NEIGHBORHOOD Located in the heart of North Temescal, everything you need is within walking distance: grocery stores, restaurants, parks, coffee shops, laundromats. Highlights include: Berkeley Bowl grocery store, Nick's Pizza, and Nomad Cafe right on the corner. TRANSPORTATION 5-minute walk to Ashby BART (Downtown SF in ~30 mins, Downtown Oakland in ~20, Downtown Berkeley in ~5). Multiple AC Transit bus stops nearby on Shattuck Ave. Easy street parking on a quiet, dead-end street. CONSIDERATIONS The apartment is on the older side and shows some normal wear and tear. Everything functions well, but if you're looking for brand new appliances and high end finishes, this may not be the best fit. We ask that you please keep noise levels low after 10pm for the sake of our neighbors. If you're a night owl, like to throw parties, work a night shift, etc, then sadly this is not the apartment for you. On-site laundry is not included, but there's a nicely maintained laundromat one block away that's open daily till 9 p.m. There's plenty of street parking available because we're located on a looped, dead end street. We've never had any issues getting a good spot. INTERESTED? Contact us to schedule an in-person tour.
