About this property

Light-filled home with great outdoor space

New to VRBO, but lots of reviews over the years - happy to share.

Quiet 1 bedroom home on a great street 3 blocks from the South Berkeley Farmer's Market. Thoughtful layout with great flow, tall ceilings, beautiful outdoor space, fully stocked kitchen, laundry and peloton. The space was designed by an architect as her own home. Enter through a garden walkway, and open the french doors in the bedroom to a private back patio. Enjoy hummingbirds, blueberries and figs in the shared yard. Two desks/workspaces and fiber internet. Frosted glass french doors were installed to separate the large bedroom from the common areas (the pictures are from before those were built).

The neighborhood (North Oakland / South Berkeley) is a hidden gem hosting creatives, cooperatives, verdant gardens, vintage homes, an underground house concert venue (converted from a vintage laundromat), a 4-generation family owned Southern diner with delicious pie, and a Tamale window (don't miss it). Walking distance from Temescal and Rockridge and an easy commute to San Francisco and UC Berkeley.

I live upstairs and have a sweet social puppy who may say hello in the yard.

Beautiful space, relaxed environment -- would book again!

The host was thorough and communicative throughout booking, check in, and the stay. The street is charming and conveniently located, and the space is welcoming and felt like home. The amenities were clean and new and the guest felt very comfortable. The back yard was a beautiful addition. We'd recommend it to anyone looking for a centrally-located stay in Oakland/Berkeley

The host continually referred to a co-host while she was a way. Nobody wants to try and keep two names, phone #'s and texts straight. We only saw her once in passing although we did text several times

I was out of town so connected the guest with my next door neighbor who is a professional property manager and helps while I’m out of town. My neighbor and I both had a poor experience with this guest. It was my first issue with a guest in 12 years of hosting.
