Berkeley Hills 3bd, 2.5 bath home: Bay views, charm meets nature and luxury

This charming, tastefully appointed, fully-furnished and light-filled Tudor with views of the San Francisco Bay & Golden Gate Bridge is available for rent. Situated in one of the most coveted neighborhoods near campus, this remodeled 3+ bedroom, 2.5 bathroom, 2 office home offers a rare combination of peace, privacy, architectural character and modern comfort. Additional rooms include dining room, kitchen with breakfast nook, family room and laundry room. A deck off of the kitchen and from the second floor are great for watching sunsets, and a front patio and lush back yard with tile and wood hardscape allow plenty of space for al fresco dining and entertaining.

In addition to being within walking and biking distance to campus, this home also boasts close proximity to Tilden Park’s vast hiking and biking trail systems, Berkeley Botanical gardens, Berkeley’s Gourmet Ghetto restaurants, and Albany’s Solano Avenue shops and restaurants. It is ideal for those who enjoy nature and serene environments while still enjoying the urban culture and restaurants offered in the East Bay. The neighborhood is known for its architectural beauty, strong community, serenity and appeal to academics, artists and executives.

With a high-quality renovation to be completed in May 2025, the 1920s home meticulously blends old world elements (such as arched openings, built-in cabinets, soaring barrel ceilings) with high amenities and finishes. Example recent updates include: remodeled kitchen with SubZero fridge, Thermador range, and built-in Miele coffee machine; ensuite spa-like bathroom with soaking tub; new den with French doors that step out to new front patio; beautiful lighting fixtures; complete exterior and interior paint; and new landscaping. An updated 3D exterior rendering is shown in the photos and floor plans are available; photos of completed house will be available when remodeling is complete. The curated decor respects the home’s history while reflecting an updated vibe. Driveway and street parking can accommodate several cars.

We are seeking an individual or family who will appreciate this rare opportunity to experience the best of what the region has to offer – intellectual vibrancy, natural beauty, and architectural grace – during their stay.
