Description

A Rare Architectural Legacy! Built in 1912 by Walter Ratcliff, this exceptional 3BD/2.5BA residence offers a rare chance to own a beautifully preserved piece of Berkeley’s storied past thoughtfully updated for modern living. Set on an 8,820 sf lot, the 2,048 sf home is surrounded by tiered, landscaped gardens with mature trees, vibrant blooms, & multiple seating areas. A motorized gate opens to a brick-paver driveway with space for 5 vehicles. Inside, the grand living room is anchored by striking, meticulously restored leaded glass windows—a hallmark of the home's architectural pedigree—soaring cathedral ceilings, & a plaster-surround fireplace. The formal dining room features original built-ins, garden views, & a second fireplace. A fully remodeled chef’s kitchen includes a marble island, custom cabinetry, & premium appliances. Throughout the home: hardwood floors, beamed ceilings, custom stairwell, & finely crafted woodwork. The primary suite offers a sitting area, walk-in closet, & bonus storage. Additional highlights include remodeled baths, Elfa® closets, secret bedroom nook, tankless water heater, laundry, shed, & secured gate. Step into timeless elegance and become the next steward of this iconic Berkeley residence. This is more than a home—it’s a piece of history.

    "Challenging as more people are driving and fewer taking public transportations following the pandemic"
  • Trulia User
    "Hiking on the hill when the wildflowers are in bloom and the 180% view is as clear as a bell. The best of the Bay. "
  • Trulia User
    "I grew up on Oakvale Ave & Domingo, and even as a kid I felt that Claremont was the best neighborhood ever: so many families, with genuine community spirit, and all kinds of beautiful, secret places to explore (safely). Now that I’ve lived in Palo Alto, Bryn Mawr, Philadelphia, Manhattan—and raising my own three children in Brooklyn—it’s clear to me that this neighborhood is a uniquely special, sometimes magical, place to grow up. I wish I could move it to Brooklyn!"
  • Ravi
    "Friendly, nice people that have lived here forever. Near the Claremont hotel and club. Great weather. "
