House buy in Kensington California

862 Euclid Ave is a gorgeous Bauhaus style mid-century modern home, designed by acclaimed designer JH Ostwald. Perched atop Cragmont Hill, designed to embrace natural light and iconic San Francisco Bay views, the home is truly a work of art. The abundance of sunlight plays through the dramatic west-facing wall of windows in the living room and throughout the house. The remarkable two-story window wall at the stairway ushers in the bamboo planted just outside. Oak floors, custom wood paneling, wood framed cabinets, and an open floor plan maintain a sense of warmth and equilibrium. The remodeled kitchen keeps with the clean architectural lines of the original design. It is equipped with a suite of Fisher Paykel appliances, quartz counters, and custom floating shelves. Around the corner, an open dining room adjoins a sunny deck, the perfect setting for a summer dinner. The large connected living room opens onto a west facing deck to take in the views of three bridges. The primary suite was an addition to the original home and brings in sunshine, views and sounds from the waterfall. It boasts a remodeled bathroom with walk-in shower and wall-hung toilet, along with Grohe finishes. The large walk-in closet is simple and functional. The secondary suite was the original primary suite, with windows on the west walls of the bedroom and attached bathroom. The third bedroom and full bathroom adjoin the spacious central sitting room. The backyard is terraced with a large patio and flat grass area, with views on nearly every level. It features a striking custom water feature that emerges from an accent stone, flows through floating concrete steps, and falls over the spillway to the deep bottom reservoir. Centrally located, Cragmont Elementary School is located just a block away and there is easy access to North Berkeley's shops & dining. AC Transit's Line 65 picks up nearby with stops in North and Downtown Berkeley and BART.
