1994 Marin is a secret paradise. Tucked behind a lovely but unassuming gate, discover a private courtyard, with mature vines and hardscaped patio. The home, a classic Berkeley Traditional, is stately, welcoming you into an entryway bifurcated by a grand staircase leading up, and hallway pointing directly to the large deck and verdant yard. Hardwood floors throughout, find the living room to the right; the office to the left; a designer bathroom on this level, as well as a little, plum-colored nook under the stairs for coats and shoes. The dining room sits under a wall of windows, beside a brand new, open kitchen that enjoys full view of the backyard. And that backyard is really the piece-de-resistance; a huge deck directly off the eating area, with stairs down to another level of deck overlooking the expansive garden. Upstairs, find four bedrooms, each distinct in their style; a large, designer bathroom; and the primary room which enjoys a walk-in closet and gorgeous sunroom. The location of 1994 Marin is perfectly sited with prime access to North Berkeley, Thousand Oaks and Northbrae. | Home energy score of 5.
