Vacation Rental Description
Located on a quiet, very safe, residential street in the North Berkeley Hills, this comfortable accommodation is up one flight of stairs, with private entrance.  
 
The tranquil, non-smoking room has hardwood floors and is fully furnished in calm, serene tones. There are plenty of windows and natural light. Kitchen, bath and dining area overlook a large vegetable garden and have a bit of a view of the Golden Gate Bridge, San Francisco Bay and Marin's Mt. Tamalpias in the distance. 
 
You'll hear the bells chiming from the U.C. Berkeley Campanile on the hour and the birds and squirrels the rest of the time. Later at night, you may run into a family of deer passing you along the street. 
 
The studio is perfect for a visiting professor or other calm, relaxed persons. Also great for hosting extra guests for the holidays or special family events, or anyone wanting the comforts of home for a short or extended stay. Owners live on the property in the main house.
