This is the unicorn. It has been waiting for you.
Perched in the Berkeley Hills and fronting directly onto Tilden Regional Park, 1328 Summit Road is a fully reimagined 4 bedroom, 3 bath sanctuary where indoor and outdoor living dissolve into one, plus an additional one bedroom, one bathroom ADU. Approximately 2,698 square feet* of intentional architecture opens to unobstructed, panoramic views from nearly every room of the Bay, San Francisco skyline, and all three bridges: Golden Gate, Bay, and Richmond.
Arrival begins in a private, walled garden softened by drought-tolerant landscaping and built-in mahogany seating, setting a tone of calm and quiet confidence. Inside, Scandinavian-inspired interiors unfold through soft architectural curves, engineered hardwood floors, and light that pours through oversized windows at every turn. The heart of the home is an open living, dining, and kitchen space anchored by white oak cabinetry, a walk-in pantry with floating shelving, an induction cooktop, and a wet bar finished in terrazzo. A flexible front room with double pocket doors and a designer Swedish wallpaper feature functions beautifully as either a home office or bedroom. A beautifully appointed guest bath sits alongside a serene bedroom, color-drenched in soft blue from ceiling to floor, creating an immersive sense of calm. Exceptional finishes throughout, all on one level for effortless single-level living.
Below, the home reveals its most indulgent spaces. Two primary suites sit side by side, each with walk-in closets, exposed ceiling beams, and oversized sliding glass doors opening to a shared view deck. Between them, a flex lounge anchored by a statement glass block wall invites quiet afternoons as a library, media room, or reading nook. The spa-inspired primary bath is the home’s signature moment, where artisan kiln-fired clay tile flows seamlessly from inside to a private, mahogany enclosed outdoor soaking tub and shower. It is a true indoor-outdoor experience, the kind rarely found at this scale or caliber. A moody, beautifully outfitted laundry room rounds out the level, with custom built-ins that bring ease and intention to the everyday.
For long-term flexibility and income potential, a fully permitted one-bedroom, one-bath ADU lives independently with its own private entrance. It shares the same unparalleled views of the Bay and all three bridges, with a full kitchen, a living area anchored by a built-in reading nook, and access to a covered lower deck. Ideal for an au pair, extended family, or rental income**, it mirrors the design integrity of the main home throughout.
Outside, terraced grounds cascade down the hillside, connected by redwood stairs and designed as a series of open-air rooms. Multiple decks, a built-in grill area, and garden paths framed by drought-resistant landscaping create spaces for everything from quiet mornings to sunset gatherings, with rolling hills and glowing skies as the backdrop.
Beneath the beauty sits serious infrastructure. A new metal roof, new windows, updated electrical and plumbing, new HVAC, new sewer lateral, and carefully curated defensible space make this home as thoughtfully protected as it is strikingly beautiful. Fully electric and EV-ready, with a two-car garage and only one direct neighbor, 1328 Summit Road is a rare convergence of architectural clarity, privacy, and immediate access to nature.

Why the Berkeley Hills?
Perched above the bay with sweeping views that stretch from the Golden Gate to the Bay Bridge, the Berkeley Hills offer one of the most distinctive living experiences in Northern California. This is a neighborhood where winding tree-lined streets, architecturally significant homes, and a deep sense of community converge with some of the most spectacular natural surroundings the East Bay has to offer.
Nature at Your Doorstep
Life in the Berkeley Hills means waking up to fog drifting through eucalyptus and bay laurel, with miles of trails just steps from home. Tilden Regional Park crowns the ridgeline, offering over 2,000 acres of hiking, the historic Little Farm where kids can feed goats, Lake Anza for summer swims, and a beloved vintage carousel. Closer in, the terraced Berkeley Rose Garden bursts with thousands of blooms framing panoramic bay views, while Codornices Park hides its famous concrete slide and creek-side stone bridges. Wildcat Canyon, Indian Rock, and Grizzly Peak Boulevard's lookouts are all part of daily life here.
A Storied Culinary Scene
Just down the hill, the Gourmet Ghetto on Shattuck Avenue remains the birthplace of California cuisine. Chez Panisse, Cheese Board Collective's worker-owned pizzeria, Grégoire's legendary potato puffs, Saul's Deli, and Luca Cucina Italiana are all a short drive or walk away. The Thursday North Berkeley Farmers' Market and Monterey Market keep kitchens stocked with the region's best produce, bread, and cheese.
Shops, Culture, and Neighborhood Life
Solano Avenue and the Elmwood district deliver indie bookstores, neighborhood boutiques, climbing gyms, and curated wine shops. Live Oak Park hosts summer Shakespeare performances and community festivals, while UC Berkeley's lectures, concerts, and museums sit minutes away.
Connected, Yet Tucked Away
Despite the secluded, woodsy feel, the Berkeley Hills are remarkably well connected. BART stations, AC Transit routes, and quick access to Highways 24 and 13 mean downtown Oakland, San Francisco, and the broader Bay Area are all within easy reach.
For those who want quiet streets, breathtaking views, intellectual energy, and world-class food and culture in equal measure, the Berkeley Hills are hard to match.
