Open House Canceled. Inspired by and named for the celebrated rancho it supplanted, the California ranch home has become a Western icon in its own right. Like its predecessor, the ranch home places a premium on simplicity, utility, and a functional relationship between interior and exterior spaces. 1030 Middlefield Road, is a classic California ranch home situated on a quiet, tree-lined street in Berkeley's pastoral Park Hills. Back in the days of the California Republic the property bordered the Peralta and El Sobrante ranchos. And until the 1950's, Park Hills was part of Contra Costa County. Now, firmly ensconced in Alameda County, Park Hills is fully incorporated into Berkeley and its school district. The great outdoors is never far; enjoy hillside views from the sun dappled front porch, or entertain guests with your brick fireplace/grill on the back patio. Tilden Park – Lake Anza, the carousel, golf course, and hiking and biking trails galore – are literally just down the street. Inside, there's a wood-burning fireplace, hardwood floors throughout, and skylights galore. The kitchen has newer countertops, plenty of storage, and connects with the attached garage. You're a short five minute car or AC Transit bus ride to downtown Berkeley, the Gourmet Ghetto, and UC campus. And, of course, the greatest city in the world, San Francisco, is just a twenty-five minute car ride away (providing traffic is light). All this and so much more. Imagine the possibilities!
