NEIGHBORHOOD INFORMATION
Fall in love with the neighborhood right on the border of Berkeley and Oakland. Two blocks in one direction is a Whole Foods and two blocks in the other direction is the amazing White Horse Inn bar. The 50-year-old Smokehouse burger joint is half a block away and you can find spectacular Ethiopian, Burmese, Thai, and Vietnamese restaurants just further down. For all that is close by, it's also a quiet, safe and residential block - best of all worlds! Plus, with no traffic, the drive to SF is only 15 minutes and it's a very pretty 10 minute walk to the ASHBY BART.
