Reimagined in a modern farmhouse style, this rare Lower Elmwood compound offers flexibility, style, and opportunity across three distinct, fully rebuilt living spaces totaling 3439 square feet. Ideal for multigenerational living (main house, au pair/private office, and detached 2-bedroom guest house), income, or room to grow, the property balances connection, privacy, and ease. The main home (3BD/3.5BA, 2212 sq ft) is filled with natural light and designed for both everyday living and gathering. From the front sitting room with bay window to the dining area and into the chef’s kitchen and family room, the flow feels effortless, with oak flooring throughout. Custom cabinetry, Café appliances, and a generous island create a kitchen that is both beautiful and functional. French doors open to the backyard, extending the living space outdoors. The lower level includes a bedroom with ensuite bath, an office, powder room, and ample storage. Upstairs, two additional bedrooms include a serene primary suite with a spa-like split bath and walk-in closet, along with a second bedroom with Berkeley Hills views and a modern hall bath. Attached to the main home with its own entrance, the 1BD/1BA, 378 sq ft au pair apartment features a new full kitchen, charming covered porch for outdoor reading or morning coffee, and a modern bathroom. This space can also serve as a private office, well suited for meeting clients apart from the main home. The detached, two-story ADU (3031A Wheeler: 2BD/1.5BA, 849 sq ft) is a luxurious, full-service guest house, complete with kitchen, living area, laundry, and generous storage. It is equally well suited for multigenerational living or income. Thoughtfully updated with modern systems, the property offers added peace of mind, efficiency, and potential advantages for insurance and long-term maintenance. New improvements include zoned heat, mini-splits with A/C (in both ADUs), roof, foundation, electrical wiring and panels, windows, and more. All kitchens and bathrooms are newly built with stylish finishes and brand-new appliances. The freshly landscaped level backyard features a large, lush lawn and multiple patios, perfect for outdoor gatherings, play, barbecuing, and al fresco dining. Multiple off-street parking spaces, a custom metal privacy gate, and additional storage complete the property. All just blocks from BART, Whole Foods, Berkeley Bowl, and the best of Berkeley’s shops, dining, & culture. Sewer lateral compliant. Energy score: 7.
