Property Description
Single family home lifestyle in this custom-built upper-level residence completely rebuilt from the ground up by the owner-builder for his family in 1998. This architectural North Berkeley home blends exceptional craftsmanship with thoughtful design, privacy, and an independent single-family feel. Much more affordable than a single family home; priced transparently, and sellers are offering to finance for buyers at 4% interest with at least 20% down (inquire for details). Part of an intimate two-unit building in the process of condo-conversion, the expansive upper-level home spans two stories with NO shared walls, generous living spaces, and custom detailing throughout. Main level features soaring ceilings, abundant natural light, hydronic heating, a beautifully updated chef’s kitchen with Thermador appliances, quartz countertops, wine fridge, and deck access, along with two bedrooms and two bathrooms including a spacious primary suite. Upstairs offers two additional bedrooms, a sitting area, brand new full bath, and sunny Ipe wood roof top deck with peek-a-boo views of the San Francisco Bay and Mt. Tamalpais. Exclusive-use front yard is over 1,000 sqft, with mature landscaping and newly poured concrete patio. Off-street parking and storage is also included and of exclusive use. Modern systems include steel-reinforced, engineered concrete foundation with seismic retrofitting, copper plumbing, Romex electrical wiring, dual-pane windows, sewer lateral compliance, and a brand new roof. Near North Berkeley BART, Monterey Market, Hopkins Street, Gourmet District, beloved Totland Playground, King pool, tennis and pickleball courts, and Ohlone Greenway. A rare opportunity offering the scale and privacy of a single-family home in one of Berkeley’s most coveted neighborhoods. Monthly dues are all inclusive, comprising of reserves, insurance, and all utilities. Seller financing and fractional financing options available through experienced local lenders.
