About this House
What's unique:Wood-burning fireplaceJaw-dropping viewsSecluded and flat cul-de-sacNew windowsBespoke cabinetry and furnishingsNew front deck
Relax with jaw-dropping views from this sophisticated, light-filled and comfortable architect's home nestled on a secluded and flat cul-de-sac in the hills directly above UC Berkeley. Walkable to UC campus & retail/restaurant districts, close to BART and bus lines, yet surrounded by nature.
This midcentury modern home was painstakingly renovated by the architect owner over the past 2 decades with multiple upgrades including radiant heating, modern chef's kitchen, custom doors and skylights, new windows, modern insulation, wood-burning fireplace, new front deck, renewed back patio, and downstairs guest suite/theater/exercise room with seperate entrance. Bespoke cabinetry and furnishings abound throughout the house.
Enjoy busy days on campus or downtown and then come back within minutes to peace and quiet with stunning views of the bay from the front deck or relaxing stillness under the redwoods in the back patio.
Panoramic Hill was named "Berkeley's Most Romantic Neighborhood" by the Berkeley Architectural Heritage Association and has many maintained walking paths that lead on and off the road to Cal, the South Campus area, and Orchard Lane, one of Berkeley's hidden treasures. It's an easy hike down to Rockridge and Elmwood retail/dining districts, or head up into the hills to access endless trails in Claremont Canyon, Tilden Park, and beyond.
