Claremont/Elmwood
A stunning Mid-Century residence in the highly sought-after Claremont neighborhood, where architecture and setting exist in quiet harmony. Thoughtfully designed to capture natural light and sweeping outlooks, the home offers views from nearly every room, with expansive Bay windows and walls of glass that frame the surrounding landscape. Rich wood paneling runs throughout, bringing warmth, depth, and a timeless materiality to the interiors, while radiant heated floors provide a subtle, consistent sense of comfort.
The expansive living room serves as the architectural centerpiece—anchored by a fireplace and wrapped in glass, creating an airy yet grounded space that seamlessly connects to the outdoors. Just beyond, the dining area opens through sliding glass doors to an elevated deck, inviting effortless indoor-outdoor living—ideal for morning coffee among the trees or evening gatherings under open skies.
At the heart of the home, the bespoke kitchen by Berkeley Mills is both sculptural and highly functional, featuring custom millwork and a wall-to-wall pantry with integrated pull-out storage. Every element has been carefully considered to balance form and utility.
The main level unfolds with a thoughtful layout, offering two additional bedrooms and a full bath, providing flexibility for guests, family, or workspace needs. The primary suite is quietly set apart, evoking a serene, treehouse-like retreat with tranquil outlooks, a well-appointed bath, and a generous walk-in closet.
The lower level introduces a secondary living environment with remarkable versatility. Two bedrooms and a kitchen lend themselves to an in-law or guest unit, while an additional family room or bedroom opens directly to a private hot tub—creating a tucked-away space for relaxation and retreat.
Modern conveniences are seamlessly integrated throughout, including an elevator connecting levels, remote-controlled blinds, and two fireplaces that add warmth and ambiance to both living spaces. A wine cellar, along with a three-car garage featuring storage and workshop space, completes the home’s thoughtful design.
Set within one of Berkeley’s most coveted enclaves, Claremont is known for its tree-lined streets, architectural significance, and proximity to neighborhood favorites, scenic trails, and everyday amenities. This is a rare opportunity to own a home that embodies the essence of Mid-Century design—where light, materials, and landscape come together in a way that feels both elevated and enduring

Neighborhood
The Claremont neighborhood straddles the Berkeley and Oakland borders and features lush landscaping, curving streets that hug the canyon hills, and open space. Homes on the leafy side streets provide old-fashioned Berkeley elegance, with turn-of-the-century brown shingles, revivals, prairie-, custom contemporary-, and Tudor-styled structures offering residents a place to call home within the landscaped confines.
The landmark of this area is the majestic Claremont Hotel Club & Spa, a vast Victorian edifice perched on 22 acres in the hills. Three outdoor pools, 10 tennis courts, a full-service spa, a fitness club, and three onsite restaurants deliver stunning views, and the resort has become popular with generations of locals as a luxurious getaway.
Elmwood's shopping district on College Avenue in Berkeley offers old-fashioned shops, access to the Rockridge Bay Area Rapid Transit (BART), grocery stores, bookshops, and flower stands. Restaurants, a movies theater, and a bakery are all a short walk away.
The Claremont Canyon Regional Preserve is 208 acres of open space managed by the East Bay Regional Park District and more than 200 acres outside of the canyon owned by the University of California, Berkeley. Garber Park, a 13-acre oak-and-bay-tree woodland south of Claremont Avenue, is owned by the city of Oakland. Trails reward ambitious hikers with panoramic views of San Francisco Bay.
