Old-world elegance meets everyday comfort on one of Claremont Court’s most coveted tree-lined streets. Set on a corner lot in this historic Berkeley neighborhood, the gracious Spanish style residence welcomes visitors with a grand front entry, wrought iron details and Juliet balconies. Generous proportions, period accents, gleaming hardwood floors and fresh paint create a timeless backdrop. A grand living room with floor-to-ceiling windows, a central fireplace and gently curved ceilings is complemented by a light-filled formal dining room. The spacious eat-in kitchen features abundant storage, a bay window and garden access through the adjoining laundry room. A main-level bedroom and bath offer flexibility for guests or an office. Upstairs, a skylit landing connects four generous bedrooms, each with an en-suite bath. The luxurious primary suite includes large closets, a cozy sitting room and luxurious bath with a jetted tub and walk-in shower. A finished basement storage area, detached garage and driveway parking add convenience. Outside, the rear deck and patio form a charming oasis beneath the trees. There is room to dine, unwind and cultivate a garden in a peaceful residential setting near Elmwood and College Avenue shops, cafés and restaurant, as well as UC Berkeley, outdoor destinations and transportation. Rare combination of architectural presence, generous living spaces and a wonderfully convenient location. HOME ENERGY SCORE 1.
