AVAILABLE 11/23/25 OR AFTER Large furnished bedroom available in a quiet/clean house in Oakland's Golden Gate neighborhood. On the border of Emeryville and Berkeley and an easy commute to San Francisco and UC Berkeley. Near BART and buses (F, 72, 88 & more). There is plenty of street parking, right near the side entry to the house. This is a great biking area too. Less than 1 flat mile to Trader Joe's, Berkeley Bowl, or Safeway.
Your room is about 15' x 15'. It has a queen bed, walk-in closet, ceiling fan, cafe table for work/eating, etc. You will share the kitchen and bathroom with me. The kitchen does not have a table but you are welcome to eat in your room or on the back patio when the weather is nice. There is no access to the living/dining room because that is my living space. My area and your room are on opposite ends of the house with the entry by the sidedoor, kitchen and bathroom in the middle. This layout gives us both privacy. We share a communal laundry room and back patio w/my brother and his wife who live in the attached house next door.
Rent INCLUDES all utilities, high speed WIFI and a monthly housekeeper. If you would like to use the wall mounted TV in your room, you will need to subscribe to cable. If you are staying long term and prefer the room to be unfurnished, let's discuss.
I am 61 and work from home as a management consultant for social justice organizations. Interests are hiking, history, reading, political podcasts, and animal rescue. I am friendly and easy going.
Sorry, no smoking and no drugs. I have 1 cat and 2 yappy chihuahuas who mainly stay in my space. If you are staying short term and have a pet, let's discuss the possibilities. Like maybe a senior cat or dog who can be happy staying in your room. Please note, you would have to walk your dog. There is no space in the shared yard/patio for doggy breaks. There are small dog parks nearby.
My house is not fancy, but, it is clean, calm, comfortable and welcoming. Please reach out and tell me a little about yourself.
