Property Description

A true jewel of Berkeley architecture in the heart of the coveted Elmwood neighborhood, the Sedgwick House is one of the finest and best-preserved Victorian residences in the area. Rich in historic character and timeless elegance, this exquisite home blends classic Victorian grandeur with subtle Edwardian influences, showcasing soaring ceilings, exquisite original detailing, and beautifully proportioned rooms filled with natural light. A gracious front porch welcomes you into the tall entry leading to elegant living and dining rooms, a charming library and sitting room and three spacious bedrooms. The remodeled eat-in kitchen features custom cabinetry, a professional chef’s range, and lovely garden views from the breakfast nook. Upstairs beneath the eaves, a cozy family room accompanies a spacious primary retreat with walk-in closet and luxurious bath, plus an additional flexible bedroom and expansive attic offering remarkable storage or future potential. Meticulously updated with newer foundation, plumbing, and electrical systems. The professionally landscaped backyard is a serene, private sanctuary with multiple entertaining terraces and lush mature plantings. Ideally located close to Elmwood shops and restaurants, the Berkeley Playhouse, Claremont Canyon trails, running track, and UC Berkeley. BESO SCORE 1
