7 Greenwood Cmn, Berkeley, CA 94708

About this single-family home

This pedigree Wurster property with Modernist proportions showcases dramatic views of the Bay Bridge, San Francisco, Golden Gate Bridge, Mount Tamalpais. The Mid-Century home was reimagined by William Wurster in 1957, absorbing the original 1922 Spanish Style home into his greater vision of a Modernist enclave in the Berkeley Hills that became Greenwood Common. Stunning walls of glass take in breathtaking views from most rooms. This kitchen was designed later by Gary Earl Parsons to compliment the minimalist modern structure and to expand the dining room where the original small kitchen once stood. The main workspace continues the exploration of modernist proportions and creates a tall bright box in balance with the living and dining rooms. The ideal proportions of the space are achieved by housing most of the storage and additional workspace in the long adjoining pantry. As a compliment to its Modernist architecture, the home’s interior color palette is an homage to the Dutch painter and Modernist Piet Mondrian. A large deck off the dining room wraps around the side of the house to the patio and gardens. Level yard areas are abundant. The Halprin designed landscaping includs decks, patio, the carport and gardens. The wisteria is spectacular in full bloom.
