A room has opened up in my beautiful spacious and serene 6-br home in Berkeley Hills starting July1st. The house has plenty of space and outdoor decking for unwinding after a long day, as a retreat to read a book, enjoy a morning coffee or meditate while looking out over the waters of the San Francisco Bay. I occupy a room on the lower level. I am a retired professional who enjoys a quiet and well-kept home and intend to attract tenants who enjoy the same. 3 of the 6 bedrooms are currently rented to 2 women and one man. The available room is a cozy bedroom with large windows with a view of the patio and garden. This room can be rented furnished or unfurnished. It currently has a comfortable full-sized bed with drawers. The house is just off Grizzly Peak. The neighborhood is serene and quiet, located one and a half blocks from the house. UC Berkeley campus and Lawrence Berkeley Lab are a brief shuttle ride away. Upstairs is the shared living area, kitchen with dishwasher and microwave, 4 bedrooms as well as bathroom with shower. Lower level is where you will find the washer and dryer that is shared by all, as well as two bedrooms. The room is available July 1st. Rent is $1450/month with utilities included. I am looking preferably for a long-term renter. The lease can’t accommodate pets or smokers (of anything). If you are interested, drop me a line and tell me some things about yourself and what you are looking for in a shared house! • Abundant shared spaces • Brick fireplace • Expansive wrap-around deck • Panoramic Bay views • Nestled in peaceful, walkable, nature-filled Berkeley Hills • One and a half blocks to Tilden Regional Park • Steps to stops for AC Transit #65, UC Berkeley, and LBL shuttles • No-fee washer and dryer on site • Utilities included • Reverse osmosis filtered water throughout • Quiet, non-smoking, shoe-free environment • Respectful housemates
