Perched high in the prestigious Berkeley Hills, this 5-bed, 4-bath masterpiece is a striking blend of elegance, strength, & modern luxury.

The lower level reveals a tranquil primary suite, complete with a private balcony, spa-inspired bath, & a generous walk-in closet. Additional highlights include gleaming hardwood floors, a two-car garage with 4 additional parking spaces, & a flexible bonus perfect for a home office, gym, or media retreat.
