Remarks

Classic 1920s Berkeley hillside home on an expansive 13024 sq ft cul-de-sac lot in sought-after Thousand Oaks, offering a rare opportunity to restore, reimagine, and create long-term value in a well-established residential setting. Positioned on a sloped, terraced parcel with a defined driveway approach, the property offers a quiet, wooded setting and separation from the street. Approx. 2177 sq ft of living space with 5BR/2BA, including 4 bedrooms on the upper level and an additional lower-level bedroom. A formal entry opens to a central living room with fireplace, hardwood floors, and large windows framing surrounding greenery. Adjoining dining area connects comfortably to the main living space. The interior, including the eat-in kitchen, retains vintage 1926-era character, and offers opportunity for thoughtful redesign and modernization over time. Lower level adds flexibility with guest bedroom, office, or future-use potential, plus laundry room and storage. Terraced outdoor spaces include mature landscaping, pathways, stone retaining walls, and usable hillside zones. Detached garage and off-street parking. Near Solano Ave shops, cafes, schools, UC Berkeley, North Berkeley, Albany, Marin Ave, The Alameda, and key East Bay commute routes. Required City of Berkeley Energy Score i
