Charming Berkeley Apartment with a Fantastic Roomm

Your room

Available starting Mar 1st, $1,650 + Utilities

Are you on the lookout for a delightful living situation in Berkeley? I have a beautiful apartment that could be your new home! 🏡

Located on the second floor of a lovely Victorian-style house at Derby and MLK, the apartment offers a calm and happy atmosphere with lots of light and fresh air. The location is incredibly convenient, with easy access to the Ashby Bart, Berkeley Bowl, the 12 bus, and we have a corner store. The campus is a 20-minute walk away or a 10-minute bike ride.
The apartment would only be shared between you and me. It's a 3-bedroom place, but I'd like to keep one room free for occasional visitors or as a shared office space. There’s a great living room, a big kitchen, office space, a shared laundry room, and even an outdoor space with a fire pit—ideal for relaxing evenings and fun gatherings with friends. 🌳🔥

A little about me: I’m a professional working for a sustainability non-profit, originally from Colombia, and UC Berkeley Alumni. I have a passion for yoga, Zumba, gardening, painting, and camping, and you might catch me dancing around the house when the mood strikes. I just started tennis classes, too. Movie nights are a must, and I love spending quality time with friends. 🌱🎨🏕️

I've been lucky to form strong friendships with most of my roommates in my previous living situations. While I expect us to be independent, I would like to foster a friendly and harmonious living environment where we can connect beyond sharing rent. 🤗 It is ideal for a fellow professional in their 30s, a postdoc, researcher, or visiting scholar- seeking a similar friendly and sociable living situation.

Cleanliness is a priority for me, so I'm looking for someone who also values a tidy and well-organized living space. Together, we can maintain the apartment's charm and keep it sparkling clean! 💫

The apartment comes fully furnished, so you won't have to worry about buying furniture. The move-in cost includes the first and last month's rent and a 1-month security deposit. Of course, the landlord will conduct a credit check, and we'll sign a sublease agreement for everyone's peace of mind.

Women, minorities, and internationals are welcome! 🌍🌈
