Built in 2022 on Berkeley's coveted Maybeck Twin Drive, this incomparable 4+BD, 4BA, 3623 SQFT home with a full-service apartment is a modern interpretation of the neighborhood's storied architectural heritage. Designed by Goring & Straja Architects, engineered for the hillside by soils engineer Alan Kropp and seismic specialist AJ Miller, this is serious California modern design built in the spirit of Bernard Maybeck's own principles: let the topography dictate the house, honor light, and always keep the eye moving between inside and outside. The result feels like it grew from the hill itself. A covered wraparound terrace and patio atrium invite you to sit and take in the Bay with the occasional chime of UC Berkeley's Campanile wafting in from across the canyon. Inside, the open floor plan is anchored by a central fireplace and vaulted ceilings, with glass accordion doors folding completely open to a balcony with Bay views, constructed using Maybeck design principals. Entertain in the dining area, cook in the chef's kitchen with high-end appliances and marble countertops, or settle into the living room with the Bay as your backdrop. Hidden Bluetooth speakers, French doors to the backyard, and a generous family room with balcony access make the main level feel expansive and alive
