About This Home

As of June 2022

Panoramic Bay and City views and walls of glass from this unique Berkeley contemporary that has it all. Systematically upgraded, retrofitted, and beautifully remodeled, it offers dramatic, loft-like living areas and a spectacular upgraded gourmet kitchen with exotic woods and bronze counters. The open floorplan and extra high ceilings combines adjoining a family/media area and outdoor patio. Upstairs, three spacious bedrooms and a primary suite that feels like a sanctuary overlooking the Golden Gate views - all open to tiered gardens with built in meditation benches. In addition, a separate laundry room, a special mezzanine study, an extra office/playroom by the back patio, as well as interior access to the large two-car garage with EV hookup and tons of built-in storage. On the edge of Tilden Park and close to schools, downtown Berkeley, public transport, and the great SF commute. A rare and unique sanctuary!
