Description

In a lush setting of japanese maples and bamboo, just moments from monterey market and solano avenue, lies a 3 ++ bedroom home that defies convention and captures the soul. built in 1903 and reimagined in the 1930s by architect carr jones as his personal residence, it is a sculptural sanctuary filled with artistry and atmosphere. though located in one of berkeley’s most vibrant neighborhoods, the grounds feel like a secluded woodland, with natural pathways, dappled light, and the hush of trees. jones’ legacy lives in the details—a tiny cathedral window, hand-hammered ironwork, and a dutch door. skylights flood the open interior with sun, including a dramatic round skylight above the show-stopping kitchen. brilliant blue enameled lava stone countertops and a tree trunk column anchor the space. the primary suite’s near-glass roof invites moonlight in, while whimsical tilework spills from bathroom to bedroom. beyond the main house, a carr jones–crafted cottage charms with mosaic detail throughout. above it, a treehouse-like office perches among the trees, and a separate studio with 220 wiring awaits your next creation. this is a rare and romantic retreat for artists, nature lovers, and dreamers—an unforgettable home filled with light, texture, and soul.
