About 10 Atlas Place
Welcome Home
This exceptional two-level home at 10 Atlas Place in the Berkeley Hills is a unique mid-century showcase with spectacular bay, city and bridge views, and Tilden Park trails out the front door. Remodeled by famed architect John Hans Ostwald, this 4-bedroom and 3-bath property features Ostwald’s hallmark mix of woodsy and modern design. The pool, cabana, large garden, decks that run the length of the house, wine cellar, and wet bars make this home both an ideal retreat and perfect for entertaining.

Features & Updates
From your easy drive into the Berkeley Hills along tree-lined streets to the moment you step into 10 Atlas Place’s entryway – an enclosed sky-lit, redwood atrium – you know you’re somewhere special. The indoor/outdoor koi pond is a peaceful welcome as you open the large double-door entry to a living/dining room with fireplace and sweeping bay views. Imagine sipping your morning coffee or evening cocktail on the deck. The open floor plan is accented by the cathedral ceiling with exposed stained wood beams. And a spiral staircase leads to the lower level.
