Perfectly poised in the heart of Berkeley, this exceptional 2016 custom-built home by G.J. Gardner is a masterclass in thoughtful design, style, & effortless livability. Rarely does a layout feel intuitive—where every space flows, balancing openness with purpose, function & elevated design. The expansive main level unfolds beautifully with a wide open floor plan anchored by an oversized living room, generous dining, and a stunning gourmet kitchen designed for gathering. Floor-to-ceiling windows flood the home with natural light, while design-forward window treatments and timeless finishes create a sophisticated atmosphere. A spacious main-floor office offers the ideal work-from-home retreat, tucked thoughtfully away from the primary living spaces. Upstairs, three generously sized bedrooms, all on one level, provide comfort and privacy, while the home’s five baths are beautifully appointed with enduring, high-quality finishes, three of which have heated floors. The finished basement is exceptional—offering a secondary living and entertainment space complete with projector, bedroom, and an enormous storage room. Crowning the home is a spectacular rooftop studio and lounge space with wet bar- perfect as a gym, creative studio, secondary office, or inspiring retreat. From this elevated perch, take in sweeping mountain views and unforgettable sunsets. Outside, the home is equally captivating. An enchanting English-inspired lilac garden welcomes you from the front, perched gracefully above the street for both privacy and presence. The mature landscaping and accordion doors blending indoors and out create multiple destinations to entertain, dine, stargaze, or simply enjoy quiet Colorado evenings under the open sky. Oversized 2-car garage is the finishing touch to this incredible property. All of this, just moments from the vibrant shops, restaurants, and neighborhood energy of Tennyson Street and Highlands Square—offering the very best of Berkeley living at your doorstep.
