1505 Keoncrest Dr Berkeley, CA 94702

For 37 years, the heartbeat of this home has been its owners, Barbara and Larry. The liquid amber tree they planted 36 years ago to bring shade to the backyard has matured to become a beautiful canopy for a golden patio. The warm parquet flooring inside the front door sets the tone for a home that has the elegance and warmth of yesteryear yet boasts smart energy upgrades in step with modern green standards. From the solar system to the on-demand hot water system, from the upgraded Marvin windows and doors to the electric mini-split heating and AC, this home scored a 10 on the US Dept of Energy Home Energy Score (HES). The location is 2 ½ blocks from Monterey Market and less than a ½ mile from North Berkeley BART meaning a Walk Score® of 84 and Bike Score™ of 95. Seated on the built-in bench on the covered back porch you might occasionally hear some music drift from Crowden Music Center a block away. Grab an apple from the tree out front, they're delicious!
