There is a quiet grace to this Claremont home, an ease and warmth that unfolds slowly, inviting you to linger. Set on a lushly landscaped lot, where gardens wrap the home in greenery and light filters through mature trees, this classic traditional offers a rare sense of calm just moments from the vibrancy of the surrounding neighborhoods. A welcoming entry leads inside, where sunlit rooms and timeless details create a feeling of understated elegance. The living and dining spaces flow together effortlessly, anchored by a fireplace and framed by multi-pane windows looking out onto gorgeous trees and plants nearby—rooms that feel both refined and deeply livable. A generous library or family room offers a place to gather, read, or simply be.

A home where nature, architecture, and daily life come into beautiful balance. Timeless architecture, modern comfort, prime Claremont setting!

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.
