Description

Tired of living above/below a noisy neighbor or dealing with management companies?

Hi we're Mike and Kevin and we're looking to rent out the unfurnished 1bed/1bath front unit of a duplex. We're both working professionals. Mike is an MIT alum and a biking and roller coaster fanatic. Kevin is from the bay area, a UC Berkeley alum, and he loves houseplants and some cross stitching. This north-facing unit faces the front yard and has a gas fireplace and a washer/dryer. We also have our barbecue grill in the back if you'd like to use it on occasion. The bedroom has one large closet and there's another adjacent large closet and two additional smaller closets. You can also use the shed in the yard for outdoor storage. We have typical job schedules so we'd like someone who also appreciates peace and quiet late on a weeknight. Kitchen has a stove, fridge, dishwasher. There's a free large parking spot in front and a lawn and back patio for entertaining and relaxing. It's a quick bike ride to UC Berkeley or a 15 minute walk to Ashby BART. Berkeley Bowl is a 10 minute walk away. We just moved in so we're not sure what the house is like during the summer but if it gets too hot, we can look into installing a 5000 BTU AC window unit in your bedroom. If you're interested, please let us know a bit about yourself and what lease terms you're looking for. We're usually available most times during the week to show the place and we can also provide a virtual tour link. LGBTQ+ friendly.

Note: Pictures are for example layout only, unit is unfurnished. We'll add blinds to your unit and do some bathroom updates before move-in.

* $2600 rent for a couple
* Flexible lease possible, preferably 1 year or 6 months
* Security deposit is 1x rent
* Free parking spots
* Garbage is paid by us
* Sonic internet is paid by us
* A well-behaved medium pet is potentially negotiable.
* No tobacco. No smoking inside. 420 acceptable outside (just be mindful of the neighbors).
This property is off market, which means it's not currently listed for sale or rent on Trulia. This may be different from what's available on other websites or public sources.

    "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 "
