Property Description

Perched above the UC Berkeley campus, Auspicious #8 offers breathtaking panoramas of the Golden Gate Bridge, San Francisco, and the expansive bay. Nestled on lower Panoramic Hill, this home provides seamless access to hiking trails, Strawberry Canyon, UC Berkeley campus and the vibrant Elmwood and Downtown Berkeley districts. Originally constructed in the 1920s and thoughtfully updated throughout the years, the residence stands as a tribute to historic preservation and modern renewal. It is situated within a prestigious historic neighborhood, surrounded by the architectural masterpieces of Julia Morgan, Maybeck, William Wurster and Walter Steilberg.The multi-level interior features four bedrooms and two and a half baths, meticulously designed for both functionality and flexibility. Outside, a beautifully landscaped rear garden serves as a tranquil sanctuary, perfect for escaping the urban energy of downtown. Under a canopy of mature redwoods, you will find fragrant ferns, flowering perennials, a spacious patio, and a detached cedar-sided craft studio. This is a property to truly cherish. Experience the serenity of being above it all while remaining within walking distance of the world-renowned university and everything Berkeley has to offer. BESO SCORE 2
