About This Home

As of April 2022

A stone courtyard welcomes you to this level-in Mediterranean-feel home. Enter through a formal foyer to a bright living room that features large picture windows and built-ins. The modern island kitchen is open to the dining room. This main floor has a family room that leads right into the backyard, half a bath, as well as additional space for a perfect home office. The garage has plenty of storage and convenient interior access to the house. The upstairs, with stunning views of the Bay, offers a fabulous layout with two spacious bedrooms and bath, plus an en-suite primary bedroom complete with an updated bath and walk-in closet. Usable outdoor space surrounds this residence: the fenced front lawn, perfect for playing, the side lawn, ideal for a veggie garden and the hardscaped backyard that invites outdoor dining. This Berkeley Hills home is near the nature and serenity of Tilden Park, and yet a quick drive down the hill to North Berkeley's social, dining and shopping options.
