Furnished room in Quiet, Retreat-like Victorian House

I have a furnished room called the "Fireside Room" now available in a large Victorian home in the South Berkeley area, 2 blocks from Ashby BART, about 1.25 mile south of campus. Once you contact me I can direct you to my website with more... information on the room and house.

My house is oriented to be a quiet, retreat-like setting, and is a good fit for independent folks mainly focused on their own work or studies. It is not as good a fit for highly social people who would want to have friends over often. It features an attractive backyard garden with many fruit trees, a bike storage area, meditation hut and rabbits in hutches. You can also read about house rules and the neighborhood on my website. If interested, let me know your phone number and good times to reach you.
