About This Home

This home blends the best of 2000 construction with old world–inspired charm, set on a quiet, no-through-traffic street. Thoughtfully designed, it offers exceptional versatility, privacy, and high-end finishes throughout. A welcoming wraparound front porch and custom leaded glass entry door set the tone. The main level features hardwood floors, open living and dining spaces with floor-to-ceiling display cabinetry, and a den with glass pocket doors and a custom Ann Sacks fireplace hearth. True main-level living includes a primary suite, laundry room, and minimal-step access from the oversized garage. The kitchen offers abundant cabinetry and pantry space, slab granite countertops, high-end stainless appliances, and a concealed DishDrawer dishwasher. The primary suite is a private retreat with a screened porch, spacious walk-in closet, and bath featuring Pratt + Larson tile, heated floors, double vanity, and walk-in shower. A laundry chute connects directly to the main-level laundry room. Upstairs offers expansive living spaces, including a large media/playroom, office with territorial and OHSU views, an additional bedroom with full spa bath, and a beautifully finished suite with separate entrance for flexible use. The lower level, with interior and exterior access, provides additional private living space with a bedroom, full bath, kitchenette, and rec area—ideal for guests, extended living, or quiet retreat. Designed for flexibility, these spaces can live independently or seamlessly integrate into the home, with potential for income-producing use as well. Additional highlights include whole-home ethernet, integrated interior/exterior speakers, security system with Ring doorbells, and professionally designed, low-maintenance landscaping for privacy. Generous, usable space throughout—even the upper hallway offers room to live, work, or create. Minutes to Berkeley Park and close to Duniway. Truly one-of-a-kind. [Home Energy Score = 3.
