Property Description
Ascend the stairs to Casa de la Luz, a light filled, romantic 1930’s Mediterranean home and garden with glorious views and total privacy, set into a hillside of magnificent old growth oak trees in Berkeley’s most storied residential park, The Claremont. This architectural jewel was designed by renowned Californian architect E. L. Snyder, who’s work was inspired by the “architecturally perfect ” homes he encountered on the Spanish Mediterranean island of Mallorca. The home features spacious light filled rooms on three levels with 5 bedrooms, 3.5 bathrooms, and a one-car garage / pantry. The front balconies provide sweeping views of the San Francisco Bay and spectacular sunsets over Mount Tamalpais. The master bedroom features a spa bathroom with steam room, soaking tub, radiant floors and a private garden balcony with an outdoor shower. The back yard, reminiscent of the secret walled gardens of San Miguel de Allende, is completely private. Close to BART, Freeways, Restaurants, Shops.

No recorded sales in this range. Select All available for older records; missing records do not mean the home never sold.
ZIP averages use publicly displayable closed sales from our licensed MLS feed, matched to the same ZIP and exact property type. Months with fewer than 3 sales are omitted; the current month is incomplete. Lines connect available monthly observations across gaps and do not represent measured prices in missing months. These averages are not adjusted for size, condition, or location within the ZIP, and are not an appraisal. Feed coverage may not include every sale. All available shows the available home and ZIP history, with mortgage rates over the same dates.
Mortgage benchmark: Freddie Mac Primary Mortgage Market Survey®. © Freddie Mac. Weekly national 30-year fixed rates, not APRs or a loan quote. Actual terms vary. Methodology changed in November 2022. The chart does not establish that interest-rate changes caused a home’s price changes.
Lines connect recorded asking and sale prices. They are visual guides, not estimates of the home’s value between those dates.
