Built in 1948, 12 Panoramic Way features one- and two-bedroom units, averaging 670 square feet. As the property has been owned by the same family for 40 years, Valiance will undergo a value-add business plan that improves the quality and amenities of the entire property.

 

Located on the hillside overlooking the Southside District, the property is just a five-minute walk to campus, one block from Greek life, half a block from Memorial Football Stadium and only an eight-minute walk to The Greek Theatre.

Residents are also within proximity of the hundreds of cafes, quick-serve restaurants, brewpubs, fine-dining restaurants and cocktail lounges within Berkeley.

 

The property is a 25-minute walk from the Berkeley Downtown BART station, providing access to San Francisco, Oakland and Silicon Valley, and there are a total of four transit stations within a block of the community. In addition, the location provides easy highway access and is within close distance to a ferry line from Jack London Square that shuttles passengers to San Francisco.

“Valiance's local presence in Berkeley has enabled them to forge strong industry relationships in the area and subsequently acquire well-located, privately-run student housing communities.

 

"We look forward to watching them implement their business plan and thank Knighthead for another strong closing experience,” said Aelyon.
