215 Berkley Avenue

Looking for a Craftsman style bungalow for less than 300k? 215 Berkley is a renovated 1930s bungalow with plenty of old soul, including a spacious front porch, original hardwood floors, and a picturesque fireplace. The kitchen, master bath and HVAC were all redone when the house was remodeled, and the house also features a newer roof.

The current owners have added a secondary bath, a gas tankless hot water heater, a tile floor in the laundry room, and updates to the outdoor living area. The backyard features a large deck, a storage shed, and an expansive, fenced-in yard. The washer, dryer, and refrigerator all convey.

A short walk to the Swamp Rabbit Trail, Greenville Yoga, and Velo Valet, and multiple art studios, on a tree-lined street with sidewalks, as well as a 10 min drive to downtown Greenville and Travelers Rest and Paris Mountain, the location and architecture of this bungalow highlights many of the features residents love about historic San Souci, whose name is French for "Without Cares." The San Souci Neighborhood Alliance is the active neighborhood nonprofit that helps organize the community garden located next to St. Marks Methodist Church, a garden concert series, outdoor movies, and art events, as well as neighborhood beautification.

The redevelopment of the 240-acre Union Bleachery Mill site a mile away, which is set to break ground by the end of the year, into a mixed-use development with restaurants and entertainment, as well as a Swamp Rabbit spur that may extend as far as Paris Mountain, promises further revitalization and growth.
