Welcome to 2312 Derby St, a quintessential Craftsman bungalow with a history-filled backyard cottage. This handsome 3 bedroom home, close to Berkeley Bowl, The Elmwood shopping district & Ashby BART, exudes charm, care & attention to detail. All original architectural details have been beautifully preserved, including tulip poplar wainscoting, plate rails, picture moldings, built-in cabinetry w/ leaded glass doors, tray ceilings, tall redwood baseboards & hardwood floors. The updated kitchen w/ 6 burner Viking range, mahogany cabinets & 144 bottle bottle Vinotemp wine refrigerator has been thoughtfully remodeled honoring the Craftsman period. The backyard cottage, built in 1917, was once a chili powder factory. It is traditional on the outside and modern and loft-like on the inside. It offers 2 bedrooms, 1 bath, a living rm, kitchen & private yard, & is sited perfectly toward the rear of a large, magical backyard, abundant w/ roses, wisteria & freesia. This is a very special property!
