About this House

What's unique:Open floor planBack deckPrivate backyardEasy walk
Come live your dream in the heart of the Gourmet Ghetto, an easy walk to many culinary delights...Your new home awaits!

The warmth and charm of this upstairs flat is very cozy while ample light and a sunroom/dining room with an abundance of skylights and an open floor plan keep it feeling light and spacious. The kitchen is a joy to cook and bake in. And the back deck makes a lovely outdoor breakfast space amongst the redwoods, leading to a private backyard with plenty of light and space for a small container garden (we've grown tomatoes, eggplant, and peppers here for the past several years). This is also a grand space to dine and entertain in (gas barbecue and firepit included).
**Of particular note is the 8'x12' fully framed and roofed Garden Room which would work well as an office, therapy space, or meditation room.**

This home is ideal for a professional couple or small family (or both!):
A few short steps from the original Peet's Coffee and Walnut Square
Two blocks from Chez Panisse, The Cheeseboard, Saul's Deli, Live Oak Park, 2 supermarkets and the Thursday Farmer's Market
Six blocks to the UC Berkeley campus, Theater Row, BART, and downtown Berkeley.

The house is available unfurnished with major appliances. Of particular note are the Viking gas range (for those who love to cook), Bosch dishwasher, and new(ish) front load washer and dryer. The bathroom has a built-in tub and shower

The driveway offers off-street parking for exclusive use of the upstairs tenant (You!).

Garbage and maintenance landscaping is included in the rent. All other utilities to be paid by tenant.

First, last, and $2000 deposit to move in. Additional $500 deposit for pets.

We look forward to hearing from you, by email or text, with any questions/inquiries you may have.

It's quiet, close to the university. 10 min walk from Downtown Berkeley BART, 3 movies theaters, Groceries (Safeway, Walgreens) and a lot of restaurants. Berkeley gourmet ghetto is 4 blocks away. In addition to that, you're very close to Berkeley Hills and Tilden park. Top neighborhood."
