About this House

What's unique:Grand pianoLemons rosemary and flowersFamily roomVaulted ceilingDining roomOpens onto a terrace
Our beautiful home is a 1931 stucco cottage with red-tile roof, exposed beams, and wood windows. Its front door opens onto Rose Walk, a pedestrian walkway designed by Bernard Maybeck (and a Berkeley landmark). Downstairs there is a large living room with a grand piano, fireplace and vaulted ceiling, a dining room that opens onto a terrace, a well-equipped kitchen with a breakfast nook, a half bathroom, and a family room or office space that opens up onto a large back patio. Upstairs there are three bedroom and two bathrooms. The garden is beautiful, with lemons, rosemary, and flowers in bloom at almost any time of year. It's a 15 minute walk (or 5 minute bus ride) to the UC Berkeley campus and North Berkeley restaurants and shopping, and just a little farther to downtown Berkeley and the Berkeley BART station (with convenient access to San Francisco). Codornices Park and the Berkeley Rose Garden are just two blocks away in this wonderful neighborhood.

We would like to rent the house furnished, for approximately the same period we will be away on sabbatical, August 2025-July 2026. We will need to move back in at the beginning of August 2026.

Owner pays for water, high-speed internet, VOIP phone, garbage pickup, and alarm system. Renter pays for gas and electric. No smoking in the house. This is a fixed term lease (one year); owners will move back in at the end.

    "It's a very safe neighborhood. Cragmont park and remillard park are great for kids. It's beautiful and hilly so you need to be fit to get around. "

    "Easy, I drive to West Berkeley and it’s typically about 12 minutes to get to work. Driving in the Berkeley hills always calls for caution as there are people and children out on the streets where there aren’t always proper sidewalks. "

    "All the wildlife are present - squirrels, cats, deer, turkey to make your dog want to run and chase them away. Rare sightings of coyote in the neighborhood and mid night sounds of wild cats hunting."

    "Hills, architecture, parks every where, great city views on walks, a sense of community (which can make people too wary), greenery, lots of dog walking at any hour, nature is so close which is fantastic for bird watching (Cal Falcons, Commodores, etc), deer frolicking all the time, turkey can be seen on their strolls, every house a drive way but most are too small for cars to fit.

    "Haven't lived in this neighborhood in years, but often go back for friends and family and am always pleased to visit the area. It's green; the architecture is varied by virtue of the topography; stunning views of the City abound and are perfectly centered as this neighborhood is almost due east of the Golden Gate Bridge, which also plays a big role in the neighborhood's wonderful microclimate."
