Bring your ideas, dreams & contractors to this charming cottage fixer. It offers original wood floors throughout, a lovely living room w/fireplace, a cozy dining area, a good size kitchen that overlooks and entices you into the large, flat rear yard. The options are limitless with expansion and remodel opportunities in almost every direction—from the home itself to the large basement to the detached garage. There are endless possibilities with the lot sized, at 6480 sq. ft. Ideally situated in the sought-after Oceanview neighborhood, this home is tucked away on a quaint, tree-lined street. Easily commute to San Francisco or stay close to home, and meander just blocks to some of Berkeley's best, the trendy upscale Fourth Street boutiques and restaurants, from Lululemon to the Apple Store to Peet's. It's also a short distance to the Gilman District, with Acme Bread, Kermit Lynch Wines & Whole Foods. With a little vision and some elbow grease 1632 8th Street will be like new.
