The story
Set above the street in Northbrae, 1101 Amador Avenue blends classic 1920s character with light-filled interiors and inviting garden spaces. Rich wood trim, hardwood floors, and a fireplace lend warmth to the living room, while the adjoining dining room creates a welcoming setting for gatherings. Generous windows frame leafy neighborhood outlooks, and the bright kitchen offers ample cabinetry and a cozy breakfast nook to start the day. Upstairs, three bedrooms enjoy lovely natural light and elevated outlooks. Both the primary suite and upstairs hall bathroom have been recently updated. A separate lower-level space with its own entrance, kitchen, and bathroom adds flexibility for guests, extended family, or working from home.* The terraced backyard offers a delightful mix of lawn, stone-lined planting beds, mature greenery, and relaxing spaces. Enjoy meals on the covered patio, or find a quiet spot on the upper deck. A detached two-car garage provides parking and storage. Practical updates include a new roof (2024) and an updated electrical panel and wiring (2026). Reached by a garden stairway, this distinctive home offers a sense of separation from the street. Ideally located between the Gourmet District, Hopkins Corridor, and Solano Ave shops and restaurants, the best of Berkeley is close at hand. 1101 Amador is a wonderful opportunity to enjoy its enduring charm while adding your own personal touches.
