◊ Charming 2BR Northside Apt 6 Min to Campus ◊

This renovated and artistically decorated 2-bedroom 1-bath apartment is located in the delightful and desirable “Near Northside” neighborhood, 6 minutes’ walk from UC Berkeley. About the apartment: •It is small but charming, fully furnished and equipped, and artistically decorated with a “cottage like” feel, in a quiet tree-lined neighborhood. •Suitable for a couple, 2 colleagues, or a small family. •Lots of “Berkeley character” in a 1920’s Tudor building •Comfortable living/dining room with hardwood floors and an old (non-working) ornate fireplace and mantel. •2 bedrooms, each with a mirrored closet. We could remove the bed from one of the bedrooms if you wish to use it as an office. •Fully equipped kitchen with dishwasher and small breakfast bar - rear entrance door leading to parking area. •Bathroom with walk-in shower - 2 showerheads. •All utilities provided including cable TV and wi-fi. •Laundry facilities at the rear of the building (a few steps from the back door). • The apartment is ideal for a couple, or a small family, or 2 colleagues. Although the apartment has 2 bedrooms, it is on the small side and can accommodate a maximum of 4 people. The Neighborhood: •Quiet and peaceful - at the foot of “Holy Hill" with several seminary schools. •It's a 6 minute walk to the UC campus - although longer if you prefer a leisurely-paced stroll along tree-lined streets or you want to stop to pick up an espresso on the way! •You are very close to Euclid Avenue with a selection of cafes, deli’s, restaurants, and a small grocery store. •10 minutes’ walk from Berkeley’s so-called “Gourmet Ghetto” with many fine and eclectic dining experiences including Alice Waters’ iconic Chez Panisse, the very first Peets Coffee, and the Cheeseboard Pizza Collective. •11-12 minutes’ walk to the Berkeley Rose Garden (where you can see spectacular sunsets over the SF Bay) and Codornices Park on Euclid Avenue. •You can walk to downtown Berkeley and the BART station (Bay Area Rapid Transit system) in about 20 minutes. There is bus service a few blocks away. •Twenty minutes driving will take you to San Francisco across the Bay Bridge (outside of rush hours!), or it’s 20 minutes via BART. Driving to Marin County, Napa Valley and Lake Tahoe are also easy options. •The rate is all-inclusive. We pay the Berkeley business license tax, but it is not charged to you. The fine print: •One off-street parking space is available for you at the rear of the building. Please don’t park in the driveway or anywhere that blocks vehicle access for other residents. •No smoking of any kind in the apartment or anywhere else in or around the building - the hallways, stairways, and the grounds! It's against the law: the City of Berkeley prohibits smoking anywhere in multi-unit buildings. We also prohibit vaping (e-cigarettes) because it creates many of the same issues as second-hand cigarette smoke. •This is a quiet residential building in a serene neighborhood (beneath redwood trees) Please, no parties or loud noise! Take extra care about noise between 10:00 p.m. and 8:00 a.m. •Sorry, no pets. Entire apartment. It has its own kitchen and bathroom and a deck off the living room. CLEANING AND DISINFECTING BEFORE YOU CHECK IN This apartment is deep cleaned and disinfected before and after every guest, in compliance with the Airbnb Enhanced Clean program. Over and above those procedures, we add extra disinfecting, using a BioSpray Surface Cleaner and Sanitizer system . You can look up BioSpray, but here’s a quote from their website: “The quick-drying BioSpray D2 removes residual moisture from surfaces and is recommended for use as a sanitizer on food processing equipment, dairy equipment, food utensils, dishes, silverware, glasses, sink tops, countertops, refrigerated storage, and display equipment and other hard nonporous food contact surfaces. Lab calibrated spray-and-shoot technology for more effective coverage, reaching inside even the smallest cracks and crevices, with better results than manual sprayers or wipes.” Also “BioSpray D2 is a combination of isopropyl alcohol and a powerful quaternary ammonium compound.” It is a hospital-grade disinfectant and is “included on EPA list of disinfectants for use against SARS-COV-2 (Search EPA# 73232-1).”
