Berkeley Hills Condo for Sale

Berkeley Hills is a scenic residential community framed by Berkeley’s urban core and extensive open spaces. Known for its serene nature and diverse architecture, the neighborhood features hillside homes ranging from classic Tudor-style to Spanish Revival and modern raised ranch-style designs. The area is not entirely walkable due to steep streets and a lack of sidewalks, but it offers a peaceful environment with low crime risk compared to the national average. The neighborhood is dotted with parks, including Codornices Park, which features a concrete slide, and the expansive Berkeley Rose Garden. Smaller parks like Glendale La Loma Park and John Hinkel Park offer playgrounds, while Indian Rock Park is popular for climbing. Just northeast, Tilden Regional Park provides miles of hiking and biking trails, a golf course, and a beach at Lake Anza. Students in Berkeley Hills attend highly rated schools like Cragmont Elementary, Oxford Elementary, Longfellow Middle, and Berkeley High. Proximity to commercial areas in Berkeley and Albany ensures that residents have easy access to shopping, dining, and annual events. A variety of international cuisines are available along Solano Avenue, which is also the location of the annual Solano Avenue Stroll. Public transportation options include Alameda Contra-Costa Transit District buses and the North Berkeley BART station, located 2 miles away.
