Set on a tranquil, level street just below the summit of the El Cerrito hills, this generously proportioned home radiates mid-century sensibility. Shimmering SF Bay and Golden Gate bridge views — and a dramatic living room designed to take advantage of them — frame a smart floorplan organized around comfort, privacy and the rituals of gathering. The home's mid-century character is beautifully expressed through its proportion, warmth, and individuality. Five generous bedrooms present a wide range of options, while a rare, expansive family room offers up a cozy and casual spot for movie night, creative work, pajama parties, or plain old R&R. Fill the fridge! This is a home where the neighbors will want to gather — a particularly adaptable center of gravity that shifts seamlessly from everyday retreat to lively social setting. A cook’s kitchen provides both scale and utility, supporting serious culinary pursuits and group meals without sacrificing the home’s casual rhythm. Upper and lower decks create effortless indoor-outdoor flow and highlight the expansive views while dining al fresco or enjoying a backyard croquet or badminton match. Rather than prescribing a single lifestyle, this home offers a sequence of interior and exterior spaces with enough dimension and distinction to support an array of activities and family configurations. The gentle hills of El Cerrito are wrapped in Northern California beauty. The balance of residential calm and easy access to the broader Bay Area, combined with numerous nearby parks and endless hiking trails, contribute to a neighborhood scale that rewards both wandering and return. Minutes from home, a cornucopia of urban amenities includes world-class golf and restaurants, two BART stations, award-winning schools and performance venues, and 24/7 bird-watching. This is El Cerrito, and 1009 Havens Place is the architecture that becomes a framework for contemporary life.
