Nestled in prime Rockridge near Berkeley’s Elmwood, this enchanting 4BD/3BA Spanish-style home blends vintage charm with modern convenience. Sunlight pours through an open floor plan, highlighting a warm terracotta fireplace, original oak floors, and custom built-ins. The updated kitchen, with a wraparound breakfast bar and cozy nook, flows into a family or dining space—perfect for gatherings. Overlooking a lush, private backyard, this home is an entertainer’s dream and a serene retreat. Towering Birds of Paradise, fragrant citrus trees (fig, persimmon, lemon, mandarin), and an herb planter (parsley, basil, mint) frame the expansive outdoor kitchen. Birdsong, a lionhead fountain, a swinging bench and a steaming hot tub create a tranquil oasis. A versatile lower-level bonus room with a private entrance offers space for a home office, gym, or multigenerational living. A detached studio office provides a separate space to work from home. Energy-efficient features include solar panels. It has an EV charger, a Nest thermostat and a security system. Minutes from top-rated schools, shops, restaurants, Star Market, BART, and freeway access, this storybook home captures the essence of Rockridge living.

As a licensed real estate brokerage, Estately has access to the same database professional Realtors use: the Multiple Listing Service (or MLS). That means we can display all the properties listed by other member brokerages of the local Association of Realtors—unless the seller has requested that the listing not be published or marketed online.
The MLS is widely considered to be the most authoritative, up-to-date, accurate, and complete source of real estate for-sale in the USA.
Estately updates this data as quickly as possible and shares as much information with our users as allowed by local rules. Estately can also email you updates when new homes come on the market that match your search, change price, or go under contract.
