Derby Street

Located on the second floor of a lovely Victorian-style house at Derby and MLK, the apartment offers a calm and happy atmosphere with lots of light and fresh air. The location is incredibly convenient, with easy access to the Ashby Bart, Berkeley Bowl, the 12 bus, and we have a corner store. The campus is a 20-minute walk away or a 10-minute bike ride. The apartment would only be shared between you and me. It’s a 3-bedroom place, but I’d like to keep one room free for occasional visitors or as a shared office space. There’s a great living room, a big kitchen, office space, a shared laundry room, and even an outdoor space with a fire pit—ideal for relaxing evenings and fun gatherings with friends. The apartment comes fully furnished, so you won’t have to worry about buying furniture. The move-in cost includes the first and last month’s rent and a 1-month security deposit. Of course, the landlord will conduct a credit check, and we’ll sign a sublease agreement for everyone’s peace of mind.

I’m a professional working for a sustainability non-profit, originally from Colombia, and UC Berkeley Alumni. I am passionate about yoga, Zumba, gardening, painting, camping, dancing, tennis, and spending quality time with friends. I’ve been lucky to form strong friendships with most of my roommates in my previous living situations. While I expect us to be independent, I would like to foster a friendly and harmonious living environment where we can connect beyond sharing rent. 🤗 It is ideal for a fellow professional in their 30s, a postdoc, researcher, or visiting scholar- seeking a similar friendly and sociable living situation. Cleanliness is a priority for me, so I’m looking for someone who also values a tidy and well-organized living space. Together, we can maintain the apartment’s charm and keep it sparkling clean! Women, minorities, and internationals are welcome! 🌍🌈
