Sun-Soaked Berkeley Gem with Panoramic Views and Expansive Outdoor Space
A hilltop hideaway backdropped by uninterrupted views of all three bridges, this Berkeley beauty affords a sprawling, 2,351-square foot floorplan with panoramic vistas from nearly every room. Fully enclosed for ultimate privacy, guests are greeted by a private patio with lush lawn and flowering camellias. Across the threshold you’ll find a light-soaked open floorplan decked in hardwoods.
A stunning formal living room is the crown jewel, replete with rustic brick fireplace, soaring beamed ceiling, and oversized picture windows that frame sparkling bay views. Ripe for reinvention, a spacious kitchen is flanked by two eating areas and a pair of glass sliders that spill outward into a sunny patio, blurring the lines between indoor and outdoor entertaining.
The home gradually unfolds to reveal a trio of sunny bedrooms including a primary suite with ensuite bath and a quaint hall bath that evokes distinctive period charm. Downstairs you’ll find a cozy family room, laundry, and a studio with full bathroom and separate entrance offering the flexibility to function as an in-law suite or nanny’s quarters.
With a huge deck anchoring one end of the space, a lushly landscaped backyard is a veritable oasis, replete with a built-in treehouse, trampoline, and flat area wired for a hot tub. Equipped with 16 solar panels (owned) and a detached storage room, this hilltop escape is located right around the corner from Dorothy Bolte Park and the top-rated Step One Preschool, and just minutes to Tilden Park’s Little Farm for weekend wanderings.
