But wait, there's more! How much did that house sell for? (Most recent list)

My last post had older data, this one is the most recent available. What's screaming out at me on this one?

Berkeley for the high bid win!

Even during the recession of 2008 & dramatic dip in the market that came with it, Berkeley home values (especially North Berkeley) suffered less than many surrounding areas. Berkeley continues it's its march onward with a property on Ward which closed last week for $1,659,000, 44% over it's $1,150,000 asking price. It is a beautiful traditional home with 4 bedrooms, 2 bathrooms, a glass enclosed sun room, a finished bonus space, and a lovely, level back yard. Not to mention that it comes with the current gold standard of most homes fetching benchmark prices these days: a high walkscore.
