If you’d like to travel for a few days through 18th century England, the French countryside and the exotic East, this 1500 Sq ft home, 2BR/1BA, for 6, will have you swooning to Jazz while enjoying a Scotch. You will also love our 200 sq ft, sun-drenched, flower-filled deck. Bordering El Cerrito and centrally located, this home is close to BART and ideal for those wishing to explore UC Berkeley, San Francisco, Napa and Sonoma wineries and the Redwoods. Rich wood, exotic rugs and a stunning piano welcome you to a comforting interior. An eclectic mix of paintings, patterns and pairs lend the room a proper traditional feeling, while an enormous TV and cornucopia of music selection will please your eyes and ears. The Family room’s sectional and relational seating offers a splendid place for gatherings around the fireplace or a solo spot by the window to read. As you enter the charming kitchen, you’ll marvel at its amenities and want to create a scrumptious meal using oils, spices, pots and pans and every appliance we provide. In the morning, you may soak some rays on our flower-filled deck, drinking your French-pressed coffee. In the evening, you may adjourn to our front patio, turn on the fireplace and sip a local California libation. The queen bed in the Master bedroom will lull you to slumber after you explore the Bay by day. There is a queen bed in the guest bedroom. As well, there is an electric blow up queen mattress (may be used in the Family Room) and, of course, all linens and towels. Our ample Bathroom has a shower and a tub. We have a washer and dryer for your convenience as well. We love that our neighborhood is a secret, quiet gem in the middle of a bustling metropolis. We can hear and see the birds and the stars, interact with our super-friendly, community oriented neighbors and have access to diverse cuisines, cultures, architecture, geography, natural habitats and entertainment that surround us. Our gardener, Richard, will water the flowers on the porch daily for 10 minutes between 9AM-10AM. You may park in our Driveway or right in front of our home. BART, our subway, is less than a mile from our place. There are several bus lines nearby and bus #72 runs right by our street. We are near the intersection of hwy 80 and 580. If you feel like taking a ferry to SF, you can do so from Larkspur or Oakland.

    We enjoyed our stay in this unique house. The beds were comfy and it was very clean. The booklet with information was very helpful. If we were in the area, we would definitely stay again.

    Great house and neighborhood. Very spacious. Amenities were all great. Only downside was that the lockbox was very difficult to open.

    This home is immaculate and filled with thoughtful details from days gone by. We kept feeling like we were visiting a beloved family member! Part of what was so endearing about the home are the design elements that have been lost in most other homes are preserved and beautiful in this space. We loved it!

    We had a fantastic stay at this property! The home was exceptional—beautifully maintained, clean, and incredibly comfortable. Everything about it made our trip so easy, from the well-stocked kitchen to the cozy beds and thoughtful touches throughout. It truly felt like a home away from home. Communication with the host was seamless, and check-in was a breeze. We would absolutely stay here again and highly recommend it to anyone looking for a stress-free getaway!

    This home had many thoughtful little things that made it easy to stay there- tissues besides the bed, nice kitchen, printer in office, close to bart but quiet, place to park, and so on. It is as described- full of antiques and decorations. The bed was very comfortable, hot shower plus bathtub. Our stay was nice.

    Everything we needed for meal prep is available. Beds are comfortable. The back patio is a nice view while eating in the dining area. I just did not like taking the trash out to the street on trash day. In one of the rooms (not sure about the other room), plugs is hard to access for charging. There's an extension cord available but I did not see it until we're almost leaving. Instruction binder for the property just needs to add availability of extension cord. We enjoyed our stay here. We would come back.
