Berkeley
Westbrae
One of Berkeley's most affordable communities, Westbrae
is an older Berkeley neighborhood full of character, cultural
diversity, and residential tranquility. Gorgeous community
gardens, a spacious park, playgrounds and a soccer field
make it an ideal place to raise a family.
Westbrae's tree-lined streets are attractive and well
kept. Homebuyers have their choice of Craftsman bungalows,
Spanish-Revival cottages, and post-war suburban-style
homes as well as a few remaining early Victorians and
farmhouses from when the town was first settled.
The jewel of Westbrae is the three-acre Cedar-Rose Park,
a grassy expanse featuring two fenced children's playgrounds,
picnic areas and public tennis courts. A jogging track,
pool, and more are also open to the public at the local
middle school. For shopping, Gilman Avenue is the spot.
Some of our favorite places are Boogie Woogie Bagel Boy,
Berkeley Natural Grocery, Mama Lan's Vietnamese Restaurant,
Coffee Conscious, and New Leaf Garden Gallery, which specializes
in garden fountains and sculptures.
