Quiet Garden Cottage Southside 10 min walk to campus

Great Location - a 10 min walk to Campus. Sweet cottage with furnished light-filled studio set in beautiful, quiet backyard rose garden. Newly remodeled - kitchenette with smart/toaster oven, venting microwave and induction burners, cork floor,... European full bed, desk and ergonomic chair, windows, opening skylight, and bathroom with storage cabinet, drawers, and shower. Excellent sound system, streaming TV and high-speed wifi. May be rented furnished or just partly furnished. Laundry room off patio available for shared use. Space in storage room included.
A safe tree-lined residential street in a lovely walkable, bikeable, and desirable Berkeley neighborhood. A 5 -10 min walk to delightful cafes such as Sconehenge, the Berkeley Bowl and Whole Foods grocery stores, and College Ave. shops. Bus transit and rental bikes stations a block away, subway stations are 10-15 minute walk down Shattuck Ave. Parking on street restricted to 2 hrs. M-Sat without permit, permit may be obtained with vehicle registration change, and our driveway may be used until permit obtained.
Enjoy the back garden - a bench under the shade of a persimmon tree, a table that seats 4 in the rose garden, and area with recliners behind the studio. Studio is behind our home, with entrance through a locked driveway gate. We are quiet long-time Berkeley residents, and look forward to welcoming someone into our backyard studio. Perfect for a visiting scholar, graduate student, or post doc who wants a peaceful green place to live/study. International scholars of all faiths and religions are very welcome.
