Property Description

Rarely does a Berkeley home come to market with the architectural significance and pedigree as this one. Built in 1908, this elegant, historically important home was part of the original Henry W. Taylor 40-room mansion, most of which was torn down for redevelopment and subdivision in the 1930s. Situated at the end of a long driveway that culminates in a brick courtyard that once served as a destination for livery drivers, 305 The Uplands is the last of the original mansion, re-imagined into an expansive, beautiful home over 3 spacious levels. Once the estate’s ballroom on the main level and the livery/stables below, this distinctive home now offers 4+BR, 3 full and 2 half BA, a family room, media room, laundry/mud room, and 2-car attached garage. The original stables on the lower level offer 800+ SF of conversion potential into an ADU, office/workshop/studio, home fitness area or a generous space for multi-generational living.The expansive 400-SF media room is an entertainer’s dream! Beautifully curated terraced gardens and patios make this already special home all the more wonderful. Just steps to everything that Claremont, Rockridge and Elmwood have to offer. This remarkable home offers an extraordinary ownership opportunity for the next steward of this Berkeley treasure.
