About This Home
∎
Tucked behind a welcoming garden gate draped in mature grapevines, this distinctive Berkeley Hills residence offers a rare blend of mid-century character, natural beauty, and captivating San Francisco Bay views. Set within a landscaped setting, this single-level home feels like a private retreat—an inviting escape defined by light, warmth, and a seamless connection to the outdoors.
Inside, rich hardwood floors, sculptural wood-beamed ceilings, and expansive windows create an atmosphere of understated sophistication. The living and dining spaces are anchored by a striking fireplace and built-in seating, while natural light moves beautifully throughout the interiors, highlighting the home's authentic architectural details. Three inviting bedrooms offer peaceful places to unwind, with two opening directly onto a generous balcony overlooking San Francisco. The primary suite features a renovated bathroom, complemented by an additional full bathroom and a convenient powder room. A separate office provides flexibility for today's lifestyle, whether envisioned as a dedicated workspace, creative studio, or quiet retreat. An expansive storage room beneath the house provides valuable additional space for seasonal belongings, recreational equipment, and everyday storage needs.
Outside, established gardens and inviting outdoor spaces encourage a slower, more considered pace of living. Enjoy morning coffee surrounded by greenery, afternoons on the view balcony, and evenings as the sun sets over the San Francisco Bay, transforming the horizon into a spectacular natural backdrop. Thoughtful modern amenities include solar power and electric vehicle charging, bringing added convenience and energy-conscious living to this architecturally distinctive home. With its timeless mid-century design, intimate garden setting, sweeping Bay views, and contemporary conveniences, this Berkeley Hills hideaway offers a compelling balance of architectural character and modern comfort. A special opportunity to experience the tranquility of the hills in a home that feels both grounded in its natural surroundings and connected to the best of East Bay living.
