About This Home

As of June 2024

Nestled amidst serene landscapes, yet close to the Claremont Hotel, Rockridge and Elmwood shopping districts, this contemporary masterpiece offers the epitome of modern living in a natural creek-side setting. This spacious retreat with a park-like yard has five bedrooms and three baths, as well as an ADU on the lower level with its own bath. Berkeley mailing address with Oakland services. Large windows and multiple skylights invite sunshine into each room and corner of the home. Verdant views from every window envelope the beauty of the surrounding landscape. The babbling brook below offers a soothing backdrop to daily life. The open upper-level floor plan is ideal for entertaining with the kitchen, dining and living area opening to outside through glass doors onto an expansive deck (pre-plumbed for a hot-tub), where the beauty of the outdoors seamlessly blends with your living space. Enjoy al fresco dining, entertain guests, or simply unwind with the sounds of the birds in the trees. There is a sunny level area right of the upper deck that is perfect for cultivating a fruit and vegetable garden. All of this and a fabulous-owned solar system for your electrical needs!
