Magnificent Historic Creekside Home in Berkeley’s prestigious Claremont Neighborhood! Welcome to 1 Brookside Avenue, a grand retreat built in 1912, nestled along a winding creek on a cul de sac just off Claremont Ave. This architecturally distinguished residence, designed by H. Osborn, resembles a Parisian Townhome, and is featured on the Berkeley Architectural Heritage Tour. With 4+ Br, 3 full & 2 half baths and awash in natural light, this home offers elegant and comfortable living. Beautiful details throughout include high ceilings, and fireplaces in both living room & primary suite. The formal dining room and kitchen w/ sunny breakfast room opens to a lovely sun-porch where a footbridge leads to the secluded backyard, providing an ideal setting both for entertaining & relaxing. The flexible floorplan easily allows for a home office, family room, studio, & even a 4th Br for possible au-pair set up. The neighborhood was built as a residential park, with romantic footbridges spanning the creek - a haven of old world charm just down the street from the world famous Claremont Hotel and Spa, and vibrant College Avenue & Elwood districts. Offering an unparalleled blend of grandeur & modern convenience, this home is ideal for the discerning buyer seeking something truly special.
