4 Bedroom Craftsman Retreat Rental

This exceptional home is located in one of Berkeley’s most coveted neighborhoods, close to the UC Berkeley campus yet worlds away from the hustle and bustle of university life, shops, and restaurants. Nestled in a serene redwood grove with its own microclimate, the property offers a peaceful retreat surrounded by historic walking paths, pocket parks, and lush, mature trees. The lot steps down toward the bay, providing peek views of the Golden Gate Bridge from expansive decks, patios, and lush gardens. A meticulously maintained hot tub invites you to unwind on foggy nights. This craftsman’s dream home blends reclaimed lumber, historic fittings, opulent trim, and decorative art glass with modern, spacious design. High vaulted ceilings, built-ins, and luxury wood finishes create a one-of-a-kind living experience. The home's sublime greenery is showcased through the many windows, offering views of lovingly maintained gardens. The large eat-in chef's kitchen boasts extensive storage, counter space, a gas range cooking station, and plenty of natural light through skylights and window boxes. The grand staircase, illuminated by an enormous oculus window, leads to a central hall accessing four bedrooms and the laundry room. The jaw-dropping entry hall, with vaulted ceilings, chandeliers, and intricate woodwork, flows into an oversized living area with a deck offering views across the home. A formal dining room, clad in solid wood panels, art glass windows, and broad archways, connects to the living area and entry hall. Remote workers will love the sophisticated study near the entry, a space that inspires a scholarly atmosphere. The master bedroom suite is a true retreat, with a large walk-in closet, living room with its own fireplace, and access to the back deck, hot tub, and gardens. Bedrooms two and three offer plenty of space and vintage closet doors, while the cozier fourth bedroom, the owner's favorite, would be perfect for a nursery, guest room, second office, or hobby room. There is one off-street parking space in the covered carport. The carport can be adapted to support electric vehicle charging. This home is a masterpiece of craftsmanship and comfort, with every detail thoughtfully designed. A must-see to fully appreciate its artistry and luxurious living. *We are an Equal Opportunity Housing Provider and follow all federal, state and local fair housing laws.* TO SCHEDULE AN APPOINTMENT TO SEE THIS PROPERTY OR TO APPLY VISIT OUR WEBSITE OR CALL ***Advertised rates and terms are subject to change.
