About

Cragmont

Cragmont, located between the Berkeley Hills ridgeline and North Berkeley, is a residential and hillside Berkeley neighborhood with winding streets and bay-view outlooks. The area reads as a patchwork of mid-century homes, shingled cottages, and terraced gardens set into steep grades. The neighborhood’s character concentrates around the Indian Rock Park entrance on Indian Rock Avenue, where climbers, dog walkers, and sunset-watchers cycle through the stone outcrops. Community pillars nearby include the Solano Avenue corridor’s independent shops, the North Berkeley Branch Library, and the Berkeley Rose Garden’s amphitheater-like paths. Foot travel often means stairways and switchbacks, while drives trace narrow lanes under mature trees. The pace feels quiet, with nature and architecture doing most of the talking.

R-1H

Single Family Residential District - Hillside Overlay Zone

The purpose of the Single-Family Residential (R-1) district is to: Recognize and protect the existing pattern of development in the low-density, single-family residential areas of the city consistent with the General Plan; Make housing available for persons who desire detached housing and a relatively large amount of usable open space; Protect adjacent properties from unreasonable obstruction of light and air; and Permit community facilities such as religious assembly uses, schools, parks, and libraries which serve the local population and are not detrimental to the immediate neighborhood.; The purpose of the Hillside (H) overlay zone is to: implement General Plan policies for hillside development; protect the safety and health of residents where steep topography, unusual street conditions and proximity to the wildland-urban interface create severe risk from wildfire; protect the character of Berkeley's hillside areas and their immediate environs; give reasonable protection to views yet allow appropriate development of all property; and allow modifications in standard setback and height requirements when justified because of steep topography, irregular lot pattern, unusual street conditions, or other special aspects of the hillside areas.
