about this home's

Features

This elegant Tudor proudly shows off its vistas of the bay - reaching from beyond Mt. Tam to south of San Francisco - with no wires. Generous spaces inside to spread out when not admiring the views, lovely hardwood floors, period windows, a charming kitchen. A gathering room next to the kitchen opens onto deck covered in roses - space to unwind. Upstairs, two bedrooms, a bath, and an ensuite primary bedroom - yet more vistas. A great room downstairs with a full bath and appliance hookups waiting for definition - and - yes - still more views. Extensive brickwork in both the front and back yard with mature landscaping, including fruit trees (fig, apple, lemon). Barely a block from upper Kensington shops.

Neighborhood Gallery

258 Yale Avenue

Thanks to its proximity to the University of California, Berkeley campus, Kensington may boast the largest number of Nobel Prize winners of any community in the world. But one look at this neighborhood of large homes in the hilly streets above Berkeley, its commanding views of the Bay Area, and sunny terraced yards will explain why this community is one of the most sought after in the East Bay.

Famed architect Bernard Maybeck had a home on Purdue Street. The homes he designed here at the turn of last century have become an informal blueprint for the signature home in Berkeley. These well-proportioned homes are designed for family life and dinner parties. Shingle siding, rustic construction, and bright expansive vistas are the hallmark of the homes in Kensington.

Tilden Park provides the boundary to the east. Miles of biking and hiking trails, a miniature steam train, exhibition farm, merry go-round, and the naturally landscaped swimming hole at Lake Anza make Tilden a popular destination for families.

Transportation via Bay Area Rapid Transit (BART) is convenient. Heading on Colusa Avenue leads to the El Cerrito Plaza BART station and a short drive down Arlington Avenue takes you to North Berkeley BART and North Berkeley's Gourmet Ghetto neighborhood. There are two distinct shopping districts in Kensington.
