This one-owner stunning Mid-century home (1958) was lovingly built by the seller's parents, Joe Neilands, a revered bio-chemistry professor at UC Berkeley, and his wife, Juanita. They literally built this house with their own hands. The Neilands were passionate about energy and water conservation, evident by their many eco-friendly upgrades including a Solar Hot Water System (2013), Solar Electric System (2011), Heat pump air conditioner, heat & light reflecting roof, and a beautiful succulent garden with other drought tolerant plants. Add to all this the absolutely phenomenal four bridge view, separate downstairs entrance for the bedroom, study & bathroom, two patios with views, an amazing deck off the living room, and prime Berkeley location to get the uber cool & eco-friendly home that is 185 Hill Road.
