About this home

This residence is a piece of art. Built by the noted architect, John Hans Ostwald. It combines timeless clean lines and large floor-to-ceiling windows, which offer extensive bay and bridge views. The front entry brings you into a palatial stone floor and then into the living room with not only breathtaking views of the bay but the zen side garden as well. Spend hours by the fireplace with modern, chic lines juxtaposed with rustic brick. The entry stairwell leads up to the loft with a custom built-in desk and shelves. The kitchen and dining room offer doors and windows to the outside, and to the central courtyard. The primary bedroom suite has an entrance to the central courtyard and large windows. Let your luxurious at-home spa retreat spill out onto the private courtyard from the elegant primary bathroom. The lower floor allows you to have a separate guest room and a bonus studio with access to the garden. This extensively large yard spills into the second parcel for you to enjoy!

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.
