Berkeley- views, food and university!
Our home is comfortable and easy to stay in. There is so much light; at the front from Bedroom #1 are views of San Francisco, the Bay, Golden Gate Bridge, Mt. Tam, Oakland, and out the back through French doors from the kitchen is a large deck with furniture, grill, heater, and umbrellas, and a beautiful garden beyond with a bench to sit and enjoy the views at sunset. It is a lovely building built 1924 with interesting architectural details of the era, but modern features for 21st century comfort. There are stairs to the unit, two flights in the interior and 1 flight at the exterior. We have good wifi, smart TV, toys for children and everything in the kitchen you will need. Laundry is in the garage, and there is parking for one car.
