What's around 1427 Summit Road

About this property

Your escape to the serene Berkeley Hills awaits! Originally constructed circa 1949 and enlarged soon thereafter, this Mid-Century beauty offers up 5 bedrooms (or 4 plus a Family Room) on 2 levels to provide the perfect separations of space. The capacious living/dining room is outfitted with views of the South Bay, built-in bookshelves and window seats, and access to the dining deck. New countertops and backsplashes as well as new stainless steel appliances bring the kitchen up to modern standards. The upstairs bathroom's custom tile shower surround lends an air of spa-like luxury. On this floor, one bedroom overlooks the verdant front patio while the second has a door leading out to the sun-drenched rear deck. Downstairs, the largest room, which once functioned as the home's primary bedroom with double the closet space is currently furnished as a Family Room ready for movie watching or game night. The smaller bedroom works beautifully as a home office or nursery (and was once a potting studio including a potter's kiln!), while the fifth bedroom space overlooks the rear garden. The property is just steps away from a trailhead for Tilden Park. Perhaps the piece de resistance is the separate vacant lot next door for which the new homeowners will have first right of refusal. How could one resist? BESO Home Energy Score of 2.

Buyer's review

Wonderful experience purchasing a home

Patricia is a wonderful real estate agent. She was very responsive and understanding throughout the whole journey, including when times got very frustrating and disappointing. She was knowledgeable of the market and helped us understand reasonable purchase prices and expectations. She also listened very closely to what we wanted and continued to find appropriate homes for us within our budget. She provided feedback and advise, and continued to help us in detailed ways even through escrow. She helped us beat out 3 other offers on the home we own today. I'd recommend Patricia to friends and colleagues in the future.
