A home with stories to tell & plenty of room to add your own. This 1,161-square-foot, all-brick Berkley ranch has been lovingly adored by the same family across generations. Its history lives in the details, beginning with the balanced brick facade, matching shuttered windows & accent octagonal window on the outside, to the antique milk glass chandelier, glass door knob hardware, custom cabinetry & built-in shelving found in the kitchen, bedrooms & basement within. Natural Hardwood floors have also been preserved beneath the carpeting on the main floor. With three bedrooms, one full bathroom & one half bathroom, the layout offers comfortable everyday living & storage in all the right places. Outside, the spacious backyard leaves room for football games, garden plans & summer gatherings, complemented by a custom 20-by-35-foot deck. Behind the character, several important updates have already been completed: the roof, front porch cement work & paver walkway approach were replaced in 2025, the furnace & central air were updated in 2023, & newer vinyl windows are already in place. With these major components handled, you can focus on the enjoyable part: stepping into homeownership, making intentional improvements & creating a home that reflects your own design vibe - all within Berkley’s walkable community, with neighborhood recreation & everyday conveniences close by. Home is being sold as-is. Could this be your opportunity to put down roots in Berkley?
Royal Gardens, located between Coolidge Highway and Greenfield Road, is a residential and walkable Berkley neighborhood with mid-century ranch streetscapes and pocket parks. The neighborhood’s character concentrates around 12 Mile Road at Coolidge Highway, where sidewalk storefronts, espresso counters, and small-service shops set a steady, everyday rhythm. Brick ranches and tidy bungalows sit on calm blocks with mature trees and short drives to larger retail corridors. Anderson Park adds open lawn and play space that shapes the area’s outdoor routine. Nearby, the Berkley Coffee & Taphouse and the Berkley Theatre anchor local culture with a low-key, community-minded feel.
