Beat the HEAT - North Oakland Home ready for your family’s SUMMER FUN!
It’s a great time to start the new year in the Bay Area! Come stay at my family home inspired by my travels around the globe as a musician and my pride for ‘The Town.’ Nestled in a beautiful and quiet historic North Oakland neighborhood, my home features: gorgeous coffered ceilings, a formal dining room that seats six, chef's kitchen, queen-sized beds with 1,000 thread-count luxury sheets in every bedroom, spa-like bathrooms with thoughtful toiletries, home office, and a zen backyard with sound system and BBQ. Features “SMART” home details such as light and sprinkler automation, NEST thermostat, and a RING doorbell (with backyard camera) that can be operated with an ALEXA home device. Its perfect for the solo business traveler, the couple looking for some time to get away from it all, adventure seekers wanting to explore the San Francisco Bay Area while still being in close proximity to SF and Napa, or the family road trip stop off (we've got private off-street parking that can accommodate an RV or even a boat). You'll feel like you're in your own oasis while staying here! Taking a family trip with small kiddos? Perfect home for families with small children and I can supply a high chair, crib, and car seat if needed so you don’t have to travel with these bulky items. Oh and did I mention the location?! Meet up at ‘The Greek!’ Perfect home to stay in while taking in a summer concert at The Greek Theatre. My home is a quick ten minute drive to/from the UC Berkeley campus and a ten minute drive to the vibrant downtown Oakland attractions and restaurants. Heading off for the day to explore San Francisco and celebrate PRIDE is literally a 15-minute drive over the Bay Bridge, and wine country is a 45-minute drive away- so basically LOCATION, LOCATION, LOCATION! Can’t wait to meet you!
