Property Description

Perched gracefully in the Berkeley Hills this exceptional property blends architectural heritage by Henry Higby Gutterson with sweeping vistas of the San Francisco skyline, 3 bridges and 7 counties. Striking high-beamed ceilings in the Arts and Crafts style lend an airy grand ambiance. A custom designed upper level office/sanctuary maximizes the already amazing views.

The gently sloping lot provides privacy from the street with it’s lush landscaping and meandering paths. The long driveway and 2 car garage offer modern day ease of use. All just minutes away from iconic hiking and recreation in Berkeley’s Tilden Park and more urban pursuits in the famous North Berkeley Gourmet District. You truly can have it all!
