I nice home in the heart of Berkeley

Our home is a free standing two bedroom 1 bath house. We are a family of three. We do have a driveway for parking and there is ample street parking as well. We have nice small backyard for outdoor dining or just hanging out depending on how the weather is. It is a pretty quiet and safe community here.

Although we are in the city of Albany Berkeley is less then a half a mile from where we reside. We are about a mile from BART which can take you anywhere in the Bay Area pretty much. You can take a nice ride on BART and head to San Francisco and takes approximately 20 minutes. We are located a couple blocks from Solano Avenue which has lots of restaurants, shopping and bars. It is a local kind of community so every shop is unique. The Berkeley Hills are just up the way from us where you will find an amazing regional park known as Tilden Regional Park (btw it is HUGE), there is a Lawrence Hall Science Museum close and of course the UC Berkeley campus and downtown Berkeley are extremely close. Hop on the freeway and you can explore lots of other unique areas around the Bay Area. There is also a nice public library kitty corner from where we reside. You can never really get bored just walking around and exploring.

We are both working professionals who love to travel when we have the time. We do have a three year old but not pets. We have done a house swap with someone in NYC once (not through this site) and it was perfect. We are very open to travel to new areas. It really depends on when someone is looking to exchange as we need some advance notice since we both work and have a three year old.
