About this home
Set in Berkeley’s beloved Poets Corner, this immaculate Scandinavian-inspired modern home is a rare convergence of extraordinary design, effortless livability, and one of the city’s most cherished neighborhoods. From the moment you enter, the home feels expansive, calm, and beautifully considered. Soaring 11-foot ceilings and abundant natural light give the approximately 1,412-square-foot interior a remarkable sense of volume, while warm wood tones, clean architectural lines, and thoughtfully selected finishes create an atmosphere that is both striking and deeply inviting. At the heart of the home is a beautifully designed kitchen featuring custom wood cabinetry, sleek quartz countertops, open shelving, sculptural lighting, and a dramatic Heath tiled backsplash. The adjoining living and dining spaces unfold toward an expansive glass door, dissolving the boundary between indoors and out and creating the kind of seamless connection to the garden that defines the very best of California living. The floor plan delivers everything buyers hope to find: three bedrooms, two beautifully finished baths, generous open living space, and a serene primary suite. Beyond the main house, a detached studio offers the ideal setting for a home office, creative space, gym, or quiet retreat. Every inch feels intentional. Every finish feels cohesive. And everything—from the modern heat-pump system to the exceptional indoor-outdoor flow—has been designed to make daily life feel simpler, more comfortable, and considerably more beautiful. All of this just moments from Strawberry Creek Park, neighborhood cafés, markets, and community destinations that make this pocket of Berkeley so special. Immaculate, efficient, and unlike anything else on the Berkeley market—this is the rare home that truly checks every box, then adds a few you didn’t know you needed. HES 10....
