$710,000
All Property Photos
This lovely three bedroom, 2 bath home in tranquil Tara Hills has a true mid-century modern style, with its single level layout giving access and views to its unique and private oversized lot.The entire home has a wonderful indoor-outdoor feel, and has been beautifully refreshed and updated for its next owners.
Entering the home, you come into a large living room with gleaming oak floors, built-in cabinetry, a brick fireplace and windows which overlook the special yard.The three bedrooms are generously sized, each with cedar lined closets and the second bath has been thoughtfully remodeled. In the primary bedroom, you are greeted with the same view to the backyard overlooking the lawn and a redwood grove. You will also find double closets and and an attached bath with original 1960's tile in a step down shower that showcases the home's vintage charm.
In the back of the home, a spacious bonus room was added by the owner's father and was the setting for years of game nights, gatherings and family parties.This flexible space works perfectly as a room for TV, guests, recreation or could make a great work from home setup.The classic freestanding mid-century fireplace in the corner gives the room warmth and character, and the wall of windows and sliding glass doors 'open' the room to the outdoors.
The property also checks a lot of practical boxes: a new roof with warranty, excellent reports and systems, a two car garage with interior access and laundry, plus two sheds in the yard give you an extra amount of storage and workspace. The kitchen and dining rooms retain their original finishes and are ready for the next owner's vision.
The real story of the house, however, is the backyard. Stepping outside feels calm and private. A wraparound low profile deck connects the home to multiple pathways, seating and dining areas, making the yard feel like an extension of the living space. As you wander further back, you come across two bridges that lead to an upper portion of the lot. And tucked behind that is a redwood grove planted by the current owners, with trees nearly as old as the home itself!
Located just near Shannon elementary school and local parks, 650 Marlesta is in a desirable location offering easy access to Pinole shops and transit.

As a real estate agent specializing in Berkeley, Oakland, El Cerrito, and Albany, I bring a deep understanding of the Bay Area’s unique housing market. Growing up here and working in both construction and real estate has given me a hands-on perspective that most agents simply don’t have. With my background in bathroom and kitchen remodels, I’m able to help my clients see the potential in every property—not just what’s on the surface, but how it can truly fit their needs for both today and the future.
Working closely with tech professionals, I understand that your home is more than just a place to live—it's an investment in your lifestyle and future. I’m here to make the buying or selling process seamless, efficient, and tailored to your specific goals. Whether you’re looking for a space with modern conveniences, home-office potential, or a property that’s ready to be personalized, my expertise in construction and design adds another layer of value that sets me apart from the typical agent.
When I’m not helping my clients navigate the Bay Area real estate market, you can find me playing trombone in an orchestral band or working in the studio mixing and mastering for local artists. I also love spending time outdoors, especially after three years as a ski instructor in Bozeman, Montana.
I’m always looking to connect with tech professionals interested in making strategic real estate decisions. Let’s talk about how I can help you find your perfect space in the Bay Area or get the most value out of your current property. Feel free to reach out to me directly—I’d love to connect!

Your trusted advocate
I have a confession: After 25-plus years, I love my job more than ever, even as the Bay Area market has gone through dramatic changes. Maybe because of that, connecting each Client to the right property still holds my full attention and fascination. I work hard to match people and places by knowing both really well. I keep a level head, but keep in mind hopes and dreams.
I’m an upbeat and enthusiastic advocate for each of my many long term and repeat Clients. Your particular real estate challenge is what fuels me, and after decades of hands-on experience, I know how to get the job done. I’ve been told I’ve got intelligence and wit - so I will make sure you are informed and protected throughout your important transaction, striving to make the end-result a joyful occasion.
I’ve lived and raised my family in the East Bay since 1985, and have been involved in a multitude of local community activities -- schools, sports, charities and the arts. I love a good design or remodel project, and bring my knowledge to the table when my Clients evaluate properties. I pride myself on knowing our local market, from all sides, really well.
My background has set me up for success -- I attended UCLA and UC DAVIS, graduating with a degree in Economics. My many long-term friends have exposed me to (their) ART, WINE, MUSIC, TRAVEL, SCIENCE, and DESIGN...and my broad real estate clientele have done the same. I can’t believe how lucky I am to continue to make these wonderful connections who truly fuel my work.
Giving is important to me. I volunteer or donate to organizations related to Public Schools, housing and local food programs, local and overseas groups seeking to end human trafficking, climate action groups, Wounded Warrior Project and Medicins sans Frontiers.
During my downtime, I support as many varied, live, local performances as possible, and try to keep my own hand in performing too -- singing anything with a great groove! I love remodeling homes, practicing French, and listening to Korean hip hop. (Really). I’m also a movie nut, frequent traveller, and a super-fan of the English Premier League.
All these elements have made me a successful and award-winning Realtor® in the Berkeley - Oakland area since 1989. Please take a look at how I work and what others have said. I hope we can work together -- great good things will come from it!
