Property Description

Carr Jones was an icon of Storybook architecture and this 1932 work is a masterful example, with its sunny courtyard and undulating brickwork and roof shingles. The front door opens to a mosaic of artfully laid tile and a fanciful fountain. The living room captures Bay views through a colossal peaked window and flaunts an intricate cathedral ceiling and grand fireplace. Other details, such as whimsical art-tiles, doors with hand-carved images of imagined voyages and a clever owl set to guard the hall are not to be missed. Three official bedrooms plus a ton of bonus space! Public records list 3126 square feet, but check out the giant lower level. Award-winning seismic retrofit. Situated in the best North Berkeley neighborhood, this home is sited high enough to enjoy the views, but still near the UC campus, the Rose Garden, Codornices Park, La Loma Park, restaurants, and public transportation lines.  Welcome to the sweet spot!
