Stay in our lovely home in Berkeley, fewer than 2 miles from the UC Berkeley campus, in a great family neighborhood (Thousand Oaks). Century old beautiful craftsman home updated with all modern conveniences - including new air-conditioning. $4,250 per month. Or $1500 weekly. Our home is available after mid-March 2023 for 1 to 8 week periods beginning. Non-simultaneous or simultaneous exchanges considered. Excellent references from the many couples and families who have recently rented or exchanged--recommendations on request. Architect designed lovely 3 bedrooms, two baths, grandchild room, modern kitchen, within walking distance of the wonderful shops, restaurants, and cafes of Solano Avenue. (kids equipment and toys available--we are grandparents!) Our home can present as a pleasant peaceful abode for couples and also transform into a family home. Many successful exchanges and rentals around the world dating back to the 1970s. We are a retired academic couple and have lived in our home for 34 years. Paul is emeritus at the UC Berkeley School of Social Welfare and Kathy was an educator and literacy trainer. Our three boys were raised in this home and are now grown with families. We hope to hear from you!
