Perched in the hills above the UC Berkeley campus with filtered views of San Francisco Bay and privacy afforded by its adjacent properties, this spacious, secluded 1939 home was designed by the architect of UC Berkeley's Alumni House and the Packard House in Los Altos Hills. Virgin clear redwood lines the home's entry, gracious and generously sized living room with brick fireplace and dining room. A wall of windows invites the outside in from a huge patio at the entrance, making it ideal for entertaining in warm weather. Main level's master en suite bedroom connects to cozy adjacent office. Smaller second bedroom/den and full bath off hall. Self-contained lower level has separate entrance to au pair/family/common room with kitchenette, two bedrooms, a full bath and utility room with access to private deck. Two adjacent lots totaling 18,469 sq ft included in purchase price.
