A house dubbed the “saxophone house” located in the Berkeley Hills is for sale for nearly $2 million.

The 4,000-square-foot property is on Tunnel Road and was built after the 1991 Oakland Hills fire.

Its original owner was an amateur jazz musician and its three stories have a ton of musical details including a golden staircase with treble-clef railings.

Over the weekend, the home was posted on the popular Facebook group Zillow Gone Wild.

NBC Bay Area spoke to the realtor to get the backstory on this home and the attention the property is now getting.

"Really excited about the fact that we got all this attention about the property, so really grateful. It's definitely a very unique home, I think it's more unique once people come in to see the house in person," said realtor Derek Han.

You can see the home for yourself at an open house Thursday night.

The house features an Art Deco facade and large golden towers shaped like a saxophone. It was designed by Ace Architects and built in 1996. The main house sits on 10,000 square feet of property, and includes 4 bedrooms and 3 1/2 baths. There is a guest house with an additional bedroom and bathroom.
