About 1221 Grizzly Peak Blvd
This Berkeley Hills gem on iconic Grizzly Peak Boulevard, offering sweeping, unobstructed views of the San Francisco skyline, Golden Gate and Bay Bridges, and Bay, from nearly every room, is as smart as it is beautiful. A modern, classic brown shingle exterior blends timeless character with thoughtful upgrades and a strong connection to the surrounding landscape. The light-filled interior features hardwood floors, expansive windows, and a striking wooden staircase topped by a lantern skylight. The primary suite includes a private view balcony, while the bedroom-level laundry adds modern ease. Multiple outdoor spaces including Trex decking, a kitchen-side patio, and a private side yard from a second ensuite bedroom create easy indoor outdoor living. Extensively improved for resilience and efficiency, the home includes significant seismic upgrades with a moment frame, 27 solar panels, Tesla Powerwall, mini-split heat pumps, EV charger, and Zone Zero compliance. With a Home Energy Score of 10, this is a rare blend of Berkeley charm and high-tech peace of mind. A two car attached garage plus off street parking for two adds rare convenience. Ideally located near Tilden Park, the UC Botanical Garden, and just minutes to UC Berkeley and North Berkeley amenities.
