About this home....
Set in one of North Berkeley’s most coveted neighborhoods, 1415 Oxford Street is an almost entirely new contemporary residence where thoughtful architecture, refined finishes, and an exceptional location come together.
Reimagined across two levels, this approximately 2,510-square-foot home is designed for modern Berkeley living, with clean lines, expansive glass, generous proportions, and abundant natural light. The open main level connects the living, dining, and kitchen spaces, while oversized glass doors create a seamless connection to the outdoors.
At the heart of the home, a beautifully appointed two-tone kitchen combines custom cabinetry with premium Thermador appliances, creating an elegant and highly functional setting for everything from morning coffee to sophisticated entertaining. A dedicated office provides a quiet workspace, while custom pocket doors offer flexibility between open-concept living and moments of privacy.
Upstairs, four bedrooms provide comfortable space for family and guests. The primary suite features a spa-inspired bath, complemented by a second beautifully finished bathroom serving the additional bedrooms. A dedicated laundry room and first-floor powder room add convenience to the thoughtful floor plan. The west-facing fourth bedroom offers an especially memorable vantage point, with sweeping views across the San Francisco Bay toward San Francisco and the Golden Gate Bridge.

Outdoor living is equally well considered. Oversized glass doors open from the family room onto a private deck, extending the living space for grilling, dining, lounging, and entertaining. Beyond the detached 187-square-foot flex space, a landscaped sandstone patio creates a secluded setting for outdoor dining, a fire pit, or relaxed evenings under the stars.
Additional features include high-efficiency heating and cooling, professionally designed landscaping, and approximately 200 square feet of secure interior storage on the lower level.
Positioned in the heart of North Berkeley’s renowned Gourmet District, 1415 Oxford Street is moments from Chez Panisse, Bar Panisse, the Cheese Board, Walnut Square, neighborhood cafés, restaurants, shops, and everyday conveniences. North Berkeley BART is nearby, while UC Berkeley is less than a mile away. With a Walk Score of 93 and Bike Score of 79, much of Berkeley is easily accessible without getting behind the wheel.

This popular Berkeley neighborhood is known by at least a few names, including Gourmet Gulch, North Shattuck, and Gourmet District. Located less than a mile north of Downtown Berkeley, Gourmet District is often considered the birthplace and epicenter of California Cuisine.
The homes in the Gourmet District range from well-preserved Victorian-style homes to bungalows and meticulously preserved Craftsmans. In fact, the eclectic mix of real estate in the Gourmet District garners so much attention, the Berkeley Architectural Heritage Association conducts regular neighborhood tours in the area. Thanks to the nearby BART Station and central shopping district, the Gourmet District is one of the most walkable neighborhoods in Berkeley.
Everything from Oakland to the bustling Downtown San Francisco area is less than an hour commute from Gourmet District. Oakland Medical Center is less than 20 minutes from the Downtown Berkeley BART Station and residents can be at Google’s headquarters in less than 45 minutes. UC Berkeley is just a mile away, making Gourmet District a great place for students, faculty, and staff to call home.
Live Oak Park, located near Shattuck Avenue between Eunice and Rose Streets, is ideal for a variety of events and recreation. Amenities include basketball courts, a volleyball court, lighted tennis courts, picnic areas, and an open-air theater which hosts children’s plays and Shakespearean productions.

The true origin story of the moniker 'Gourmet District' is contested, but it's easy to see how the name came about.

Each of these restaurants have been icons in the neighborhood for decades and there’s no sign of them slowing down anytime soon.
