In a world of "fast" architecture, this custom 1985 residence by the local builder Berton D. Garey stands as a testament to intentional, master-crafted design. Offered for the first time, this East Bay treasure seamlessly blends Mid-Century and Berkeley Craftsman traditions on a rare, level lot. Inside, the home is a sanctuary of "forest gold" redwood and light. Garey's meticulous hand is visible in every detail, from the massive hand-hewn beams to the whimsical custom ironwork. The open-concept layout flows effortlessly toward a wall of glass framing San Francisco Bay views, while a wood-burning fireplace anchors the living space. The bedroom, partitioned by elegant redwood screens, opens directly to a central patio perfectly sited in its surroundings. Lovingly maintained by its original owners, this one-bedroom retreat is an invitation to become the next steward of a truly irreplaceable handcrafted legacy. BESO Exempt, Berkeley Address, Oakland taxes.
