Listing Agent: Tracy Sichterman Brokerage: BERKELEY HILLS REALTY

First time on the market, this home combines architectural pedigree with spectacular panoramic views. Set in the hills near a top-rated school and local shops, this distinctive residence showcases sweeping views across the San Francisco Bay. The Golden Gate Bridge anchors the horizon, joined by vistas of the Bay Bridge, Richmond Bridge, the SF skyline, and Mount Tam. Breathtaking outlooks are enjoyed from all of the home's principal rooms. Built by master craftsman Berton D. Garey, the property embodies Northern California Organic Modernism through natural materials, handcrafted detailing, and seamless indoor-outdoor connection. Cedar shingle siding, a Maybeck-inspired concrete garage, and mature wisteria recall Berkeley's architectural character: Yet the home sits just north of that city's higher property taxes, offering a Berkeley lifestyle without its constraints. Vaulted ceilings, clerestory windows, and a dramatic wall of glass frame extraordinary views. A dual-sided fireplace anchors the living room. The thoughtfully restored kitchen preserves the original tile and custom cabinetry while featuring modern appliances and finishes. The primary suite opens to a private deck, while two additional bedrooms capture views of the bay. Rare details and a wonderful setting abound.
