Property Description
An architectural jewel, this iconic Arts and Crafts-style home designed by Charles K. Sumner in 1910 is on a coveted street in the sought-after Claremont neighborhood of Berkeley. The majestic 3,899 square foot 5++BD/3.5BA house has been impeccably maintained and exquisitely renovated with the utmost care to preserve its historic beauty and accommodate all the essentials for modern living. Every detail of this home radiates integrity, warmth, and grace: luxurious hardwood floors with stylish inlays, an inspiring archway motif throughout, wainscoting, stained glass, custom built-ins, a chef's kitchen, a formal dining room paneled in solid redwood, guest quarters, a gracious porch and covered patio, lush gardens with pathways, redwood shingles, and serene privacy. An uplifting sense of ease and wellbeing unfolds on the lovely brick herringbone walkway to the front door, the fragrance of garden flowers and warm redwood bark delighting the senses.
