944 Channing Way, Apt B; 2 Bedrooms available!

2 rooms available in 3 bedroom 1 bath upstairs duplex! I am a 4th year PhD student, and am looking for 2 new housemates starting May 1st and June 1st. I have a smaller bedroom (bedroom 1), and a larger bedroom (bedroom 2) available. The smaller is... available starting May 1st, and the larger June 1st.

Our building is on a residential street in West Berkeley with a small backyard garden area and fruit trees. We are close to multiple bus lines, and walking distance from multiple coffee shops and restaurants along San Pablo, and have a really cute corner market a block away. I've lived in this building since 2021, and love this place so much!

The apartment has lots of natural light, hardwood floors, and all the fun amenities (dishwasher, in unit washer/dryer). While the bedrooms for rent are not furnished, the rest of our apartment is fully furnished (but you're welcome to bring any decor or furniture you want in!). We also have a large living room and kitchen area!

I am looking for someone who is clean (we prioritize chore charts and keeping common areas tidy, but do what you want in your room!), social (we have had occasional parties, and like to spend time having people over), and communicative. I am part of the queer community, and the apartment is an LGBTQ+ friendly-space.

I have a cat, and so do both my partner/sister, meaning there will be a rotating lineup of fur babies! They are all friendly (to both people and other cats) and non obtrusive, but being cat-friendly/cat-tolerant is a must!

Reach out if you are interested, and I would love to chat!
