1390 Summit Rd, Berkeley, CA 94708

Property Description

Mid-Century magic with a sunny disposition & bright outlook on the Bay, 1390 Summit is the peak of Berkeley Hills living. Summit Road is indeed the apex with Tilden at its back and the Bay at its feet. Showcasing most of its original Mid-century Modern virtues from slate flagstones to warm wood paneling to classic light fixtures to the bathroom complete with robin’s egg blue matching tub, toilet, and sink. Exposed wood ceilings & rafters. Hardwood floors. Fireplace. Spacious open floor plan with fantastic updated kitchen. Step out to the upper deck from the kitchen or the living room - a great spot to feel the sun and listen to the birds by day, and for dinner al fresco when the sunsets are spectacular. You might even hear an owl. There are two lower decks, the one off the primary bedroom even has a cedar hot tub where there, too, is a peek of the Bay. Plenty of opportunity to garden in the side yard with its raised beds, fully-fenced so you don’t have to share your veggies with the deer. The garage, with its fabulous wide-plank wood floors seems better suited as an art studio. A perfect perch above it all while still being in the mix - Tilden trails across the street, Lawrence Hall of Science and UC Berkeley down the road, and all that Berkeley has to offer just down the hill!
