  Beautiful updated North Berkeley 4BR/2BA home + studio, lovely gardens, excellent southern exposure

The Pechin House is a 1909 historic Foursquare designed by notable architect William Wharff. Located on one of North Berkeley’s beloved leafy streets, and in the Gourmet District, this home marries timeless craftsmanship with thoughtful updates. Enter from the columned covered porch into the paneled foyer with its original curved stained glass window. This leads to the living room with west-facing leaded glass windows. Beyond that, restored pocket doors reveal a formal dining room with a fireplace and built-in cabinetry. Nearby, a versatile study with French doors connects to the rear deck, while the bright, modern kitchen opens to the garden. A renovated full bath on the main level adds flexibility. Upstairs, a wide hall with built-in seating leads to three generous bedrooms, an additional flex space or smaller bedroom, ample storage, a laundry area, and an updated bath. This home has wood floors, tall coved ceilings, and a stellar southern exposure that bathes the interiors in natural light throughout the day. Beyond the main residence, discover the detached studio. Ideal as a guest retreat, creative workspace, or potential ADU, it has vaulted ceilings, skylights, French doors, and a cozy Irish stove. The expansive, level backyard features a wrap around deck, wide lawn, a brick patio, raised veggie beds, and mature fruit trees. Solar and seismic upgrades among many other improvements, mean you can move in and relax. With a Walk Score® of 98, and energy score of 5, this home has it all and is just moments to top rated shops, dining, parks, schools and transit.
