About This Home
As of September 2025Nestled in Berkeley’s coveted Thousand Oaks neighborhood, this rare East Coast–style traditional home, blends stately elegance with inviting warmth. Built in 1922, the 3++BD, 2.5BA home spans 2,454 sq ft on a generous 7,500 sq ft lot stretching from Thousand Oaks Blvd to San Fernando Ave. The detached garage off San Fernando, allows an almost level-in entrance through the kitchen and ADU potential. The thoughtful layout offers spacious, sun-filled rooms, including a formal living room, library, and a dedicated office. Both the living room and kitchen open directly to the gracious backyard. The custom kitchen—with details like built-in seating and handcrafted cherry cabinets—anchors the home with charm and function. Upstairs, the primary suite features an ensuite bath and glistening Bay views. A second west-facing bedroom also enjoys Bay vistas, while the back bedroom and sunroom feel tucked among the trees. Lush gardens provide a serene retreat for entertaining or quiet reflection. With refined proportions, abundant natural light and seamless indoor-outdoor flow, this home embodies timeless Berkeley elegance just moments from Solano Ave, North Berkeley shops, and transit, right across from Great Stone Face Park- a Thousand Oaks neighborhood Treasure.
