488 Kentucky Ave, Berkeley, CA 94707

A hilltop hideaway backdropped by uninterrupted views, this Berkeley beauty affords a light-soaked floorplan decked in hardwoods. The formal living room is the crown jewel, with rustic fireplace, beamed ceiling and oversized windows that frame bay views. A spacious kitchen is flanked by two glass sliders that spill outward into a patio, blurring the lines between indoor/outdoor entertaining. The home unfolds to reveal 3 sunny bedrooms including a primary suite with ensuite bath. Downstairs you’ll find a cozy family room, laundry, 3rd full bath and a studio with a 4th full bathroom and separate entrance. With a huge deck anchoring one end of the space, a landscaped yard is a veritable oasis, with treehouse and trampoline. Equipped with owned solar panels and a detached storage room, this hilltop escape is located around the corner from Dorothy Bolte Park and the top-rated Step One Preschool, and just minutes to Tilden Park’s Little Farm for weekend wanderings.
