🏡 Welcome Home
Welcome to this extraordinary Modern Mediterranean-style retreat, tucked away up a private drive like a hillside villa. This beautifully reimagined 4-bedroom, 2.5-bath residence blends serenity, elegance, and modern luxury, all framed by sweeping Bay and city views.
🌿 A Grand First Impression
From the moment you pass the tasteful front landscaping, step through the whimsical iron gate, and enter the gracious foyer, the quality and care behind this home are immediately felt. Southwest-facing windows flood the interiors with natural light throughout the day, creating a living experience that evolves effortlessly — from morning coffee on the kitchen balcony to golden-hour sunsets on the terrace.
🌅 Indoor–Outdoor Living at Its Best
Designed for seamless indoor–outdoor living, multiple decks and terraces provide tranquil settings for entertaining, gathering, or quiet reflection. Over $500,000 in high-end renovations have elevated the home with a refined, cohesive aesthetic.
🍽️ Design & Craftsmanship Highlights
Highlights include a custom JD Designs kitchen with sleek bespoke cabinetry, premium integrated Miele appliances, and a vibrant lime-green glass backsplash. Spa-inspired bathrooms feature designer tilework, frameless showers, and custom cabinetry. Wide-plank white oak floors, flush-mount wood registers, and calming sage-green walls create a clean, modern palette throughout, while two gas fireplaces add warmth and ambiance. Extensive structural upgrades offer comfort, safety, and peace of mind.
🛏️ An Exceptionally Thoughtful Floor Plan
The floor plan is exceptionally well considered, offering excellent separation of space, an open and airy feel, beautiful sightlines, and living rooms on each level. Bedrooms are thoughtfully positioned for work, rest, and privacy, with wonderful flow for both entertaining and everyday living.
📍 Coveted Berkeley Hills Location
Located just minutes from Elmwood, Claremont, and Rockridge, with easy access to trails, BART, top dining, and neighborhood amenities, this home offers the best of Berkeley Hills living.
🌟 A True Sanctuary
More than a residence, it is a private sanctuary and a rare opportunity to begin the next chapter in a truly special setting.
