TRANSPARENT PRICE! Behold this 3+ bedroom retreat on The Arlington. Perched atop El Cerrito’s hillside and tucked against the manicured fairways of the Berkeley Country Club, this home feels both stately and serene. Inside, sunset views stretch across the living room, dining room, and kitchen. The main level offers two bedrooms, highlighted by an oversized primary suite with walk-in closet and spa-like bath featuring dual sinks and a jacuzzi tub, plus direct access to a private backyard with hot tub. A permitted upstairs addition easily serves as a third bedroom, office, or guest suite, while the lower-level bonus room invites movie nights, workouts, or a quiet space to work from home—a flexible floor plan that adapts to every need. Beautiful hardwood floors, new carpeting, and thoughtful updates shine throughout. The ground level includes an extra-large two-car garage with workshop space, utility room, laundry, wine cellar, and abundant storage. With a new roof, seismic strengthening, and modernized systems and appliances already in place, this hillside classic is polished, private, and ready for what’s next.
