Description

First time on-market in decades, this classic Park Hills treasure is preserved to perfection. The upgrades and features truly compliment the 1930’s & 40’s architecture unique to this Berkeley Hills neighborhood. You’ll certainly appreciate the wood casement dual pane windows, ceilings that gently extend beyond 8ft, pristine hardwood floors throughout, and a backyard that can best be described as a “secret garden.” The foyer, living room, & formal dining converge into a cozy yet grand living space, complete with mantled fireplace and crown molding. The kitchen is as charming as they come with the perfect breakfast nook framed by a bay window with soothing views. But wait, there’s more...The 4th bedroom has its own exterior access, full bathroom, and kitchenette (aka an apartment or ADU?). Upgrades include solar, electrical service, drainage, central heating, recessed lighting, and a BESO score of 10/10. Fire hardening and sewer upgrade is in-progress. The main house is primarily a single story with a sheltered front porch, English garden sunroom, a laundry/mud room, 2-car garage, and basement workshop. Lastly, walk your pup in any direction to discover secret parks/trails, stunning Bay views, all the wonders of Tilden Park, and meet great neighbors along the way!

    "It's a very safe neighborhood. Cragmont park and remillard park are great for kids. It's beautiful and hilly so you need to be fit to get around. "

    "Easy, I drive to West Berkeley and it’s typically about 12 minutes to get to work. Driving in the Berkeley hills always calls for caution as there are people and children out on the streets where there aren’t always proper sidewalks. "

    "All the wildlife are present - squirrels, cats, deer, turkey to make your dog want to run and chase them away. Rare sightings of coyote in the neighborhood and mid night sounds of wild cats hunting."

    "Hills, architecture, parks every where, great city views on walks, a sense of community (which can make people too wary), greenery, lots of dog walking at any hour, nature is so close which is fantastic for bird watching (Cal Falcons, Commodores, etc), deer frolicking all the time, turkey can be seen on their strolls, every house a drive way but most are too small for cars to fit.

    "Haven't lived in this neighborhood in years, but often go back for friends and family and am always pleased to visit the area. It's green; the architecture is varied by virtue of the topography; stunning views of the City abound and are perfectly centered as this neighborhood is almost due east of the Golden Gate Bridge, which also plays a big role in the neighborhood's wonderful microclimate."
