About this House

What's unique:Dining roomLarge floor planPlenty of natural lightAmple storage spaceCozy outdoor nookSpacious and bright kitchen
We are offering a room in our beloved North Berkeley home. The house occupies the top two floors of a large 5-bedroom shingle-style residence, located conveniently near Spruce and Vine Streets. We're just a short walk from popular spots like Cheeseboard, Farmhouse Thai, Chez Panisse, a climbing gym, and two grocery stores, as well as various cafes and great
restaurants.

The house has a large floor plan. There are three bedrooms on the main floor and two on the top floor. Each room receives plenty of natural light, especially the living room, which features large windows on two walls. The house has two full bathrooms, one on each floor, shared by all housemates. Additionally, there is a spacious and bright kitchen, dining room, washer/dryer alcove, a cozy outdoor nook, dishwasher, and two refrigerators.

The available room is on the top floor and will be unfurnished (the photos show it furnished). It is a large (21ft x 18ft) and sunny room with windows on three sides. With a nook area for a desk or library space. You can even see the Golden Gate Bridge from your bedroom window on a clear day! The current housemate has been here for 9 years and is moving out to move in with her partner.

We maintain a clean and organized household, sharing weekly chores. We are pretty independent people and keep a busy schedule, but also enjoy time together when our schedules allow. The kitchen is well-equipped with two fridges, an electric oven with a gas range, a dishwasher, and ample storage space.

Rent is $928 per month, with additional bills averaging around $50/pp per month. The move in date is Nov 15th, but can be flexible.

If you're interested, please send us an email and introduce yourself. We'd love to know a bit about you and what you are looking for in a home. The first round of meet&greet will be over Zoom. Thanks for reading!

    "I have been living at the cross of Virginia and Spruce for nearly 5 years and loved it. 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."
