About This Home

As of September 2021

Best Berkeley location. High enough to get views, low enough to utilize walking paths to the top of Solano Avenue. Arlington Ave is a great artery for commuters and also wonderful access for emergency vehicles. The Architecture here is solid and richly adorned, creature Comforts are perfectly curated, and the Environment and views are enhanced and embraced. A few steps down from the formal entry, the living room is given grandeur with flanking columns and display cases. Vaulted ceilings and rich moldings are augmented by elegant built-ins. The terrace is accessed from two sides of this room with a dramatic five-panel bay door as a focal point. Every wall is given architectural interest via French doors or display cases. If you get Comfort right, it's called luxury. In this home, it means every bedroom is a private suite, and every suite has a view or balcony. Unobstructed Bay & Golden Gate Bridge views. Lots of off-street parking and nearby walking paths encourage exploration.
