As you walk the grounds of this elegant Mediterranean-style home in North Berkeley, notice the olive trees, cypresses, lavender & fountains. The expertly designed garden spaces will transport you to Tuscany while the views of the Golden Gate & the sparkling waters of the Bay will anchor you right where you are, in the North Berkeley foothills & just steps from all the area has to offer. Through the grand front door you're greeted with a formal entryway, leading to a spacious living room with vaulted ceilings & breathtaking views. The dining room offers a charming balcony for sunset views. The epic kitchen was entirely redesigned with top of the line Miele appliances, custom cabinetry & endless storage. From the eat-in kitchen, step onto a beautiful Ipe deck overlooking a mature, landscaped yard. The main level also features a spacious bedroom, updated bath & formal study. Upstairs, find 2 en-suite bedrooms, each with views. The primary suite flows to a magnificently updated bathroom with gorgeous onyx throughout. The downstairs boasts an amazing family room & large bedroom with exterior access, full bath & generous laundry room. Large detached garage & finished plus space (rec room, co-work space?) add even more options to this special property. Close to shops, BART and more!
