Built in 1922, the 3++BD, 2.5BA home spans 2,454 sq ft on a generous 7,500 sq ft lot stretching from Thousand Oaks Blvd to San Fernando Ave. The detached garage off San Fernando, allows an almost level-in entrance through the kitchen and ADU potential. The thoughtful layout offers spacious, sun-filled rooms, including a formal living room, library, and a dedicated office. Both the living room and kitchen open directly to the gracious backyard. The custom kitchen—with details like built-in seating and handcrafted cherry cabinets—anchors the home with charm and function. Upstairs, the primary suite features an ensuite bath and glistening Bay views. A second west-facing bedroom also enjoys Bay vistas, while the back bedroom and sunroom feel tucked among the trees. Lush gardens provide a serene retreat for entertaining or quiet reflection. With refined proportions, abundant natural light and seamless indoor-outdoor flow, this home embodies timeless Berkeley elegance just moments from Solano Ave, North Berkeley shops, and transit, right across from Great Stone Face Park- a Thousand Oaks neighborhood Treasure.

This 1963 Mid-Century Modern home was designed by Bob "Red" Kleyn-Schorel, a cousin of Bernard Maybeck's daughter-in-law. The design throughout pays homage to Maybeck's brilliance, featuring high ceilings, wood exteriors, Craftsman elements, and a perfect siting on a verdant hill, creating a beautiful intersection of nature. Upon arrival, you notice the beautiful wood detailing of the grand front door, expansive front porch, and the symmetrical roofline. The home captures Maybeck's belief that "hillside architecture is landscape gardening around a few rooms in case of rain." This home boasts green, beguiling vistas from nearly every room. You feel enveloped by nature, as it captures the very essence of Maybeck's intent: beauty. The bedrooms are large and inviting. Built-in bookshelves, a grand fireplace, and the enormous open space make the home feel truly extraordinary. Upgraded bathrooms retain a connection to the outdoors, evoking a spa-like ambiance. There is ample storage, and the garden runs all the way to the street below. The view of the campus, bay, and flickering lights creates a calm, peaceful ambiance. The quiet cul-de-sac has no through traffic. 5 Maybeck Twin Drive, a street named playfully after Maybeck's twin granddaughters, is a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity.
