The majesty of California Mediterranean architecture informs this sophisticated North Berkeley residence, matched only by sparkling bay views and the fresh modernity of its refined finishes. Infused with glorious light, and embraced by lush gardens and tailored patios, the sprawling layout creates an easy-going, quintessential, indoor-outdoor livability in a sought-after North Berkeley location. The welcoming foyer intersects expansive living spaces: the living room with deep picture windows and a handsome Spanish tiled wood burning fireplace, a generous dining room, a casual lounge/media room, plus a guest suite/office and full bath. A professionally equipped, custom kitchen is fitted with custom cabinetry, Thermador suite of appliances, a home study center with separate coffee center/ drinks bar, plus a massive work island and access to the outdoor dining area. Anchored by wide-plank oak flooring and elevated by art-quality lighting, the thoughtful interior architecture includes beautifully articulated storage, built-in seating, and a jewel-box powder room. A dramatic open staircase leads to the private quarters: three bedrooms and two luxe baths; the primary suite is a spa-like retreat with a fireplace, a custom designed stone and tile bath with a deep soaking tub, custom closets, and access to the private patio. Teak decking surrounds the home and an outdoor living room with a gas fireplace overlooks the hills and sparkling views of the bay and downtown San Francisco. The two-car garage is fitted with a green roof teaming with succulents and ornamental grasses. The meaningful flow of this airy open-plan home is a celebration of the natural world, California living at its best, inviting large-scale entertaining as well as intimate family life. The home is also proximate to spectacular hiking and recreation, with easy access to the culture rich Berkeley shopping and dining.
