Built in 1911

With a magical park-like setting near the pinnacle of the lushly verdant Berkeley Hills, this one-of-a-kind architectural masterpiece- "Temple of Wings"- combines the most beautiful elements of classical Greek and Roman architecture. The dramatic facade is highlighted by a series of 16 soaring Corinthian columns beautifully spaced to provide a spectacular flow between the grand entertaining pavilion and surrounding gardens. A hedge-lined cobblestone driveway with classical Parisian-style lamp posts provides a charming approach to this exquisite estate framed by the lush greenery and lawns in front with the towering trees in the back providing a majestic backdrop. Divided into North and South wings, this stunning home enjoys unparalleled views of the Bay Area's world-renowned landmarks- from the San Francisco and Oakland Skylines, as well as the sparkling waters of the Bay - to the Golden Gate and Bay Bridges and beyond. Sliding glass doors surrounding the living spaces provide a wonderful indoor/ outdoor flow for a casual contemporary lifestyle as well as for grand-scale entertaining. Designed in 1911 by the legendary starchitect Bernard Maybeck, this timeless residence has been thoughtfully updated to harmonize with 21st-Century living...
