Description

A Front-Row Seat to the Bay: The Quintessential Berkeley Hills View Home Perched in the very heart of the Berkeley Hills, 155 Avenida Drive is a masterclass in hillside living. This isn’t just a residence; it’s a vantage point. Designed to celebrate its central, sought-after location, the home serves as a sophisticated gallery for the panoramic vistas that define Northern California.

The gorgeous living room with fireplace is the heart of the home and flows effortlessly to an expansive view deck, accessible from both the living and dining rooms. The living and dining rooms, with their exquisite wood walls, reflect its 1940 build date, and the house has been meticulously cared for, so period details abound while still meeting modern buyers' needs. The sliding glass doors make it easy to transition from an elegant dinner to an evening under the stars. Upstairs, the nice-sized bedrooms offer restful retreats, each positioned to capture the unique character of the hills. The home's versatility is further enhanced by an expansive downstairs living space. Complete with its own separate entrance, a convenient kitchenette, and a full bathroom, this level offers incredible flexibility for a variety of uses (please note, it is not permitted as a separate legal unit). It is a rare opportunity to own a piece of the Berkeley Hills that feels both tucked away and perfectly positioned at the center of it all. Home Energy Score: 3
