Mid-Century fixer! This peaceful retreat in the Berkeley Hills was originally designed over half a century ago by Betty Saarni and her first husband - it was her home and joy until passing in 2023. A prolific and talented painter, one can see where she drew her inspiration from. Vaulted ceilings, clean lines and large windows beckon the verdant setting in. 2 original fireplaces keep winter evenings cozy and 2 sets of French doors to the deck welcome birdsong from the surrounding sun dappled maples and redwoods. Tucked away from the street on the driveway where Betty would back down her classic Karmann Ghia like a pro, you'll find the main house that lives all on one level. A partial unfinished basement/workshop, an additional room with separate entrance and legal height ceilings on lower level could easily be integrated for more living space. This lil' piece of history, this special home is ready for its new owner and vision!
