Nestled at the end of a cul-de-sac in the Berkeley Hills near Tilden Park, this home offers a peaceful retreat with stunning gardens and unparalleled privacy and serenity. Custom built in 1967 by the current owners, the warm and inviting atmosphere features a high vaulted entryway and an open-concept living area with redwood paneled ceilings and custom details. Large windows throughout the home frame stunning views of the gardens and adjacent open space. The thoughtful design creates a perfect balance of shared and private spaces, with 4 bedrooms, 3.5 baths, a comfortable den, and a large office with built-in desks and bookcases. An expansive outdoor deck connects the main living space with beautifully landscaped gardens, mature fruit trees, stone walkways, seating areas, and a seasonal creek. The spacious 4th bedroom has direct access to the garden and side deck. This house is lovingly maintained, with freshly refinished hardwood floors throughout and a new class A fire rated roof with transferable warranty. This is the perfect sanctuary for those seeking quiet, access to nature, and proximity to UC Berkeley and the vibrant culture of the Bay Area. A must-see! Bonus: PG&E is undergrounding wires for additional fire protection. Street repaving slated for early 2026 per PG&E.
