Katy & Katie of California 24 invited the Actualize Team to support the pre-listing phase of their listing at 2108 Eunice Street in Berkeley— a 2-bed, 2-bath, 1,012 sq ft home with a quiet, understated presence. With blank walls, faded paint, and an empty layout, its full potential was easy to overlook. But the natural light, timeless proportions, and solid bones quietly suggested something special beneath the surface.
Katy and Katie led the design vision with a refined eye for color and materials, working closely with the homeowners to bring clarity and cohesion to each decision. Their thoughtful approach turned the process into a creative partnership, and these are the curated selections that helped breathe new life into the space.
Actualize supported their direction by coordinating logistics, sourcing materials, and managing key updates—from interior wall refreshes to new lighting, outlets, switches, and a reimagined kitchen sink. Every detail was managed to align seamlessly with the overall design intent. But the standout transformation? Resurfacing and painting the existing cabinets, which brought the whole look together.Â
We used Benjamin Moore’s Baby Fawn for the kitchen,
and Benjamin Moore’s Mountain Cedar for the vanity — a simple change that brought a fresh and elevated look.
This Berkeley home was listed for $829K, pending within 2 weeks and got sold for $1.2M – That’s $371k over asking! Proof that a well-prepared home—and a great team—can lead to extraordinary outcomes!
If a full remodel isn’t in the budget right now, this is a great example of what you can do to improve your home’s vibe and atmosphere — small updates that make a real difference without the big price tag.
