Description

Rare opportunity to own a historic hillside property just moments from the vibrant Elmwood District, College Avenue and Cal Berkeley, and just above the renowned Claremont Resort and Club.

The main home features 4 bedrooms and 2.5 baths across the first two levels. Spacious living areas include a grand living room with an expansive picture window framing magnificent outlooks, a formal dining room, and an additional sitting room ideal for flexible living.

Set on a beautiful 11, 000+ lot, the home is uniquely accessed via a private tram, offering both convenience and a distinctive architectural experience. With easy ride-share access and a premier East Bay hillside location, this is a stunning and truly special property. Two Car Carport.
