About This Home
Set on a quiet cul-de-sac in the Berkeley Hills, this Mid-Century stunner showcases a bright, open footprint and classic, post-and-beam construction. Nestled into the hillside, the sprawling home affords a tree-house-like quality, shaded beneath a canopy of greenery. A legacy property built by the owners grandfather and architect Alvin Fingado in 1966 and beautifully maintained, the bi-level home is on the market for the first time. A great room forms the core of the residence, seamlessly merging living, dining and kitchen in one voluminous expanse. Floor-to-ceiling glass welcomes light, replete with glass doors that open to an expansive outdoor patio. Warmed by a fireplace and decked in hardwoods, the living room features a vaulted, wood-paneled ceiling. Illuminated by pendants, an eat-in kitchen with quartz counters showcases a cozy breakfast nook. Tucked away for privacy, the downstairs features a generous primary suite with ensuite bath, walk-in closet, and private patio perfect for morning coffee alfresco. Sunday Open 11/2 2-4:30pm.
