Property Description
Rarely does a Berkeley Hills property combine sweeping panoramic Bay and Park views with an expansive, level garden setting. Perched near the top of the hills on an extraordinary 8,958 sq. ft. parcel, this beautifully renovated modern farmhouse estate feels worlds away, with a relaxed East Coast elegance reminiscent of a gracious Hamptons retreat. Beyond the private gate, a sun-filled brick courtyard creates an enchanting welcome, with French doors opening from both sides for effortless indoor-outdoor living, entertaining and play. Thoughtfully updated while retaining its warmth, character and timeless appeal, it features generous windows that frame spectacular Bay vistas as well as peaceful views toward the surrounding parkland and greenery. Level-in to 4 spacious bedrooms that surround the courtyard in 2 wings, the current owners also expanded the lower level by finishing more than 600 sq. ft. of living space into a spacious lower-level family room with direct garden access and ample storage and workout space. Ideal as a media room, playroom, gym, office, guest space or creative studio, it adds tremendous flexibility to the floor plan. Oak hardwood floors, dual-pane windows, updated electrical, two newer furnaces, on-demand hot water and fresh interior and exterior paint complete the picture. With nearly a quarter-acre of mostly level land, extraordinary views, abundant outdoor space and Tilden Park trails close by, this is a truly rare Berkeley Hills retreat. Home Energy Score 4.
