About This Home

As of June 2025

A feast for the senses! This beautifully restored Victorian home features a 4-color exterior and many artful touches including metal sculptures, stained glass window, custom cabinetry, beautifully crafted balcony railings, stunning chestnut floors harvested from a Healdsburg family farm, high ceilings, skylights, an oasis of a yoga/dance studio, bamboo fencing, a cedar hot tub, meandering garden paths and a whimsical treehouse. It also features eco-friendly elements such as PV solar panels, high efficiency mini split HVAC, EV car charger and a grey water irrigation system. The flexible layout features 3++ bedrooms in the main home, 2 bathrooms and great flow to the magical garden. The ground level includes a 2/1 renovated unit and a 1 bedroom unit. The level-in access makes the units perfect for intergenerational living, & the flexible spaces are great for home office, guests, co-purchasing and/or extra income. The home represents the best of Berkeley: homage to original architecture blended with the heart and soul of artists, artisans & craftspeople, and a commitment to quality & sustainability. Close to 4th Street shops & restaurants, Berkeley Marina, Gilman District & many other favorite haunts. Excellent transportations options. Walkscore of 96 & Bikescore of 96!
