Tucked among the trees in the lower North Berkeley Hills, this striking contemporary home offers a rare sense of privacy and calm. Designed to connect seamlessly with its natural setting, the residence features soaring ceilings, multiple skylights, and decks on every level that bring the outdoors in. Recent updates add a fresh, modern feel while preserving the warmth of natural wood, tile, and stone throughout the home. The entry level includes two generously sized bedrooms, an updated split bathroom, and a shared deck overlooking lush greenery. Upstairs, the main living level showcases a dramatic living room that opens to a wide front deck—an inviting space for entertaining or relaxing among the treetops. At the center of the home, the thoughtfully planned kitchen is equipped with granite countertops, a Wolf cooktop, and new stainless steel appliances installed in 2025. The top floor is devoted to a spacious primary suite featuring its own private deck, along with a neighboring office where a large picture window frames sweeping views of the San Francisco Bay. Set in a tranquil neighborhood known for its network of hidden pathways and nearby parks, the home also offers convenient access to North Berkeley’s renowned dining scene, UC Berkeley, and BART.
