This modern and private residence, designed by famed Oakland architects: Wilson Associates, invites calm, creative living. 

The moment you reach the wonderfully crafted home, a strong sense of ease will wash over you. Hidden behind the vine-covered fence that lines the lot, a bright foyer beckons you to explore the open-concept entry-level. In the living room and kitchen, high-end materials echo nature: floor-to-ceiling windows, polished concrete floors, and warm wood paneling. Let your eyes wander over the contemporary fireplace’s stone mantel before heading over to the gourmet, eat-in kitchen. Light wood and glass pane cabinets make for a stylish, airy aesthetic while stainless steel appliances, integrated lighting, large pantries, and a double-bowl farmhouse sink add convenience. 

From the kitchen, glass sliders open up to the backyard and rambling vines climb the pergola, offering shade to the stone patio. Grill out in your urban oasis and dine al fresco under the setting California sun. A flagstone path curves along the landscaped, yet low-maintenance garden where secluded seating areas are aplenty. 

While heading upstairs, you’ll discover a powder room and additional outdoor seating through a small, private patio. Once on the second floor, make note of the closets that line the hallway; lack of storage will be a long-forgotten memory! The bedrooms’  large casement windows usher in light and ensuites (plus a walk-in closet with built-ins) are an added luxury. What’s more, the office or zoom room, will allow for quiet, inspiring workdays.

When you’re looking to explore, you’re in luck, the location is stellar! You’re just down the road from Ashby BART, shuttles, local cafes, the farmers market, and the much-beloved, Berkeley Bowl Marketplace.
