RARE and MAGICAL! A once in a lifetime opportunity to own a piece of Berkeley History. Perched on a private knoll, this 2-story hand hewn redwood cottage offers spectacular Bay views, the serenity of a mountain Hideaway, and a colorful past. Exquisite custom detailing perfectly incorporates the provenance and soul of this special home while meeting today’s modern lifestyle. Romantic primary bedroom with fireplace, remodeled bath, a deck to enjoy sunsets and a perfect bay view. Built in the early 1920’s for himself and his wives, Scottish Engineer and Jungian psychologist Andrew Shirra Gibb created a compound which once included the two wood homes below. The house has inspired a diverse cast of characters from the dashing violinists of the world-renowned Griller String Quartet and crew of 1993 film The Joy Luck Club who filmed a scene in the living room.

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by other member brokerages of the local Association of Realtors—unless the seller has requested that the listing not be published or marketed online.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