About This Home

As of November 2022

Known lovingly by the surrounding community as MariLark Farms, this unique property will inspire and cultivate a deeper appreciation of home. Built in the early 1940’s and in the care of the same family since, this all level home with easy entry is convenient, open, and filled with light. Ample grounds surrounding the house provide a myriad of delightful outdoor settings -- both beautiful and functional--including a meadow, broad level lawn for play, and magical gardens with established vegetable beds and a greenhouse. Situated in a beloved Berkeley Hills neighborhood, near the trails and amenities of Tilden Park and public transportation. This special property is one not to be missed!
