Claremont Court

Architecturally distinguished Claremont Court home by Henry H. Gutterson, built in 1915. 2922 Garber was the first of Gutterson’s many homes and designed for himself and his wife. The design incorporates his love of gardens and desire to make the garden spaces accessible and integrated with the home. He succeeded! All the public rooms open to patios and a large stone terrace with walled seating. Private, lush and south facing. The main living has a very distinctive gracious living room... interesting windows, 2 doors opening to small decks, a gorgeous stone fireplace and bookshelves at one end. The dining room opens by sliding door to the patio. A great Glenn Jarvis kitchen, part of an expansion done by current owners includes a wonderful breakfast room with two sets of French doors to the garden. Upstairs is a south facing primary suite, opening to a deck, another bedroom, small bedroom/tv room and a rustic tree-house like wood paneled office. Downstairs has options: family room/kids hang out with extra bedroom, or rental. There is a full bath and kitchenette with separate entrance. 1-car garage. Perfect location on cul-de-sac near Monkey Island Park... near the best of the Claremont... hiking trails, Claremont Pool and Spa, Berkeley Tennis Club, Peet’s coffee, UC Berkeley, and College Ave.!

about this

Neighborhood

Home to one of the most prestigious universities in the country, Berkeley offers the intellectual and cultural stimulation from its campus -- which is within walking distance of downtown. Many Berkeley neighborhoods were established in the 1920s, with quiet, tree-lined streets, brown-shingled homes, and lushly landscaped yards. In Thousand Oaks, the original developers preserved ancient oak trees and left rock outcroppings intact. Elmwood, with its thriving business district, remains one of the city’s most sought-after neighborhoods. In Claremont, the Claremont Hotel, a gleaming white Victorian-era landmark, has provided generations of Bay Area residents with a luxurious getaway.

Berkeley has long been at the forefront of culinary innovation. Locals flock to the original Peet’s Coffee & Tea location. For residents who like to savor their meals at home, small retail districts sprinkled throughout Berkeley allow them to shop like Europeans, going from store to store to purchase everything they need. Those in a hurry can always visit major grocery stores nearby.

Neighborhood green spaces abound throughout Berkeley, from small community gardens to the Berkeley Rose Garden -- which boasts more than 3,000 rose bushes. The gem of the area is 2,000-acre Tilden Regional Park, with its miles of biking and hiking trails and the naturally landscaped swimming hole at Lake Anza.
