717 Hilldale Ave, Berkeley, CA 94708

About this single-family home

This elegant Tudor style home, originally built in 1924, was extensively renovated and updated in 2006 with beautifully executed system upgrades throughout. The gracious living room features dramatic cathedral ceilings, stone fireplace, and beautiful light pouring through the multi-paned windows. French doors open onto the front porch balcony. Indoor/outdoor living is further enhanced by the formal dining room French doors, as well as the rear door to the glorious back garden and patio. Three bedrooms and two baths—all on the main level—make for an easy flow. The chef’s kitchen features stainless steel appliances, and gorgeous multi-paned corner windows looking onto the western bay view. The primary suite has a walk-in closet, multi-paned windows overlooking the private garden, and an ensuite bath with double sinks, towel warmer and separate WC. Downstairs is an office or family room with a private entrance and large storage closet. The attached 2-car garage with 50-amp charger has interior access. While tucked into the quiet and beautiful Berkeley hills neighborhood, 717 Hilldale is still easily convenient to shops and restaurants. Chez Panisse, the Cheeseboard, Solano Avenue and the University of California campus are all just minutes away. Beautifully maintained.
