Welcome to this custom North Berkeley Hills contemporary 2 bedroom/2 bathroom residence. Architect owned and designed to optimize natural light and panoramic views, the home epitomizes the '70s architectural principles of simplicity and a great flow, and the mid-century ideals of bringing the outdoors in. Floor-to-ceiling windows, an open floor plan, and a seating area reminiscent of a 1950s conversation pit all add to this home’s feeling of serenity and functionality. On the first level, find two bedrooms, one with a versatile open layout, each with its own en-suite bathroom and access to a private deck. Downstairs, the living room boasts over 15 foot ceilings and the dining area is surrounded by practical built-ins. Both spaces open to the main deck to sweeping views of the Bay, City and the Golden Gate. The updated kitchen has been designed to maximize counter space and views and has access to a side deck, an ideal BBQ spot. Completing this level is a spacious laundry and storage room. A few steps down, the mature and lush landscaped backyard is a blend of vibrant colors, serene seating areas and a flourishing vegetable garden. Outside, a covered carport includes additional storage. This home feels like a retreat, yet it is a mere 5m drive to all North Berkeley amenities.
