The living room features vaulted ceilings and opens to a large sunroom filled with light. The formal dining room is anchored by a copper light while the spacious kitchen—complete with oak cabinetry, stainless steel appliances, and a Viking professional range—overlooks the backyard. A breakfast nook and adjacent mud and laundry room complete this hub of the home. On the main level, also find one of the bedrooms and remodeled bathroom, and just a few steps up, the second bedroom facing the backyard. Enter the spacious primary en-suite from a reading corner to find a remodeled bathroom and skylights.

Storage is abundant with generous closets, custom built-ins throughout, and a large 2-car garage. Multiple decks wrap the home, offering distinct areas for dining, lounging, planting, or simply enjoying the quiet hillside setting. And did I mention the hot tub?

This beautifully designed home is a spacious yet cozy retreat tucked into one of Berkeley’s most peaceful, hillside neighborhoods. The home features a flawless floor plan with multiple distinct living areas, offering the perfect balance of comfort,...
flow, and function.
Rich wood elements and natural light fill the home with warmth and charm. The gourmet kitchen is truly a cook’s paradise — beautifully equipped, well-laid-out, and opening directly onto a private back deck that’s perfect for entertaining, with room for a long outdoor dining table.
A gate in the backyard leads to a hidden trail, and we were even greeted by a family of wild turkeys — a delightful reminder of the home’s close connection to nature. Other highlights include designer tile in the half bath, a garage with ample storage, and a primary bedroom so spacious it makes a king-sized bed look modest.
Quiet, inspiring, and close to everything — this home is a rare blend of thoughtful design, natural beauty, and tranquil living.

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.
