Elegant Rockridge Designer Home Near UC Berkeley

Welcome to our elegant, newly renovated 2BR/3BA designer home by Gary Parsons, just minutes from UC Berkeley in Oakland’s charming Rockridge neighborhood.

Spanning two beautifully renovated levels, the home offers a refined balance of comfort, style, and livability, making it an ideal place to settle in for a weekend visit or a longer stay. It is especially well suited for family visits, Berkeley stays, and time spent exploring the East Bay. The living room features a luxury American Leather queen sofa bed, known for its exceptional comfort, along with a nearby full bathroom for added flexibility and convenience.

The kitchen is fully equipped with high-end appliances, including a six-burner gas stove, and thoughtfully stocked for cooking, dining, and entertaining, with service for up to 10 guests. Just off the kitchen, the dining area opens to a small south-facing deck with a barbecue and fire pit, creating an easy indoor-outdoor flow for shared meals, morning coffee, or relaxing at the end of the day. Abundant natural light fills both levels during the day, while sophisticated dimmable lighting creates a warm, inviting atmosphere in the evening.

The neighborhood offers the charm, convenience, and walkability that make Rockridge such a favorite place to stay, with excellent restaurants, cafés, markets, bookstores, boutiques, fitness studios, and spas all nearby. The home includes one guaranteed driveway parking space for guests, and BART and other nearby transit make it easy to explore Berkeley, Oakland, and San Francisco.

Whether you’re spending time with family, friends, or simply looking for a stylish and welcoming home base in the East Bay, this home offers a comfortable place to settle in and enjoy the neighborhood.
