About 2816 Derby St
This historic residence, designed by famed architect Julia Morgan, showcases timeless California craftsmanship. The four-bedroom, three-and-a-half-bath brown-shingle home is among Morgan's earliest works, retaining its original form and detail. The front porch, crowned by an oversized arched door, leads into a grand entryway that flows into a sophisticated living room with a cozy fireplace. This space connects to a formal dining room, where another fireplace and large doors open to a spacious deck. A well-appointed butler's pantry links the dining room to the kitchen and a conveniently located half bath. Off the entryway, a refined study offers a quiet retreat. Upstairs, the primary bedroom is accompanied by a hall bathroom, three additional bedrooms (two with ensuite baths), and a sunroom with access to the lower level, where laundry facilities and office space are found. The tranquil garden, shared brick driveway, and fully finished garage add to the home's charm. Located in the coveted Berkeley school district, this property is moments from UC Berkeley, the Claremont Hotel Club & Spa, and the Berkeley Tennis Club.
