★Lovely Mid-Century Modern Gem! ★BAY VIEWS★ HOT TUB★PARKING! ★PETS WELCOME!
Our unique and charming Mid-Century modern gem is located in the North Berkeley Hills. Beautiful bay views, cozy gas fireplace, fenced yard with flower garden, and a 700 sq/ft deck with hot tub are just some of the many features of this modern marvel. Our lovely home awaits your stay.
Imagine sipping a glass of wine while sitting on your private deck listening to birds singing in the trees and watching the sun set over the bay. Imagine enjoying a long soak in the hot tub while watching the city lights dance in the sky. Imagine enjoying a home in the beautiful and serene North Berkekey Hills and yet still being walking distance to endless shops, restaurants, parks and the UC Campus. Imagine being so close to everything and yet feeling a million miles away from the noisy hustle and bustle of the city. If this is the space your are imagining for your stay in Berkeley then our home is right for you.
This lovely home was built by a renewed 1960's post-war architect who was known for his inventive and eccentric touches to the homes he designed. Many original details abound in this Mid-Century gem. Floor-to-ceiling windows in the living room and bedrooms fill these rooms with bright sunshine and open the rooms to lovely views of the bay. The garden view out the living room window looks like a painting come to life. The large windows infuse the home with light and views from every direction. The hardwood floors gleam and the cool 1960's wet bar beckons you to make an evening cocktail. The gas fireplace will keep you warm on those foggy days.
Our lovely space features:
-New furnishings, mattresses and linens.
-Beautiful bay views from the deck, living room an bedrooms.
-A fenced yard with a 700+sq/ft deck, a flower garden and filtered bay views. Outdoor couches make this area superb for lounging. Enjoy your morning coffee on the sunny deck while watching the local family of deer trotting down the road. String lights bring a warm ambiance to the evening for outdoor lounging on the deck. Fully fenced for your furry friends!
-A hot tub.
- A sunny and bright living room with floor-to-ceiling windows, hardwood floors, a cozy gas fireplace, views of the bay, treetops and the flower garden. Decorated in typical mid-century modern decor. Pull out comfy Queen sofa bed.

-A gourmet kitchen with a double oven, a gas range, a dishwasher, chopping block and a fully stocked kitchen awaiting your gourmet meals. Enjoy a visit to one of the many local farmers markets and then cook up a gourmet meal in our kitchen.
- Two huge and sunny upstairs bedrooms with wall-to-ceiling windows and bay views. Bedrooms have luxurious king beds with new mattresses and memory foam pillow tops. New bedding and furniture. Sleep soundly for hours in these dreamy beds. Rooms also have 2 closets and dresser space. One bedroom has a desk in case you need to work on your vacation.
-One smaller, detached bedroom with a twin day bed that pulls out to a king sized bed or 2 twins. PLEASE NOTE: This space is detached from the main inner living space.

Living in Berkeley is wonderful. How we love all the incredible restaurants! We hope you love Berkeley and our home as much as we do!
