Property Description
Some homes are built. Others are dreamed into existence. Designed by the family’s own father — a gifted architect who shaped not only the home itself but also the landscape surrounding it — this property was conceived from the ground up as a single, cohesive vision. Held by one family since the day it was completed, it now makes its very first appearance on the market. That lineage is felt the moment you step inside. The architecture speaks a clear intention. Windows were placed not merely for light, but to frame the world beyond — pulling the Bay, the hills, and the sweeping spans of three bridges, including the Golden Gate, directly into the fabric of daily life. On a clear day the views stretch for miles. The shapes of the rooms, the angles of the walls, the way spaces open and turn — all of it was conceived to keep nature present, visible, and close. Inside, the open-concept living and dining areas flow together with an easy generosity, spilling out through doors onto an elevated deck that reaches out over the landscape below — perfectly perched for long dinner parties as the sun drops behind the hills and the bridges catching the last of the evening light. The eat-in kitchen, beautifully updated with all-new stainless steel appliances, sits at the heart of it all, making the flow from kitchen to table to open air completely natural. The primary bedroom with its en suite bath sits on the main level alongside a hall bath and a well-placed laundry room. Downstairs, two additional bedrooms, a full bath, a bonus room ideal for a home office, and a family room open through doors onto a deck leading into the gardens. Here the architect’s hand is felt once more. The pathways, the plantings, the quiet rhythms of roses, fruit trees, a strawberry patch, and tended garden beds — all of it was laid out with the same deliberate care as the home above. There are unhurried corners here that reveal themselves slowly, and a sense of sanctuary that only deepens with time. Set on a generous double lot, this is a home that was built for a family who loved it fully — and it shows in every detail. Beautifully updated, it arrives fresh and ready to welcome the next family who chooses to make it their own. Berkeley mailing address, City of Oakland.
