Property Description
Sweeping Bay views spanning multiple bridges and the San Francisco skyline anchor this classic Berkeley Hills home, rich with architectural character including hardwood floors throughout, two brick fireplaces, original working doorbell, elegant wrought-iron banisters, and generously sized view-facing living and dining rooms. Thoughtful 2026 upgrades include a freshly painted interior, new kitchen quartz countertops, full electrical rewiring. Modern safety features such as a whole-house water shut-off sensor and automatic gas shut-off valve give peace of mind. The flexible floor plan offers two bedrooms and a full bath upstairs, plus a lower level with an expansive primary suite with ensuite bath and deck access, a laundry room, and a third bathroom with separate side entrance—ideal for guests, multigenerational living, or a home office. Once home to two UC Berkeley physicists, including physicist William Rarita, this residence combines a storied history with a premier location close to Tilden Park hiking trails, multiple hill paths, and convenient pathway, car, or bus access to UC Berkeley, downtown, and the city’s vibrant neighborhood districts. Home Energy Score of 3.
