This stunning 1927 Tudor, with a completely renovated interior, is one of the larger homes in the desirable Monterey Market neighborhood. It has open, light filled spaces, custom wood details, oversized windows and doors and seamless indoor-outdoor flow. Originally renovated with an addition of the upper floor in 2006 by the previous owners. Since 2011, the current owners have made several improvements and an addition, resulting in a three-story home that epitomizes Northern California living, with gracious interiors and verdant low-maintenance exteriors. The esthetic is a sun-lit elegant, yet rustic, Japanese-modern feel. There is considerable flexibility in the use of spaces. With solar panels & other energy efficient features, it scores a "10" for BESO. Steps from the tennis courts, library, track, swimming pool & close to North Berkeley BART.
