Brace yourself for a blend of historic charm and modern luxury that exceeds every expectation. With 2+ bedrooms, 1 bath, updated aesthetic details and incredible practical ones this home offers a blend of timeless Berkeley charm and contemporary modern comfort.

Why This Home is a Game-Changer:

Prime Location, Unbeatable Convenience: Situated in the heart of the Thousand Oaks neighborhood in Berkeley, enjoy convenient access to cafes, shops, parks, and public transit, all within reach of your new front door.
Jaw-Dropping Updates: A newer foundation, newer roof, electrical (say goodbye to knob & tube!), paint, plumbing and so much more, this home has undergone massive updates to its systems to ensure worry-free living for years to come.
Craftsman Charm: From the moment you drive up to the house, you'll be enchanted by the classic Craftsman details, warm hues of soft greens, blues and a touch of yellow to greet you with warmth. The woodwork, inviting fireplace, and original architectural elements add character and charm to every room but don’t worry, there are still a few places awaiting your personal touch.  
A Kitchen ready for even more: Fabulous updated new stainless appliances (2024) are silhouetted by the new tile backsplash, polished quartz counters and newly laid tile floors (2024), allowing the perfect backdrop for your culinary moments- plus being an eat-in kitchen you can cook with loved ones or just entertain. Cooking will never feel like a chore again.
Effortless Entertaining: The flexible layout has a perfect flow and so many possibilities. Do you need a home office, like the current seller did? The sun porch was a perfect space for that – offering light and access to the fenced-in garden offering a wonderful space for business or play! And don’t forget the separate laundry room off the kitchen! Could that laundry room become a second bathroom?* Who knows! Let your imagination run wild with the many possibilities.*
Spacious, One-Level Living: Say goodbye to stairs and hello to the ease of single-level living. With 2+ bedrooms and a stylishly updated bathroom, this home offers comfort and functionality at its finest. Whether you're starting your real estate journey, downsizing, or looking for a forever home, this layout caters to your lifestyle needs.
Additional Highlights:
  • Gleaming hardwood floors throughout adding a touch of warmth.
  • Updated practical components, see the extensive list of upgrades! Just too many to list!

about this

Neighborhood

Perched above the city and offering the best  panoramic views in the entire Bay Area, North Berkeley Hills is an incredibly peaceful residential neighborhood, yet not far from the hustle and bustle of the city’s more urban areas. Homes in the neighborhood are built in a variety of styles and feature spacious patio decks, manicured lawns and lushly landscaped gardens. 

Depending on where you live, North Berkeley Hills residents can enjoy views of the San Francisco and Oakland skylines, the Golden Gate Bridge, Alcatraz Island, and Mount Tamalpais. For even more great views plus a variety of great outdoor activities, residents can take a short trip to nearby Tilden Regional Park. Park amenities vary between free and paid activities. Free activities available at TIlden Park include a beautiful botanical garden, the Little Farm, and nearly 40 miles of scenic hiking trails. For a small fee, the public can also swim at Lake Anza, take a spin on the Merry-Go-Round, or enjoy a round of golf at Tilden Park Golf Course.

Some residents in the southern part of North Berkeley Hills are within walking distance of the thriving retail district on Solano Avenue. Featuring a wide variety of stores, shops, and plenty of great restaurants, including:
Safeway Community Markets: Located at the southwest corner of Solano and Fresno Avenues, this is a great place to check off everything on your grocery list.
Noor & Sons Rug Gallery: Find handcrafted Oriental Rugs for your home, as well as rug cleaning and repair services.
Peet’s Coffee: It all started in Berkeley, and this location is ideal for your morning cup of coffee before you begin your commute.
Additionally, foodies who love a variety of cuisines are just a short walk or drive away from the infamous Gourmet Ghetto neighborhood.

Despite its elevated location, North Berkeley Hills is extremely transit-friendly. The Alameda-Contra Costa Transit District bus lines that serve the neighborhood drop residents at the Downtown Berkeley BART station for a quick commute to downtown San Francisco. Berkeley Hills residents who live near the western section of the neighborhood are less than one mile away from the heart of UC Berkeley, making it a great area for faculty and administrators to live.
