Remodeling a multi-family home in Berkeley

The owner of a multi-family home in Berkeley came to New Avenue for a major remodel of a two-bedroom, two-bath rental unit. While parts of the unit were salvageable (e.g., the beautiful redwood and a few of the walls), this unit was almost entirely rebuilt. It needed a new foundation and major work in all areas.

New Avenue created a new design that fit the character of the other unit on the property well. The remodel dramatically increases demand for the home, and the new unit will serve its owners and tenants well for decades to come.

The home includes two bedrooms, two bathrooms, a living area, a kitchen, and a dining room. Upstairs is a storage loft that’s open to the ground floor. This unit will appeal to families, couples, young professionals, and university students.

The homeowners plan to use this home as a rental property for several years. When they’re ready to retire, they may move into the ADU. There are plenty of options, including renting out the ADU, moving into the ADU and renting out the main home, or inviting their adult children to share the entire property with them.
