A rare opportunity to restore a beloved Berkeley Hills home that has remained in the same family since 1940. Built in 1938, this 3 BD 2+ BA sits on a generous 6,750 SF upslope lot in one of Berkeley's most desirable neighborhoods, offering Bay views, character and exceptional potential. Inside, you'll find surprisingly level floors and beautiful original random-plank hardwood flooring, along with touches of its Art Deco heritage. The interior has been well cared for, making it easy to appreciate the home's solid bones and envision its next chapter. A functioning elevator provides access from the garage to both living levels—an uncommon feature that offers convenience and long-term flexibility. It's easy to imagine opening the kitchen, dining, and living spaces to better capture the partial Bay views and create the kind of light-filled great room so many seek. Just a few doors away is beloved Remillard Park, with lawns and dramatic rock outcroppings and is popular with climbers, children and dogs. It is one of Berkeley Hills' hidden gems. The home is livable and benefits from a recently redone roof but is being sold in its present condition and will require significant updating, including foundation work and replacement of older systems. The front stairs and garage need repair, offering the next owner the opportunity to comprehensively restore and modernize this special fixer. With its generous lot, original character, random-plank floors, working elevator, partial Bay views, and outstanding location near Remillard Park and North Berkeley amenities, this is a rare chance to create an exceptional home in one of Berkeley's most treasured neighborhoods.

$3,800,000

Set on a beautifully landscaped property in the heart of Piedmont, 110 Somerset Road is an exceptional art deco residence offering panoramic views of the San Francisco Bay, the Bay Bridge, the city skyline, and the Golden Gate from each level of the home. A central circular brick courtyard with a bubbling fountain leads to a curved entry portico befitting the original architecture and sets the tone. An oversized custom front door opens into a double-height entry foyer where a gently curved ceiling envelops the space and draws the scale inward, creating a sense of warmth and proportion. At 4,787 square feet across three floors, the main level holds light-filled entertaining rooms in a logical and flowing sequence, while the bedrooms remain private and serene. The formal living room and dining room connect to a family room lit from above by three skylights, where oversized Fleetwood doors dissolve the boundary between interior and the panoramic Bay beyond. The gourmet kitchen has a walk-in double pantry, an oversized island with bar seating, an eat-in breakfast nook, plentiful storage, an ice maker, and refrigerated drawers, ensuring every culinary ambition is fully supported. The adjacent media room offers a quiet cozy counterpoint. A private bedroom with a full bath on the main level provides flexibility for multigenerational households. Upstairs, the primary suite occupies the finest position on the property: a generous room with its own private view patio, a dedicated dressing room with wall-to-wall closets, and an en-suite bath finished in marble with art deco accents. Two additional bedrooms with access to a connecting balcony, a hallway bath, and a private study complete the upper level. The lower level is anchored by a game room with pool table, built-in wet bar, and direct access to an expansive brick patio facing the Bay and gardens. The brick patio, the jasmine arbor at dusk, and the level lawn and lounge below each offer a distinct outdoor experience with the Bay in view. A large en-suite bedroom, laundry, workshop, storage, and a two-car garage complete this level. A home of this architectural distinction, scale, and setting with full access to Piedmont schools, services and the new community pool is a truly rare opportunity.
