Property description
Enjoy the serenity of this retreat in the heart of the North Berkeley Hills. Extraordinary panoramic views of the Golden Gate Bridge and the surrounding Bay fill this beautiful Mediterranean home. Enchanting garden courtyards, a full-size pool, spa and the upper lawn offer room for outdoor fun. The living room, complete with a musician’s balcony above, opens to a quiet courtyard and the adjoining studio suite with bath. Find your favorite space in this exceptional floor plan, from a quiet garden-patio bedroom to the tower-shaped sunroom. An updated kitchen opens toward a glass deck where you can watch the changes on the Bay from sunrise to moonlight and the nighttime city lights. The indoor spa is a highlight of the stunning master suite, with its own arched view windows and glass tile deck. Driveway access from the street above. Minutes to Solano and Shattuck shops & restaurants. Close to Indian Rock with easy access to Tilden Park, UC Berkeley and the San Francisco Bay Area.
