1269 Alcatraz Avenue

This 1-bedroom apartment is located in South Berkeley just on the Oakland border and blocks from Emeryville.

The unit is located on the upper floor and gets great morning light in the bedroom and great evening light on its own second-floor balcony....
It is a 1920's building with large molding and lots of charm. The unit has dimmers in the bedroom and living areas and double-paned windows throughout to keep energy bills low.??

The unit is pulled back from the street in a fully fenced off lot, so it feels very private both inside and outside of the unit. In front of the unit are a communal picnic table, BBQ, and a bicycle parking area. In the rear of the unit are a veggie garden and laundry. This unit comes with its own storage shed (~50sqft) to store bicycles, outdoor equipment, etc. In addition, the property has a plum tree, lemon tree, and pepper tree.
