About this House

Studio Unit in Beautiful House, Clean, Quiet and Safe, Great Area, Wood Floors, Near UCB

Hi! I have a wonderful 500 sf studio with private bath and separate garden entrance just 6 blocks from UCB and 3 blocks from Elmwood shopping and dining area. The unit has been freshly painted and updated with nice kitchen and dining/study area, sizable living and sleeping area, nice sized closet, comfortable bathroom, and a great outdoor garden space to enjoy. It's a special place that you will have no trouble calling home.

The unit is wood flooring (except tile in the bathroom), full size frig in the kitchen, microwave oven for your use, and extra storage if you need it. Included is off street parking, shared wifi, and on-site laundry at no extra charge.

I'm looking for quiet, respectful, responsible, friendly and conscientious tenants. There's owner occupied homes on 2 sides (my previous tenants LOVE the neighbors), and a rental on the 3rd side of the house. This is a non-smoking property, no parties or loud noises, and efforts need to be made to take care of the unit.

The studio is in a great neighborhood, just 6 blocks from UC Berkeley (far enough away to be away from the nightly student parties) and 3 blocks from the Elmwood shopping and dining area. Half block away is a cafe, small market, a salon, a laundromat (if you have large heavy loads not appropriate for on-premises laundry) and public transportation. Easy walk to CVS, Telegraph Ave. One on-site, off-street parking space is available. For about $35 per year, you can get a City street parking permit for additional vehicles.

Rent is $2,000 per month. Security deposit is $2,000. I pay for garbage and recycling, you share payment of electricity and water with house tenants (very nice, quiet students at UCB). Available starting now. Feel free to call or text me with questions and/or to set up a viewing.

Non-smoking property, no loud music, noises, parties. Lease to end May 31, 2026 or July 31, 2026, and can be renewed if landlord and tenant are in agreement. Utilities (water, gas, electricity) are split as a percentage of number of tenants on the property. No subletting of any kind allowed.
2624 College Ave, Berkeley, CA 94704 is a studio, 1 bathroom, 500 sqft single-family home in Telegraph. It last sold for $210,000 on May 23, 1997 (10,400% above the $2,000 asking price).

    "Lots of students in the area because of the proximity to UC Berkeley. Its also a very political area, marches and cops and helicopters are not uncommon in response to the political climate. "

    "I lived in this neighborhood for 3 years. Since it's just south of the UC Berkeley campus, there is a lot of foot traffic and noise when school is in session. Mostly students live in this neighborhood but there are a ton of homeless people lying on the sidewalks and they can get pretty aggressive. Plenty of cheap restaurants catering to students as well."

    "Berkeley has high property taxes with the outcome of good public services and excellent schools. This part of south Berkeley is bicycle friendly with great grocery stores (perhaps the best options in the State!) plus neighbors who walk and know each other. A very enjoyable & diverse neighborhood."

    "A perfect 10-15 minute walk to the Cal Campus or the upscale, but delicious Elmwood area. Animal friendly neighborhood, with a fairly strong neighborhood association. The Julia Morgan Theater and Benvenue Public Library as well as excellent schools are just some of the treasures of this area."
