260 Alvarado Rd, Berkeley, CA 94705

This gem of a Tuscan mediterranean home, tucked back high on the hill with views and more views, is luscious and delightful! Every nook and cranny of the property speaks to its creative, imaginative and romantic style. Vistas from large windows everywhere invite you to partake in the gorgeous Bay and City views. The property invites you into every room with rich, vital and fun touches every which way you look. The entry is large and open, leading you into the living room with gas fireplace and huge views from the large windows, or into the dining room, with its charming faux painted pass-through to the chef's kitchen. Down the hallway you are met with a large full bathroom, the laundry, and two bedrooms- one of which we are showing as an office. The spacious rear bedroom has charming doors to a delightful balcony for sunning oneself like a sleepy cat. The large staircase takes you to the lower level where there is an expansive family room with fireplace, another bedroom that is shown as a media room, and another bedroom and sumptuous full bathroom. There are doors that open out onto the delightful patio/deck that has plenty of room for tables, chairs, fire pit, you name it. This lovely space also leads to the exterior of the house. Off the kitchen there is another deck area, perfect for casual dining and lovely parties. The property has a two car garage, and another off-street parking space at the top of the property. Right off Alvarado Road, this property is within blocks of delightful Elmwood shops and the Claremont Hotel, with easy commute options and routes in all directions. A home like this is truly rare. Come see it for yourself!
