Description

A cute two-story home in the heart of Berkeley is available for rent.
This house is approximately 1,300 square feet with 2 bedrooms and 2 bathrooms.
We just finished the upstairs bathroom remodel.

The home has a full kitchen and laundry facilities.
The house shares a yard with the cottage in the back, which will also have a tenant. The utilities are split. You pay 2/3 and the back tenant pays 1/3.

The driveway is for this house, so you do not need to park on the street.
12 minutes walk to the Downtown Berkeley BART station. It is in a convenient location but situated on a very quiet street.

Pets are ok with putting an additional pet deposit. ($1,500)
No smoking.
Background check ($35), reference check, first month's rent, and security deposit at time of signing.

There is another house in the back and you share the backyard.
The utility costs are divided between the tenant in the back. ( Main house 2/3, cottage 1/3)
The driveway is for this house. ( 2 cars can fit in this driveway)
Monthly gardening service is included.

    "South Berkeley is a transitioning neighborhood as most places around America there is gentrification going on. Berkeley overall is a good place to live with good schools"
  • Joiyao

  • walzer
    "Walk to entertainment, supermarket and transportation. Includes detached 500 sq ft. art studio"
  • Rie Y.
    "This is a fairly quiet street, with some foot and car traffic since it connects to Sacramento Street and University Ave. But it's much more neighborhood-oriented than it seems, and close to daycare/dog park/cafe/bakery."
  • mysolosusan
    "I live almost on the corner of Bancroft and Roosevelt, and have lived in central Berkeley for two straight decades now. It's a great neighborhood - I see there's supposed to be a bit higher crime not far from here, but in all these years I've seen only one crime - a mugging wherein a Berkeley high graduate about 19 years old, tried to steal an earbud for a cell phone from a high school girl. He didn't get the earbud and the police caught him and a couple others with the minimum of fuss. That's it, although I've heard of a couple other small crimes more toward university. To live here is to feel very safe, and really be in walking distance to UC, and all kinds of shops, restaurants and so on. The little tot parks are real nice, especially the one on Roosevelt, and walking is very enjoyable due to all the lovely landscaping done in this area around private homes. Neighbors are great. I love living here except for having to get a parking permit - which is cheap and easy to do really."
