Great Room In Berkeley Craftsman House close to UC

Hello! We are currently looking for the right person/persons to rent a medium-large sized bedroom, (132 sq. ft.) in our very nice 3 bedroom/2 bathroom house. The room is spacious, has a window and a closet, and has previously been an ideal space for... native and foreign born university/college students/post grads, and couples. The rent is $1100 per month, {not including utilities, (PG&E, EBMUD, and AT&T Wireless) which we share and split evenly among the housemates; averaging approximately another $150/month}. I ask for a little more if the room is to be shared. We prefer a year lease, but are potentially open to a shorter commitment as well. First month’s rent, last month’s rent, and a security deposit are required upon move in.The house is centrally located in Berkeley, and is within walking/biking distance to the UC and BCC. An AC transit bus which goes directly to the UCB campus, is on the NE corner of the block. The house is small, homey, very charming and sunny, and has beautiful hardwood floors throughout. The neighborhood is safe and clean and primarily consists of single family homes. Our neighbors are all very friendly and considerate, and tend to keep an eye out for one another. Our house is also close to both the Downtown Berkeley and Ashby BART stations, and freeway access is just over a mile away. Several yummy restaurabnts are also just a few blocks away. Free street parking throughout the neighborhood is also readily available. The house is shared with a native, mellow Berkeley elementary school teacher, (and his two kids; half-time whom have lived in the house >12 years) their sweet indoor cat, and an awesome musician/cinephile/francophile. Together, we are looking to share our home with a clean, relatively quiet, respectful, friendly, and honest tenant, (or tenants) who like/s kids. We intend on finding someone who understands and respects the fact that the household is shared, and who can agree to live by our common and basic house standards. Our kitchen is spacious and sunny, and has a beautiful old a very functional Wedgwood gas range and dishwasher. You would be sharing a bathroom with the artist, as the other tenant and his children, have their own. We are also a cat friendly household!I If you have potential interest and would like to further discuss details and potentially arrange a time to view the room and house, feel free to contact me and I will respond as soon as I can..Thanks
