a buyer ready to make it their own. A neighborhood walking path just down the block provides a direct connection toward campus, with the shops, restaurants, and amenities of North Berkeley close at hand. Bring your contractor, your creativity, and your vision. With its classic architecture, generous lot, and exceptional location, 2605 Hilgard is an exciting opportunity to create something special. *Per public record.
