This exquisite home was designed by the notable Bay Area modernist Paul Hammarberg, one of the Bay Area’s most successful Mid-century Modern architects. The wall of windows with clerestory vents is a tell-tale feature of Hammarberg designs. Built in 1951, this home is completely level-in with a direct, level-out, connection to over a quarter acre of rambling gardens and offers stunning views of the bay and Golden Gate Bridge. With three bedrooms, two offices, and a family room in the main house, plus a permitted 1-bedroom ADU, this home provides space for everyone. Even better, 1415 Devonshire has been remodeled and meticulously maintained over the years: newer roof + solar panels, furnace, electrical, seismic, tankless water heater, remodeled kitchen, and $0 on the pest report. If you have been looking for an East Bay unicorn with architecture pedigree and fully updated systems, this is your chance. In the best pocket of the El Cerrito Hills and a stone’s throw from Madera Elementary School, Arlington Park, and the Hillside Natural Area.
