Form meets function with a side of fun in this Mediterranean Villa. A Mediterranean lifestyle encourages a slower pace, walking amid your community, meals of fresh local ingredients consumed with friends, and the occasional glass of red wine. Imagine shopping at nearby Monterey Market for fresh produce and sharing large boisterous meals in the open-concept Great room. Serve Sangria with fresh fruit from the garden, and take a siesta on the patio while luxuriating to the sounds of the fountain. All easy to envision in this completely remodeled and expanded (2013) Albany charmer, where dark floors and tall wood-beamed ceilings are softened with creamy cabinetry and travertine tile. Green and blue accents evoke the sea while two oversized green doors with clerestory windows create a fabulous connection to the lush private garden. The grand patio, centered around a serene fountain and flanked by bougainvillea, dahlias, and roses, invites leisurely afternoons and lively gatherings.
Rich colors and textures, archways, balconies, and wrought iron railings create a warm, inviting ambiance. With four spacious bedrooms and well-appointed baths, this residence offers a perfect blend of comfort and style. A large dedicated laundry room and one-car garage add to the ease of daily life.
If “Location x 3” resonates with you - here’s the true trifecta. In the heart of Albany, California, this coveted Terrace Park neighborhood is in the center of three Bay Area hotspots: Northbrae/Westbrae (Monterey Market, Gioia Pizza, Berkeley Hort), Solano Avenue (Akiemi, Vanessa’s, Andronicos), The Gourmet District (Chez Panisse, Cheese Board, Gregoire). Your best of daily life is just a bit of a walk, stroll, or roll along tree-lined sidewalks. It's also very commuter-friendly, near North Berkeley BART and several bus lines. Located within the acclaimed Albany school district and close to a prestigious private high school, this home offers unparalleled educational opportunities.

Terrace Park Neighborhood
Residents of Albany enjoy convenient access to the Bay Bridge with a fraction of the population density found in San Francisco. Located just northwest of Berkeley, Albany’s breadth of entertainment, education, and access makes it one of the absolute best neighborhoods in the entire Bay Area. First, there is Solano Avenue, an amazingly well-kept Bay Area street with all the best amenities. If you’re looking for excellent food, drinks, and entertainment, Albany residents can find it all close to home. If you’re an SF transplant, you’ll feel right at home eating at the award-winning Little Star Pizza. Additionally, Albany is home to one of the best school districts in the Bay Area. Lastly, Albany provides easy access to the rest of the Bay Area. Bordering Berkeley, you’ve got quick access to CAL, and a quick commute to SF via BART and the Transbay Bus. Best of all, you’re along the I-80 corridor, making this neighborhood more accessible to Lake Tahoe without any of the Bay Bridge Traffic and just a quick jaunt to Marin County over the Richmond Bridge.
