About this House

Beautiful one bedroom with hardwood floors.

Gorgeous and Fully Remodeled Studio, Brand New Kitchen with top of the line cabinetry and granite counter-tops, Refinished Hardwood Floors, Stainless Steel Appliances

Why live in a huge tightly packed building when you can live in a fresh air garden apartment with a great vibe! No claustrophobic hallways, elevators or carpeting in this building! Open feeling, clean air and green jungle like surroundings! Neighbors are friendly and quiet, location has a high walking score too!

This apartment offers large windows allowing an abundance of natural light, an immaculately updated kitchen equipped with wood cabinets, stainless refrigerator and gas stove.

The bedroom also has hardwood flooring with a walk in closet.

The property features a unique, lush and serene Asian style bamboo garden in a secure large courtyard which includes a small deck and BBQ.

Off-Street parking available, bicycle secure lock-up in the rear of building and coin-op laundry.

The bus stops one block away.

Walk to several restaurants, including Mo'joe Cafe and the Homemade Cafe. 12 minute bike ride to U.C. Berkeley Campus or to N Berkeley BART.

Zillow values this unit at over $2300 and a building on the same block has one bedroom units that don't compare listed at $2250. This is a very fair rent for a well maintained building that the owner takes pride in. We think you'll feel a difference when you tour this building.

Kindly review the business side of things below:

$1.00 monthly fee for laundry upkeep.

COVID-19 INFO: This unit is sanitized, all handles, doorknobs, etc. have been wiped down with isopropal alcohol and the walls have been repainted! We will meet you at the building, open the door for you and you can tour the apartment without anyone else in the apartment while we wait outside. We have your health and safety in mind at all times.

For a showing please see contact info at the bottom. We are now taking applications.

1) Please use our easy online method, the application fees don't go to us and must be paid through the LINK BELOW before they can be processed. One Application per person over the age of 18 please.
2) All supporting documents such as pay-stubs, IDs, current and past rental history with phone numbers should be attached to the online application to expedite the processing of the application.
3) Submitting an application will require paying an application fee. This fee won't be refunded whether a full or partial credit check is processed or not since the company we contract with does not issue refunds and the money goes to them and not us. If you genuinely like the apartment, please apply. We don't benefit from your application fees and we encourage people not to randomly apply and pay an application fee that they cannot recover.
4) We are 100% transparent and believe in full disclosures. Every once in a while an error may creep into one of our advertisements even after we proof and re-proof an ad. We in no way intend to make any misrepresentations and will correct any errors as soon as we are notified. A discrepancy is extremely rare, however, BEMG is not liable if any such errors appear in our advertisement or creates an inconvenience for you.

5) All square footage is approximate. At times pictures may be of a similar unit and not necessarily of the unit being advertised (we may have more than one apartment available). When in doubt, please ask questions until you are fully satisfied.

6) We look at all applications on a first come, first serve basis based on qualifications. We are an equal opportunity housing provider.

7) Upon being approved, we require a holding deposit (by 1pm of the next business day) which is part of your move-in deposit so we can hold the apartment for you. At that time, we remove the ad (if it's the only unit available) and email you a lease.

8) We structure the lease so that the lease end date is no later than the beginning/end of the Summer and they'd be renewable again for a year at the anniversary date.

9) Proof of renters insurance is required, this is inexpensive and protects both parties.

Thank you for your attention to all of the above. The staff at Bay's Elite Management is here to help, we look forward to working with you and serving your needs! 01522384

    "we care for each neighborhood, and watch out for one another in this big community. From helping the elderly to supporting the youth it's one big fest of communities colliding together and having each other backs. Let's not forget the big parties and many fusion restaurants they have to offer. With its diversity of multicultural foods the possibilities are endless and of course let's not forget our classics to New York style pizza to traditional Mexican cuisine it's an abyss of nothing but delicious food coming your way "
