About this home

Wake up to the breathtaking bay and Golden Gate Bridge views from your Berkeley haven. Begin a perfect weekend with breakfast at Inn Kensington just down the hill. If you're feeling adventurous, hop on your bike and join cyclists at Spruce’s top for a favorite scenic cycling route, or embrace the beauty nearby Tilden Park. Take that inspiration to the art studio and write, paint or create as you lose track of time. Stretch out in the yoga room after your long day. Sunday morning indulge in live music at Colusa Circle’s weekly farmers market. Take your fresh local produce to the chef’s kitchen and entertain in the beautiful light filled living spaces. Say goodbye to your guests early so you can bask in the sauna and end with a cold plunge on the upper balcony. Enter the week recharged in a home that truly nurtures all your needs. Large windows and skylights keep the home bright on even the grayest days. Warm wood ceilings and a brick feature wall and fireplace add a cozy feeling to the voluminous living room. The kitchen is a spacious dream with a six-burner stove, a separate prep sink, and views of the bay from the main sink area. The breakfast room promises quiet mornings, while your home office faces the bay. This property offers not just a home but a lifestyle of comfort.

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.
