About this home
A handsome 1926 Mediterranean Revival residence in Berkeley's coveted Northside, 1594 Le Roy Avenue comes to market for the first time in decades. Stately yet wonderfully welcoming, this 4-bedroom, 2.5-bath home has been cherished by the same family for many years—a place where children were raised, holidays celebrated, friends welcomed and memories made. A gracious slate entry opens to the formal living and dining rooms, with beautifully refinished white oak floors continuing throughout the main and upper levels. Off the living room, an inviting sunroom with built-ins and windows on three sides is filled with natural light. The dining room enjoys views toward San Francisco—a memorable backdrop for dinner and many more holiday gatherings to come. The eat-in kitchen offers wall ovens and direct access to the lush rear garden. Upstairs are four bedrooms, including an airy primary with its own San Francisco views. The lower level adds a flexible bonus room and half bath—ideal for a media room, gym or home office—with interior access to the attached garage. There is an ease to this house that's hard to capture in photographs: generous rooms, a floor plan that flows, and 1920s architecture that gives the home presence without feeling stuffy. All of this in a close-knit North Berkeley neighborhood, just minutes from the Gourmet District, nearby schools, and the shops, restaurants and everyday pleasures that make North Berkeley such a special place to live. At 1594 Le Roy, it isn't just any house; it's a home—and an opportunity to become part of a very special neighborhood. BESO score.

La Loma Park, located between Shattuck Avenue and Euclid Avenue, is a hillside and residential Berkeley neighborhood with winding stair streets and canyon greenery. The neighborhood’s character concentrates around the Rose Garden and Euclid Avenue, where café patios, small markets, and campus-bound foot traffic set a steady daytime hum. Spanish Revival and Craftsman homes step up the slopes, with frequent bay-view glimpses between mature trees. Codornices Creek and its paths shape the terrain, linking pocket parks and quiet overlooks. Community pillars include Berkeley Rose Garden, the UC Theatre Taube Family Music Hall, and the Berkeley Art Museum and Pacific Film Archive (BAMPFA).

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.
