This tranquil, private single-level 3 bed/2 bath retreat is only a 10-minute drive from Berkeley shops, but a world away. Flanked by redwood, oak, pine and madrone trees with a view across Tilden Park, you see hawks soaring and hear owls at night. A gracious living room with lovely views, formal dining room and bonus/den space with skylight, make this home an entertainer’s delight. The layout offers separation of space and a great indoor/outdoor flow with lush tree or hill scenery from nearly every window. Recent improvements include new roof, new flooring, upgraded electrical, interior and exterior painting, and new oven and cooktop. Outdoor spaces on all sides of the house offer relaxation or play. A private driveway, attached two-car garage, and a flexible shed for storage, or as a potential office, make this easy living. Nearby to parks, hiking trails, Tilden Park amenities, and a quick drive to Berkeley's and Kensington’s best dining and shopping. This is it: Your forever home perched on the hill with both nature and city close within reach. Views: Ridge
