Perched in the Berkeley Hills, this iconic A-frame is a light-filled retreat where mid-century soul meets thoughtful modern updates. Walls of glass soar to the dramatic peaked gable, framing breathtaking views of the San Francisco skyline, the Bay, and both bridges—sunsets here are unforgettable. Inside, vaulted tongue-and-groove ceilings and exposed beams crown an open living, dining, and kitchen great room. The remodeled kitchen pairs warm wood cabinetry with stainless appliances, a farmhouse sink, glass-tile backsplash, and a live-edge breakfast bar. Warm oak floors flow throughout, while a sunlit loft opens to the room below behind sleek cable railings. Two serene bedrooms—one with its own view—a spa-inspired bath with oversized tile and glass-enclosed shower, and a flexible desk/den nook complete the interior. Glass doors open to an expansive wraparound deck with lounge areas, custom planters, and endless views, all wrapped in lush greenery. A finished 185 sq ft bonus room makes an ideal office or studio, plus covered off-street parking. As efficient as it is beautiful, the home earns a perfect Home Energy Score of 10. Moments to Solano Avenue shops, Tilden Park, and an easy commute—a rare design-forward escape in one of the East Bay's most coveted hillside settings.

Beautifully renovated A-frame tucked away in a private, tranquil setting. The main level features one bedroom, while the loft-level second bedroom overlooks the surrounding trees, creating the feeling of a treehouse nestled in the forest. A spacious...
wraparound deck offers the perfect place to relax and take in the serene water views. A truly special retreat that’s not to be missed.
This shouldn’t be called an A-frame!!
It should be called an A+ Frame because it raised the grading curve.
The architecture easily stood above the rest, and the newer deck took full advantage of the panoramic views. Standing out there, it felt like...
you were looking over all of Berkeley.
Another thing I liked was how few neighbors were below the house. It gave the property a much more private feel than I expected.
This wasn’t just another Berkeley Hills home. It felt like it had earned its spot at the top.

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.
