Description

Yes! That is the view from the front balcony of this home. Enjoy your morning coffee or, especially, your evening cocktail from here and take in the glorious vistas from Bridge to Bridge. In the morning, turn your eyes out from your bed to the rear hillside and you just might catch the local deer herd nibbling their breakfast. El Cerrito is a long established hillside neighborhood located about 8 miles from UC Berkeley. Just amble down the hill to the Del Norte BART station and you can find yourself steps from the UC campus in about 10 minutes. Or maybe venture over to San Francisco on the Ferry departing from nearby Richmond. This modern home was designed with easy living and entertaining in mind. The main level is open plan to take full advantage of the light and expansive views. It flows right out to the side patio where you and your guests can enjoy a nice BBQ while enjoying the plentiful orchid garden. Everything you need to make yourself at home is right here including kitchenware, bed and bath linens. Like to cook? Please take advantage of my plentiful spices! The upper level (up 5 steps) features: Guest bath with shower and tub Master with queen size adjustable bed and en suite bathroom with shower Second bedroom with queen size bed with built in storage below Third bedroom is used now as an office but could be readily used as a bedroom. Large garage below has electronic door opener. Interior garage access to the house is 13 steps The DelNorte BART station is a 5 minute walk (down-hill), Bring a bike and you have all the transport you need to both get to UCBerkeley and around the town and campus not to mention the many miles of nearby scenic bike paths. A short stroll up the street is a lovely park with tennis courts and walking paths- Canyon Trail Park. All utilities are included in the rent. This means you can Wi-Fi, What'sApp, Netflix and Amazon video to your heart's delight. Potential consideration: yup, this is a hillside dwelling which means STEPS.
