Own a piece of Berkeley history at 1545 Dwight Way, the city’s oldest Victorian home. Built in 1886 by legendary architect Alphonso Herman Broad, this Stick-Eastlake masterpiece is a landmark of craftsmanship and scale. Spanning an incredible 6,379 square feet, the residence features over 16 bedrooms and 7 bathrooms across a 9,025-square-foot lot. Whether you envision a grand multi-generational estate, a visionary co-housing project, or a unique investment, the possibilities are as vast as the home itself. From the intricate woodwork to the steep gabled roofs, every detail reflects the rich architectural heritage of the historic Spaulding Tract. Currently tenant-occupied and situated just moments from Berkeley’s vibrant dining and culture, this is more than a home—it’s a legacy.
