1140 Arlington Blvd El Cerrito, CA 94530

A Home with Heart, Soul, and a truly magical garden it will take your breath away! Some homes simply feel good the moment you arrive. 1140 Arlington is one of them. Located in the most desirable El Cerrito Hills neighborhood, this warm and gracious home feels wonderfully private and connected at the same time-a peaceful garden retreat just minutes from Berkeley, BART, regional parks, neighborhood shops and restaurants, and the energy of the greater Bay Area. Set on approximately 10,000 sq. ft., the property is surrounded by mature trees, lush plantings, and beautifully established gardens. Approximately 2,755 sq. ft. of living space offers 5 bedrooms, 2½ baths, generous gathering spaces, and a flexible floor plan that easily accommodates family life, guests, entertaining, and working from home. Inside, natural light fills the home and creates an easy flow between formal and casual living spaces. At its heart is a beautifully designed chef's kitchen with a true Commercial DCS range. Custom hardwood cabinetry with enviable upgrades and gorgeous stone countertops. The kitchen opens naturally to the living and dining areas and the garden beyond. Doors to the outdoors make everyday life feel connected to nature-morning coffee in the garden, dinner outside, or friends gathered long into the evening. And what a garden it is. Featured in numerous publications, the lovingly curated grounds feature an expansive lawn, mature specimen trees and plantings, and inviting spaces for gathering. Over the years, this special setting has welcomed music, dinners, charitable events, private Cal gatherings, celebrations, and neighborhood gatherings of up to 200 guests. It is a home that has been genuinely lived in, loved, and shared.
