About This Home

As of October 2018

Gorgeous Tudor-style home with easy, indoor-outdoor living on a 13,000+sf lot, ideal for entertaining friends. Views of SF, Mt. Tam and the bay from many rooms in the house including the spectacular living room with ultra high ceilings and exposed wooden beams. Step out of the kitchen, through the sun-drenched sun room, to enjoy your coffee on the hillside while soaking up the view and your spectacular garden with room for fruit trees and more. Circular flow, between the entry-level floor and the level-out patio great for ping-pong, Zen garden and yard, makes the house feel warm and inviting. Original fixtures and leaded stained glass windows add to the charm of this magical property. The 65 bus is nearby and takes you to points through the Gourmet Ghetto, downtown Berkeley and campus. Proximity to Tilden Park hikes, The Little Farm, Lake Anza and more make this location a winner!
