About This Property
Hidden behind mature trees on a rare, level +/- half acre lot in
the North Berkeley Hills, this extraordinary Mid-Century compound
feels like a private world unto itself-peaceful, expansive, and
deeply connected to nature, yet moments from the energy of Berkeley
below. With Golden Gate Bridge views and beautifully landscaped
grounds, the 4BD/3.5BA, 3443 sqft main residence plus detached
full-service guest apartment offers flexibility and soul in equal
measure. Set back from the street beside the Keeler nature
path, with beloved Remillard Park feeling like an extension of the
property, the home unfolds through gardens, decks, and gathering
spaces designed to slow you down and draw you outside. A spacious
entry deck welcomes you into interiors where oversized windows
frame greenery and Bay views. Inside, rich Mid-Century lines
meet subtle Art Deco moments, blending warmth, glamour, and ease.
Refinished hardwood floors and recessed lighting span the generous
open floorplan, where formal sitting and dining rooms flow
naturally into the heart of the home: an expansive kitchen and den
wrapped in walls of windows and filled with light. Glass doors open
directly to the backyard for seamless indoor/outdoor living. The
kitchen balances character and functionality with a carved vintage
wood island, new appliances, dual sinks, and updated countertops.
Outside, the grounds invite dinner parties beneath the trees,
afternoons on the lawn, or evenings on the rooftop deck watching
the light shift over the Bay. The main level also includes a
powder room, generous laundry and mudroom with sink and storage,
and two large bedroom suites, each with full baths and flexible
space for sitting areas or home offices. Upstairs, two additional
bedrooms share a full bath and open to a rooftop deck with sweeping
views. Above the garage, the detached 617 sqft guest studio
apartment offers its own full kitchen and bathroom plus deck,
views, and new appliances, creating ideal flexibility for guests,
extended family, office use, or income potential. A two-car
garage and two parking pads provide abundant off-street parking.
Recent upgrades include a new electrical panel and new ductwork
throughout the primary residence. Step outside to Berkeley's
famed parks and pathways, or head minutes down the hill to UC
Berkeley, world-class dining, arts, and culture. This is a property
that feels both tucked away and deeply connected-a true Berkeley
retreat. BESO Compliant, Energy Score: 5
