About This Home

As of September 2021

In the heart of Berkeley’s Claremont district, on one of its most beautiful and coveted streets, designed by John Hudson Thomas, sits this 4BD/3.5BA majestic and magical home. The spectacular two-story redwood-paneled living room with a towering cathedral-like ceiling, dramatic fireplace and picturesque views into the garden, opens to a porch that overlooks the flowing creek. Formal dining or casual eat-in kitchen are both options. The real piece de resistance is the upper level, an expansive third floor featuring a dramatic atelier. This exciting space with its soaring ceiling and majestic window is a light-filled enchantment. Adjoining plus room and full bath adjacent complete this level.
