About This Home
As of October 2025Shaded by mature redwoods, this Berkeley Hills hideaway provides the epitome of privacy minutes from parks, grocers and eateries. Exhibiting a treehouse-like quality, the shingled stunner features cozy, Craftsman-style interior that retains period charm while embracing modern-day conveniences. Illuminated skylights, a quaint kitchen with cozy breakfast nook features a bank of windows that welcome morning light. A great room is the heart of the home, beautifully blending a fireplace-clad living room and solarium-like dining room. Upstairs, a pair of light-soaked bedrooms are joined by an expansive sunroom framed by lush greenery. Those in the primary suite enjoy a marble vanity, W/I closet, and adjoining bath with pedestal sink and claw-footed tub. The lower level is perfect for housing guests, replete with a spacious bedroom, sitting area, full bath, and laundry. A storybook property ensconced in towering trees, this Berkeley Hills haven features a detached garage with sunny cottage.
