Acclaimed architect and sculptor Stefan Novak recognized the amazing potential in what was once an unassuming Berkeley lumberyard. He used the former workshop as his studio for decades and transformed the home into a Mid-century modern masterpiece, influenced by the industrial uses of the property’s previous life.
You will be captivated by the craftsmanship, thoughtfulness of functionality, and design that can only be found in a talented architect’s personal home.
Hidden storage abounds in almost every nook and cranny. No detail was overlooked in making this a truly unique property. Varying ceiling heights add light and architectural interest to every room, while exposed beams add an industrial flair to the space.
The lower level features a sophisticated living room with fireplace, cozy office, kitchen and dining areas. A small half bath, affectionately called “the boat bathroom” is located just off of the main entry.
The upper level features two bedrooms, both with gorgeous, original built-ins. One bedroom also includes an adjoining office, sunroom, and attached balcony. A well-appointed full bath and laundry area complete the second level.
The home has been impeccably cared-for and kept true to its original design.
Zoned R-2, this former lumberyard is graced with an unusually spacious lot for the neighborhood. This massive space is perfect for gardening, entertaining, and offers excellent potential for an owner with imagination.
The property feels secluded and peaceful due to its location across the street from a park. However, it conveniently sits right in the heart of Berkeley.
Located across from the verdant Strawberry Creek Park, which features picnic areas and basketball, tennis, and volleyball courts. Just one half-mile from North Berkeley BART, the convenient access to the Fourth Street Shopping District, Downtown Berkeley, and Ohlone Dog Park makes life easy.
The neighborhood, known as Poet’s Corner, is known for its artsy vibe and is conveniently located just minutes from restaurants, shops, and public transit.
