Own part of Berkeley history: The Keeler House, a 1895 masterwork of wood & glass by Bernard Maybeck. His first residential commission before designing San Francisco’s Palace of Fine Arts, was occupied by Charles Keeler when he wrote "The Simple Home". Originally a single home; converted to flats in 1920s, w/ 3rd unit added later. This 1++bed/1-bath upper unit—1,482 SF w/ loft & garage—has been lovingly owned & preserved by local designer & past owners. Interiors showcase handcrafted authenticity w/ orig oak floors, pitched ceilings w/ exposed CA Redwood beams, & nearly floor-to-ceiling windows framing serene nature views. Gothic doorway & brick fireplace details, recessed lighting & rich woodwork express Arts and Crafts style throughout. Upper loft offers space for study or meditation retreat & even a guest bed, while the kitchen & dining area include gas range, dishwasher & pantry storage. Outdoor living spaces offer private patio & Juliet balcony capturing Bay views. Golden Gate view can also be glimpsed from living room & private balcony. Common areas w/ laundry, terraced garden & attached garage w/ 1-car parking + extra storage. Convenient to UCB, Mills Act-protected property offers tax advantages & rare investment opportunity for an architecture lover or shrewd investor.

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listed by other member brokerages of the local Association of Realtors—unless the seller has requested that the listing not be published or marketed online.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.
