Bedroom in Downtown Martinez Home - utils incl.

Discover Martinez, CA — where quiet, tree-lined streets meet a lively downtown, and San Francisco is just a short ride away.

Private bedroom (can be provided furnished or unfurnished) available on the lower level of a lovingly maintained 1905 vintage home in one of downtown Martinez's most walkable neighborhoods, shared with a friendly family. It shares a stylish, newly renovated bathroom, featuring a glass-and-black-framed walk-in shower with subway tile, modern brass fixtures, and designer lighting — vintage charm outside, boutique-hotel feel inside. The room stays comfortable year-round: internal transom windows draw heating and cooling from the mini-split in the common area, plus an exterior window for natural light and fresh air. A fridge and microwave are provided for your use (no full kitchen access) — and with downtown's restaurants, cafes, and takeout spots just blocks away, great meals are never far.

Relax outdoors on the expansive back deck — shaded by sail canopies and strung with cafe lights, it's perfect for morning coffee, evening unwinding, or dining al fresco under the stars.

Location is the star. Richardson Street sits on a quiet residential block just a short stroll from historic downtown Martinez — restaurants, coffee shops, breweries, the farmers market, and community events are all within easy walking distance, along with the marina, waterfront park, and miles of hiking and biking trails. The Amtrak station is downtown, and BART is a short drive away in Pleasant Hill or Lafayette for commuters heading to Oakland or SF.
