9 Harvard Cir, Berkeley, CA 94708

Designed by architect Harry Nakahara in 1953, this quintessential mid-century home in the Berkeley Hills has had only two owners, so the original features and character of the home remain intact! The house is situated at the end of a cul-de-sac and beautifully oriented to capture the panoramic three-bridge view, the San Francisco skyline, sunsets over the Bay, Mt Tamalpais, and a lovely vignette of our very own Campanile. The clean horizontal lines, level-in entry, open spaces, expanses of glass, and minimalist indoor/outdoor aesthetic are as appealing now as they were when first introduced in the postwar period. This is truly a family heirloom, ready for the next owner to love and cherish. Features: Street level: -Skylit entry hall with concrete block "garden wall" and new oak floor (August 2018) -Wood paneling -Open living/dining room with wide-plank refinished floors, fireplace and floor-to-ceiling windows -Sliding doors to large southwest-facing deck -Galley kitchen -Bedroom wing with a master suite plus 2 bedrooms/1 bath -2-car garage Lower level: -Laundry room -1 bedroom/1 bath -Lots of bonus space with separate entrance for workshop or storage Enjoy the peaceful serenity of the Berkeley Hills without sacrificing convenience.

And you can't beat the location for access to Tilden and Redwood hiking and biking trails.
