Now poised for its next chapter, this home seamlessly blends with its natural setting, offering a canvas for modernization. Enveloped by a tranquil garden teeming with fruit trees and vibrant flowers, evenings here invite quiet contemplation by the fire, illuminated by moonlight through expansive windows. Inside, an airy living space welcomes with raised ceilings and abundant natural light, its rich hardwood accents fostering a seamless, organic flow between rooms. Set in the Berkeley Hills, the property promises seclusion without sacrificing proximity to downtown Berkeley's lively offerings—Peet’s Coffee, Chez Panisse, Fava on Vine, and more—along with the University of California Campus. Additionally, the potential for an ADU conversion downstairs presents both income opportunity and increased value.
