Private bedroom in a beautiful art filled Berkeley hills home with breathtaking views

Private fully furnished bedroom for rent in a large, art-filled home at the top of the Berkeley Hills - $1500/month. This is a shared suite with one current occupant (quiet, courteous PhD male student). We are looking for 1 renter, male, quiet and... mature foreign graduate/PhD student. Details as follows:
Large private bedroom with wall-to-wall desk and a lot of storage
Private, fully remodeled bathroom shared with another student.
We have a very well-equipped home gym, which you’re welcome to use
Beautiful outdoor deck with a fireplace and breathtaking views of the Golden Gate Bridge
Access to washer and dryer
Access to fully equipped gourmet kitchen
Free Wi-Fi
Water, electrical, garbage, utilities are included.
On street parking, no permits required.
Rooms are professionally cleaned 2X per month.

We are 2 miles from the north end of UC Berkeley. The bus stops across the street with direct service to campus, 10 minutes away (or a 25-minute downhill walk).
Tilden Park is 5 minutes away in the opposite direction, if you like to run, bike, swim, golf or hike.
Rent is From September 2025 to May 2026, 9 or 10 months lease, exact dates TBD, Afterward can be extended month to month.
This is not a separate unit, although you will have a separate entrance, it's in our home, so there would be some restrictions (no overnight guests, no smoking inside, things like that). We also have a cat, so if you’re allergic, factor that in.
We are an older professional couple with a son who is going off to college, so his suite is being rented out. It's available from September 1, 2025.
We’ll require $ 500 as a refundable deposit. Please call 510 332 8785 if you have any questions, or contact us at [email removed]
