One year lease Full year commitment. Beginning August 15, 2025-July 31, 2025

Quiet, garden setting, it is set back, not really visible from the street. It is a house behind a house surrounded in garden, Feels secluded yet in Central Berkeley close to everything. Walk score 83.
23 minute walk to UCB campus. or 10-15 min bike ride. Centrally located, 10 -15 min walk to BART, downtown, Trader Joes, 10 min bike ride to either of the Berkeley Bowls, or Monterey Market, or the Cheeseboard.So Foodie Heaven!

Room is at end of hallway upstairs, there is southern exposure balcony beyond the room, (great in winter) Room has an operable skylight with screen on the east side looks out to back garden and redwood tree. The other window is south facing looks out to the balcony so room has natural light in morning to early afternoon. It has an tree house feel with sloping roof rising to 9' high ceiling. It has a double bed, an armoire, chest of drawers, night stand, desk with lamp.

Once a month professional house cleaning is included in the rent as well as with utilities, wifi, electrical/water/heat. Also convenient use of washer and dryer on ground level basement floor. Can just wheel bicycles inside for dry and safe storage. This is all included in the rent, provides a supportive lifestyle for busy lives.

Common rooms are welcome to use, lots natural light in each part of the house at various times of the day. Piano in living room. Large dining table seats 6+. Well equipped kitchen! . We sometimes share meals, like conversations, but are pretty busy. Nice rhythm of solo and shared time in the house. Garden has wifi connection, there is a bbq, benches, table and chairs. Three or four times a year, there is a Garden Work Party (lunch is served!) as help in the garden unless you like gardening more, like I do... :)

Rooming with grad students and a postdoc and me, a retired landscape designer who owns the house. We are five in all in each private rooms with three floor levels, two full baths on separate floors . Am happy to set up an initial zoom house tour.
Looking forward to hearing from you.

One year lease firm commitment.

    "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"

  • 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."
