Marco's room

Oakland, CA 94611

Lovely room in Oakland hills house! We are looking for a fun, compassionate, creative, responsible housemate to join our beautiful home on July 1st who can commit to at least one year. The room has a direct bay-facing view and its own access to the balcony! The room comes unfurnished, bathroom is shared with one other person. The house is a Bay Area gem tucked up in the hills of Oakland and includes: 7 bedrooms 5 bathrooms Large kitchen Large living and dining space Garage storage space Gas fireplace Central heating Free in-unit laundry Front patio and backyard w/ BBQ and ample gardening Back deck with a view of both bridges If you like hiking, there are several regional parks within a 5min drive from the house including Sibley Volcanic Preserve, Huckleberry, and Redwood Regional Park. Downtown Oakland is a 15min drivel, Walnut Creek is a 15min drive, downtown San Francisco is a 25 min drive away with no traffic and Bart is a 10min drive. It’s an amazing place for anyone looking for a bit more nature, yet still wants to be close to the city. You need a car or electric vehicle to live up here, as the roads are steep and windy without sidewalks Our ideal roommate has:

• Great communication skills
• Experience living with others
• Good energy to contribute to the house
• Bonus points: a green thumb for our garden in the backyard or loves to bake :) We share the kitchen and common spaces, have short monthly house meetings, and occasional house dinners or movie nights. Everyone has an assigned chore (or two) and manages one bill. We welcome house guests and occasional parties. Even though there are seven of us, the house always feels spacious and is usually fairly quiet. We are a busy bunch and mostly do our own thing, yet we are really looking for a roommate who contributes to the culture and community of the home.
