About this home

Discover a rare Berkeley Hills property offering the best of all worlds: beautiful Bay and Golden Gate Bridge views, a flat, usable yard, and a fully permitted detached Mid-Century Modern ADU. Thoughtfully remodeled and meticulously maintained, this 4-bedroom, 3-bathroom property combines modern comfort, timeless character, and exceptional versatility in one of Berkeley's most desirable neighborhoods. The beautifully updated main residence is filled with natural light and offers inviting living spaces with effortless indoor-outdoor flow. At the heart of the home is a chef's kitchen featuring a Viking range, Sub-Zero refrigerator, Miele dishwasher, and beautiful teak cabinetry. Fully remodeled and move-in ready, the home reflects years of thoughtful care and attention to detail. Equally impressive is the rare combination of beautiful views and a flat, functional yard, a particularly desirable find in the Berkeley Hills. Whether entertaining, gardening, playing, or simply relaxing outdoors, this property offers the outdoor lifestyle so many hillside homes lack. Adding exceptional flexibility is the fully permitted, detached Mid-Century Modern cottage/ADU, complete with a separate meter, cork flooring, updated kitchen, bathroom, and in-unit laundry. Ideal for a home office, guest accommodations, multigenerational living, or potential rental income. Additional highlights include an impressive BESO score of 10 and a convenient location near Tilden Regional Park, Solano Avenue, Marin Avenue, and the vibrant shops, cafés, and restaurants of North Berkeley, with easy access to hiking trails and outdoor recreation. A truly special opportunity to enjoy three highly sought-after features in one Berkeley Hills property: iconic Bay and Golden Gate Bridge views, a rare flat yard, and a fully permitted detached ADU.
