Description
Nestled in prime Rockridge near Berkeley’s Elmwood, this enchanting 4BD/3BA Spanish-style home blends vintage charm with modern convenience. Sunlight pours through an open floor plan, highlighting a warm terracotta fireplace, original oak floors, and custom built-ins. The updated kitchen, with a wraparound breakfast bar and cozy nook, flows into a family or dining space—perfect for gatherings. Overlooking a lush, private backyard, this home is an entertainer’s dream and a serene retreat. Towering Birds of Paradise, fragrant citrus trees (fig, persimmon, lemon, mandarin), and an herb planter (parsley, basil, mint) frame the expansive outdoor kitchen. Birdsong, a lionhead fountain, a swinging bench and a steaming hot tub create a tranquil oasis. A versatile lower-level bonus room with a private entrance offers space for a home office, gym, or multigenerational living. A detached studio office provides a separate space to work from home. Energy-efficient features include solar panels. It has an EV charger, a Nest thermostat and a security system. Minutes from top-rated schools, shops, restaurants, BART, and freeway access, this storybook home captures the essence of Rockridge living.
