Nestled in the hills of Berkeley, 994 Miller is a gorgeous, level-in 6BD/4BA Mid-Century Modern with amazing Bay views, three en suite bedrooms, multiple home office opportunities, and a separate in-law/guest suite with spacious private patio and the potential to become a studio apartment with kitchenette. This uniquely flexible space suggests a variety of potential configurations - as a single-family home with studio apartment or as three separate living areas, each with direct access to the outdoor space. The large back patio and terraced garden are perfect for intimate alfresco dining or large gatherings of extended family and friends. The home is a short ride from the world-famous restaurants of Berkeley’s Gourmet Ghetto, and just moments from Remillard Park with its children’s playground, picnic tables, beginner-level rock climbing, and beautiful bay views. Also nearby are popular Cragmont and Tilden Parks.
Representative of the elegant yet relaxed style of the mid-century era, the main level features an open common area enhanced by tall picture windows with marvelous treetop and Bay Views. This level also includes an updated eat-in kitchen and gracious primary owner’s suite with oversized picture windows and fantastic Bay Views, as well as two additional bedrooms with a shared bath.
Downstairs, a second living area might serve as a spacious guest suite with living room, large bedroom with home office potential, and an en suite bedroom overlooking the lush, terraced backyard and sparkling Bay beyond. Off the living room, an expansive patio is the perfect place to relax and watch the stars come out over the Bay. This level might also be suited for use as the en suite home office of your dreams with plenty of space for a library and plenty of room to spread out while you indulge your creativity to come up with the next great idea for a tech startup, write your next novel, or run your brick-and-mortar office via zoom.
The lowest level of the home is a true retreat with a separate suite including a full bath that might become an en suite home office or a studio apartment with the addition of a kitchenette. The suite has access to a tranquil private patio surrounded by mature lemon, apple, fig, pear, and orange trees.
A private oasis, the home is surrounded by natural beauty with a lushly landscaped terraced backyard with multi-level patios and a gated front courtyard where an expansive flagstone patio is lined with abundant greenery, including Japanese maple and butterfly trees, flowering shrubs, and a variety of succulents. The best of both worlds, the home rests between the idyllic Tilden Regional Park with its miles of hiking trails and stunning wooded views, and vibrant downtown Berkeley with its independent shops, restaurants, and cafes.
