Nestled in the prestigious Berkeley Hills on a private drive, this Bernard Maybeck-inspired residence offers a rare opportunity to own a piece of architectural history. Perched on a serene hillside with breathtaking Bay views, this home seamlessly blends craftsman elegance with modern luxury. The light-filled interior showcases vaulted ceilings, original woodwork, and floor-to-ceiling windows framing panoramic vistas (views from every room). The updated kitchen flows beautifully to a spacious deck perfect for indoor-outdoor entertaining. Three well-appointed bedrooms, including a sumptuous primary suite with gorgeous bathroom, provide a comfortable retreat. A separate home office offers the perfect work-from-home space, and the sellers combined the laundry room with a home gym space! Offering an extensive seismic retrofit (2021) and Tesla EV charger in a 2 car carport. Located on fabled “Nut Hill”, 5 Maybeck Twin is a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity to own a distinguished piece of Berkeley history. This home was designed by Bob “Red” Kleyn-Schorel (cousin of local legend Jacomena Maybeck) who built many homes along MTD and Buena Vista. Minutes to Tilden Park, Corodonices and the Rose Garden, BART, + Gourmet Village.

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by other member brokerages of the local Association of Realtors—unless the seller has requested that the listing not be published or marketed online.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