About this home

Elevated above the Bay in Arlington Hills & Berkeley Country neighborhood, just moments from the Kensington border and served by the highly regarded Kensington Hilltop Elementary School District, this beautifully updated residence offers approximately 2,716± square feet of refined living space with four bedrooms, three and a half bathrooms, and sweeping views of the San Francisco Bay, the Golden Gate Bridge, Angel Island and Mt. Tamalpais. On clear days, these iconic water views provide an extraordinary backdrop to everyday living. Expansive windows fill the home with natural light while framing ever-changing views from many of the principal living spaces, creating a seamless connection between the indoors and the surrounding water views & landscape. Designed for both elegant entertaining and comfortable everyday living, the spacious floor plan offers generous gathering spaces, timeless finishes, and an inviting sense of warmth throughout. At the heart of the home, the beautifully remodeled kitchen features abundant cabinetry, generous workspace, and effortless flow to the dining and living areas. The impressive primary suite is a true private retreat, complete with panoramic outlooks, a spacious sitting area, a newly installed ductless mini-split climate system, and a luxurious spa-inspired bathroom featuring a custom walk-in shower, designed for everyday relaxation. Outside, beautifully landscaped terraced gardens unfold beneath a canopy of mature trees, where winding pathways, multiple decks, and inviting outdoor living spaces create a peaceful hillside retreat. Whether enjoying morning coffee, entertaining at sunset, or watching the city lights shimmer across the Bay, the grounds offer a rare sense of privacy and tranquility while remaining close to everything the East Bay has to offer. Beautifully updated and meticulously maintained, this move-in-ready residence features a newer roof, new sewer lateral, quality modern improvements, and exceptional pride of ownership throughout. Offering a rare combination of size, views, location, and modern updates—with no HOA—this exceptional home is just minutes from Kensington Village, Solano Avenue, Wildcat Canyon, Tilden Regional Park, UC Berkeley, BART, and an easy commute to San Francisco. Excellent value for a Kensington school district. Largest living and primary bedroom spaces you can find in the area. All bedrooms are over-sized. This family home has been lovingly owned for 32 years.
