Property Description
Tucked behind a charming wooden gate in the Berkeley Hills, this 1931 residence reflects a quiet blend of character, scale, and setting. Once home to a noted poet, the property carries a subtle creative legacy, with light-filled interiors, bay views, and a strong connection to the surrounding landscape. The home offers well-proportioned rooms, including a breakfast nook, a formal dining room with French doors leading to an enchanting patio, and a sophisticated living room with built-ins, a fireplace, and bay-facing windows. The layout flows naturally, with expansive windows and a balance of open and more intimate spaces. Outlooks are predominantly green and serene, with mature plantings and a sense of privacy consistent with its hillside setting. A large, sunny bonus space with a private entrance could serve as guest quarters or be incorporated into the main home for additional living space, with interior access via stairs from the kitchen. Lovingly cared for by the same family for over 30 years, this special property is a classic Berkeley Hills home with enduring architectural character, thoughtful siting, and a peaceful, retreat-like quality.
