This is a 1 bedroom, 1 bath Midcentury stand-alone ADU, built in 1965. It shares a backyard with the owner-occupied "front house."
The "back house" is a serene, light-filled oasis in a park-like setting. It has new oak wood floors, a newly designed kitchen with new full-size appliances, and a separate entrance to a shared backyard. The "front house" is owner occupied.
The El Cerrito Hillside area is quiet, beautiful and full of good vibes! We are 5 minutes from Bart, 8 minutes from the 80/580, and a 10 minute drive to Berkeley.
We are a quiet family, tenant must be mellow as well and OK with dogs (there is a large, extremely cute Bernerdoodle in residence). Cats OK, dogs considered based on suitability with ours.
First/last month's rent and security deposit due at signing. Pets negotiable. No smoking. Owner pays all utilities including PG&E, high speed internet, water, trash collection. Tenant must be OK with dogs.
