Property Description

Where can you find Bay views and away-from-it-all serenity, yet still be a stone's throw from the UC campus and all that downtown Berkeley has to offer? Come see this nature-lover's paradise: an Eichler-inspired MidCentury 3/2.5, steps from Tilden Park and miles of hiking trails, and walkable to the Lawrence Hall of Science. Inside, the open-space floorplan is bathed in natural light through all-new windows and glass doors, with gleaming hardwood floors flowing seamlessly to front and rear redwood decks for maximum indoor-outdoor flow. Outside is a gardener's Eden, with raised organic beds, fruit trees and berries, flowers and herbs for all seasons, and drip irrigation. Custom design touches include a handcrafted zinc bar top, custom stone fireplace and kitchen and bath updates, with two bedrooms and one-and-a-half baths above the main floor. The separate-entry, walk-out lower level provides a 3rd bedroom, full bath and studio-style living space including a kitchenette. Over a decade-plus in residence, the owners imbued this home with an eco-friendly mindset, incorporating natural, organic and low-VOC upgrades to ensure sustainable comfort. New gas furnace and ducting were added in the past year. Registered as a short-term rental with the City of Berkeley.
