Property Description

Set on a quiet cul-de-sac in one of Berkeley's most coveted neighborhoods, this enchanting Cape Cod Revival captures the magic of a bygone era, thoughtfully transformed for modern living. Period Arts & Crafts details—including divided-light windows, beautiful millwork, built-in cabinetry and a striking formal dining room with art glass—bring warmth and architectural character throughout. Its history is particularly intriguing given neighboring Brookside Avenue residences designed by noted Bay Area architect Henry H. Gutterson, whose work helped shape this distinctive enclave. The beautifully updated 3-bedroom, 2.5-bath home features an expanded chef's kitchen with Sub-Zero refrigerator, abundant cabinetry and a sunny eat-in area. The kitchen flows to an inviting family room with custom media cabinetry and out to the garden beyond. One bedroom features built-in bookshelves. Beso score 5. Outside, a private landscaped garden unfolds beneath mature Japanese maples, with lemon, lime and mandarin trees, entertaining areas and a hot tub. A beautifully finished detached ADU with vaulted ceilings, full bath and garden views offers an ideal space for guests, office or studio. Just minutes from Star Market, College Avenue shops and dining, BART and the iconic Claremont Hotel—a special home combining architectural character, modern livability and a magical garden setting in an exceptional Berkeley location.
