On February 15th, 1955, Mr. & Mrs. Manning set out to build their “dream” home in the Berkeley Hills. Little did they know over 6 decades later, this very home would hit the market for the very first time. This rare home offers a mid-century design with a Japanese-influence plus captivating stained glass details that adorn the custom-created elevator allowing ease & comfort for all. Perfect indoor & outdoor living spaces all surrounded by panoramic views & nature set on an expansive lot spanning over 7,000 square feet (per public record) with a private gazebo at the top. In the main home, you'll find an inviting ambiance, custom built-in bookshelves & an open flow between entry, dining, & living areas all silhouetted with the panoramic views of the Bay, San Francisco, GG & Bay Bridges. The kitchen retains its original character while offering modern appliances & fixtures. French doors off the main living & dining space open up to a private patio with the garden as its backdrop. On the entry level you will also find 2 bedrooms, including a primary suite with a private door to the garden & 2 bathrooms with a private laundry area. Descending to the lower level of the home you'll find separate guest quarters that boast 1 bedroom & 1 bathroom with so many possibilities!
