Sotheby’s International Realty: Custom Berkeley Hills Haven
Custom built in 2010, this Berkeley Hills haven is invested throughout with innovations geared to grant every conceivable comfort. Three floors of sumptuous living space framed by picture-window-and-door expanses of glass meld visually with verdant vistas and open to cantilevered terraces presenting Bay views. Public spaces flow together gracefully while bedrooms enjoy seclusion, each floor presenting a bedroom and full bath; additional spaces include a bona fide office and sunroom.
The home’s composition fuses dynamic architectural spaces, energy-efficient amenities, and consummate structural integrity, all enveloped by natural splendor. Gathering places invite dwellers to dine formally or casually, savor views, to gather around a fire or culinary activities. The living room’s travertine-surround gas fireplace has the power to heat the entire main floor; the master suite contains another.
Designed by an avid cook, the kitchen unites optimum function and finesse. Professional-caliber appliances include an Electrolux gas range with double ovens, warming drawer, and Sub-Zero built-in wine storage. Bountiful and beautiful marble comprises tile backsplashes by Ann Sacks that harmonize with Calacatta slab on counters.
While grandly proportioned, the master retreat feels blissfully snug. Extravagances such as a terrace beholding the landscaped garden, plus a gas fireplace, combine with a dressing-room-closet that embodies a suite in itself. Custom blackout-security shutters drape the exterior on demand electronically. An oasis with airy dimensions, the master bath sets apart its two vanities for personal space.
The abundance of integrated systems generating energy conservation, comfort, and convenience continues with dual tankless instant water heaters, temperature-regulation, surround-sound and television setup with all wiring concealed and consolidated in collective facilities room, and electric-vehicle charging station within an attached garage.
