From the street, this 1952 house may resemble something from the space cartoon “The Jetsons,” but it is grounded in earthly pleasures. With a fantastic indoor – outdoor flow, almost every room in this house interacts with nature.*Level-in to an open living, dining room and kitchen area, there are sliding glass doors that connect from each space to the yard filled with mature fruit trees (fig, apple, plum, lemon & mandarin) encircling the house. Down the hallway are three bedrooms and a bathroom, each bedroom looking out to the verdant surrounds. The south facing one, has French doors that open to an intimate hot tub area.*Up a short flight of stairs is the double volume primary bedroom and loft office flooded with light. A small balcony looks onto the green Tilden hills, uninterrupted by other houses. To the west, you can see a bit of the bay and twinkling city views. Off the loft, there is an unenclosed flat roof (no kids) where there are more views all around.*Repleat w/ solar panels, backup bttry., electric car charger, 2 car garage, & grey water system. A 6-minute drive to North Berkeley or Kensington shops, & dwntwn. BART. Next to Tilden & Summit Reservoir Park.
