About the Listing BMLS-OBOPACU 01 - BMLS-R01867911
Could this be THE ONE? At Dwell on Fairview, it is. This 2026-built sustainable, all-electric (BESO exempt) solar home is the collection’s final offering and its only fully detached home, representing a rare new construction opportunity in South Berkeley. The space-efficient, light-filled 1,672 sq ft floorplan offers 3 beds, 2.5 baths, plus an office space and loft sitting area. The main level features a soaring great room with 25-ft vaulted ceilings, polished concrete floors, and custom wood treatments AND a primary suite on the main living level! A 16-ft folding door system creates an indoor/outdoor seamless transition to a private hardwood deck and gardens. The kitchen serves as the centerpiece with an 8-ft quartz island and built-in white oak dining table, Belgian white oak cabinetry, professional-grade induction cooking and a dedicated pantry area. The primary suite offers long-term flexibility, featuring direct patio access, a dual-sink vanity and 2 closets including a walk in. Upstairs, two bedrooms with wood flooring share a full bath and the loft/office area. Outdoor living centers on a Cumaru and Ipe hardwood deck surrounded by Japanese Maples and privacy plantings in teak planters. Includes solar, 5-zone HVAC (yes, AC), and EV charging. The exterior palette incorporates recycled-content TruExterior siding alongside ACRE by Modern Mill’s innovative tree-free (rice hull) composite, selected for sustainability, durability, and low-maintenance living. Created by a local husband-and-wife team who personally crafted the custom wood treatments throughout. Positioned at the rear of the enclave for extra quiet and security, the home is minutes from Ashby BART, the UC Berkeley campus, Berkeley Bowl and Whole Foods. A 91 Walk Score and 96 Bike Score places the best of Berkeley, Elmwood, and Rockridge at your doorstep. Don’t miss out!
