You'll be so glad to come home to this custom-built tri-level contemporary, built in 1994 in the desirable Upper Rockridge area, just 1 mile to BART and so many of your favorite amenities. This 3+ bedroom home was designed by architect Stephen Elbert to capture light and the wonderful vistas to the south and west. Gleaming hardwood floors lead to the formal dining room, or take your dining pleasure out the french doors and up to your relaxing deck. The remodeled chef's kitchen with beautiful granite counters and an island, will make cooking for friends easy with so much cabinet space! A short walk past the bar area and powder room will take you to the formal dining room for those very special events. Afterwards, relax in the library in front of yet another fireplace, or make this your home office. On the 2nd level, you'll find the spacious primary suite, with a peek-a-boo view of the Bay. Top level has 2 more bedrooms and another full bath. Transportation options connect easily to Berkeley, downtown Oakland and SF, while you're just a few blocks to the Village Market & Terrace Gifts & Cafe. Enjoy the benefits of solar as well as the 2-car garage with washer & dryer & lots of storage space. Definitely not to be missed!
