Off the market 3 beds 2 full + 1 half baths 2,174 sqft
Nestled on the corner of Virginia and La Loma, this historic gem in Berkeley, California, tells a tale that began in 1894. Under the thoughtful guidance of its architect-owner since 1973, the residence has undergone tasteful updates, blending original redwood details with 1970s Danish modern enhancements. The home enjoys a prime location, offering proximity to UC Berkeley campus and North Berkeley amenities, with elevated views of the Bay Area, including the Bay Bridge, San Francisco skyline, and the Golden Gate Bridge. Inside, doors open gracefully to decks and patios, allowing the home to harmonize with its surroundings. Skylights and clerestory windows infuse the interior with light, forging a connection between indoors and outdoors. A stately live oak tree at the front provides both a shield from the street and a unique arboreal embrace, lending the house a distinctive treehouse feel. The large living room, ideal for entertaining, boasts a bay-facing window with a generous bench for panoramic views. Beyond its architectural allure, this residence surprises with charming details. A toddler-sized tunnel upstairs leads to a magical lookout, and hidden cabinets behind redwood panels in the dining room create an enchanting retreat for the young and young at heart.
