1241 Westview Dr Berkeley, CA, 94705

Neighborhood: Claremont Hills

$2,395,000 Home pending 3 beds 3 baths 2,424 sqft

Jack Hillmer, the elusive architect of 1241 Westview Dr, was enthralled by nature and modernist design: the home feels nearly carved from the hillside, rising like an extension of the land itself. Through the stone entry, turn a corner into the stunning open-concept space. The ceilings are vaulted, oak supported by redwood beams. A stone fireplace grounds the space, & is flanked by floor-to-ceiling windows that frame the breathtaking Bay views. The living area spans the length of the home, & tucked just behind, walled with built-in bookshelves, is the office. From here is the first floor bathroom, tiled in a delicate blue. Around the corner is the kitchen; natural wood counters, concrete walls & a slate floor, with a dining room that flows to the backyard. A lawn and a luxurious fire pit are the cornerstones of this space, both private and expansive. Up the floating stairs, are the two bedrooms. They share a bright bathroom, with skylight and a wall of mirrors. From here, step out to the backyard courtyard, a peaceful space with a trickling fountain. Outside and downstairs, is the apartment; with a modern kitchen and bathroom. 1241 Westview must be experienced. On paper, it is 3 bedrooms, 3 bathrooms, 2424 sqft. In reality, it is a sculpture. It is art as much as it is a home.
