Description
Step into this reimagined 1906 Bushrod beauty—a seamless blend of timeless character and modern luxury. Meticulously renovated in 2019, this exceptional 4-bedroom + office residence offers a highly functional floorplan with refined upgrades and curated finishes throughout.
Upon entering the home, a distinguished central staircase sets the tone. Just past it, the kitchen, dining, and living spaces of the open-concept great room flow effortlessly out to a covered veranda and lush backyard. Hosting is a joy with accordion doors and a pass-through kitchen window, perfect for outdoor brunches or twilight cocktails. The main level also features a guest suite, powder room, and a cozy bonus space ideal as a playroom or creative nook.
Upstairs, three bedrooms and a dedicated office orbit a spacious family lounge—perfect for movie nights, homework sessions, or quiet evenings in. The primary suite impresses with a charming bay window, a generous walk-in closet, and a spa-like bathroom featuring a soaking tub. Each bathroom features designer ceramic tile and a custom quartz-topped vanity, including the primary’s dramatic 48” trough sink.
Thoughtful extras set this home apart: custom closet systems, live-edge cabinetry, a finished attic, mature fruit trees, and an attached garage with interior access. All this, just moments from Ashby BART, Temescal hotspots, Rockridge dining, and Downtown Berkeley—East Bay living at its finest.
A property of this distinction is rare—and unforgettable.
