  Wonderful tree house in Claremont hills!

Tucked on a quiet cul-de-sac in the coveted Claremont Hills, this reimagined modern “treehouse” offers a rare sense of tranquility surrounded by soaring redwoods, canyon vistas, and the calming beauty of nature—just minutes from the best of Berkeley and Oakland. Thoughtfully redesigned from the inside out, the home blends warm modern style with an organic, relaxed feel inspired by its woodsy setting. The main level unfolds as a bright, open living space where walls of glass, curated finishes, and natural textures create a seamless connection to the outdoors. A beautifully remodeled kitchen anchors the home, while a newly built deck floats among the trees, creating an effortless indoor-outdoor lifestyle. The spa-inspired main bath features a deep soaking tub and serene, retreat-like ambiance. Upstairs, a private bedroom and sunlit roof deck offer the perfect setting for a home office, creative studio, or peaceful primary retreat. The lower level includes laundry, generous storage, and two tranquil en suite bedrooms, each opening to its own private balcony nestled in the redwoods. At the end of the street, enjoy direct access to beloved Garber Park Nature Reserve, where winding trails, streams, and frequent deer sightings make everyday walks feel worlds away. Moments from Elmwood, College Avenue, and Rockridge BART, this is a rare opportunity to experience elevated hillside living in one of the East Bay’s most sought-after neighborhoods.
