For a family with children the unit is a rare opportunity to be in desirable residential neighborhood close to clean, safe parks, playgrounds, tennis/basketball courts and short walking distance to outstanding public (Oxford, King) and private (School of Madeline) schools. For a group of professional friends/scholars seeking common space the unique layout of the flat allows for it to be conveniently divided into two or three distinct private living quarters, each having its own private access to the outside and the common kitchen. The flat is also less than a mile from the UC Berkeley main campus and is readily accessible on safe, walkable streets or by bus just a few blocks away. Rent varies according to the type of occupancy. The base rent listed is $4000 for a family (i.e. up to 2 adults over the age of 18 years old and their children). For two unrelated adults (i.e., two different families), the base rent is $4250. Each adult in excess of two is an extra $250 per month, up to a maximum of 6 occupants (including children) in the unit. Each adult wanting to be tenant must fill out a Rental Application and if needed, a financially responsible and liable co-signer to fill out a Cosigner application. Rent also covers garbage/recycling fees and includes use of high speed business grade (Comcast) Internet including Ethernet and wireless access points. Costs for other utilities (gas, electric, water) are divided proportionately by building tenants (children count as 1/2) as there is only one common meter (note: historical useage data shows total monthly utilities average less than $75 per person). There is a dedicated parking spot also reserved for this unit so you don't have to worry about street parking.
