About This Home

As of December 2021

Mad about Mid-Mod? You’ll fall in love with 26 Berkeley Avenue, in Orinda. A spacious, well-maintained home, with a sun-drenched, open floor plan, vaulted ceilings, and beautiful indoor/outdoor integration A fine example of the mid-century movement, this gorgeous home was designed for entertaining, gatherings, and easy living. Tasteful updates include a sleek subway tiled fireplace and new flooring treatments in keeping with the period ethos. The home’s floor to ceiling windows, and sliding doors, open the home to Orinda’s gorgeous, nearly year-round Banana Belt weather. Located near San Pablo Dam Rd., the Orinda Village and BART, 26 Berkeley Avenue feels miles away from the big city in a verdant, hillside community surrounded by open spaces.
