Nestled in a serene, family-friendly neighborhood surrounded by UC Berkeley families, this 3-bedroom, 2-bath home offers both comfort and functionality, beautifully furnished to meet the needs of a modern lifestyle. The kitchen is equipped with premium appliances such as a KitchenAid oven, mixer, Bosch dishwasher, and gas stove. In addition to the 3 rooms, there's an additional room (not included in the pictures) for use as an office or double as a gym, tailored to your lifestyle. Central to the home is the first living room, where a gas fireplace adds warmth and ambiance, making it a cozy retreat for relaxation and family gatherings. The house also boasts a large additional area at the back, bathed in natural light from dual skylights and a vaulted ceiling, offering flexibility as a playroom, second living room, or another workspace. Outdoor living is equally inviting, with a backyard designed for family enjoyment. It features a sandbox, slide, swing set, and a small garden where vegetables and fruits thrive alongside a flourishing lemon tree and succulent peach trees, providing delicious home-grown treats. For convenience, the property includes a bike shed for secure storage and a large shed with a tool bench for your projects or repairs. Parking is in an open driveway, with access to an installed Tesla charger (can be used with any EV with a converter I believe). The front garden has an array of vibrant flowers and plants, contributing to the home’s curb appeal. An 8-minute walk brings you to the El Cerrito Plaza BART station, with a 5-minute quick ride to downtown Berkeley and the UC Berkeley campus, perfect for visitors or those connected to the university. The home’s direct access to the Ohlone Greenway enhances its appeal, offering a scenic route for jogging and biking straight to the heart of Solano Ave’s famous dining scene with all the restaurants, cafes, and other shops. Positioned ideally for access to multiple public schools, this home is more than a living space—it's a hub for creating lasting memories and enjoying the conveniences of city living with the tranquility of a family-oriented community. Whether it's picking fruit in your backyard, enjoying the warmth of the fireplace, or exploring the neighborhood with your family, this home promises a fulfilling and comfortable lifestyle.

Comments: UC Berkeley only 13 min away (8-min walk to BART stop, then exactly 5-min ride). Solano Ave restaurants and cafes are just 1 mile away (via Ohlone greenway, a car-free bike and walk path). Quiet, family-friendly neighborhood. Near multiple schools.
Comments: The property has Solar panels, so your utility bills will be lower than usual. Cable/internet are up to your choice so we should discuss what suits you. We have cleaners that we use and like that can continue if you'd like to keep that service.
Comments: We're ok with small pets, especially hypoallergenic ones without fur (e.g. poodles), but happy to chat and learn more about your situation.

Comments: Available late June / July 1. Ideally we get someone for a whole year, as we'll be traveling to Germany for at least a year, maybe 2. But flexible if we find the perfect family.
