About this House

What's unique:Teak parquet flooringLarge sunny carpeted bedroom
Lovely in-law apartment in a quiet, safe, convenient neighborhood. Entirely above ground on the street level at the front and one story off the ground in the back because the lot slopes downhill.

The main room has an open floor plan for kitchen and living area with teak parquet flooring. We owners (a semi-retired couple) live upstairs. Note: You enter our front hall first, then through a locking door to the apartment. Our kitchen is above the apartment bedroom.

Electricity, gas, water, garbage, and use of washer and dryer in the basement are included. One block from the Arlington Avenue shops and the #7 AC Transit bus. Within a 10-minute drive are UC Berkeley, the Gourmet Ghetto, El Cerrito Plaza BART and shopping center, and Solano Avenue. Parking is adequate, on the street, for one car only. No smoking or pets!

Available long term we built the house ourselves and will never sell it. The current tenant has stayed seven years. Please email Phil and include your phone number.
