This is a very charming, beautifully furnished, immaculate, and sunny two-story home with an upstairs Rental Flat and the owner's Flat downstairs. The home is located on a dead-end street at a lagoon, so there is a peaceful water view from upstairs. It is in a very quiet neighborhood. Parking in the driveway is reserved for one (1) guest's automobile. Visiting guests just drop off and pick up. The Flat is 1200 sq.ft and is quite spacious with beautiful hardwood flooring. There are two large bedrooms both with pillow-top queen mattresses. Can accommodate 4-5 guests with a 2-day minimum stay. The bathroom is also quite large.

There is a separate water closet next to the bathroom with a new toilet. Gorgeous diamond pane windows with wood blinds throughout. Forced air heating and ceiling fans in most rooms.

What makes this Flat so desirable is the privacy you can have, if there is more than one guest. The two bedrooms allow that and also the small office area off the white bedroom for a quiet place to work as it has a door that closes. Everyone can have a place of privacy to read, take a nap, have a private telephone conversation, etc. There is a Firestick in the Living Room for many additional movie choices and a DVD on the side of the TV in the Livingroom, and a TV in 1 of the bedrooms. WiFi is provided. There are also two luggage racks in the walk-in closet. The backyard is available in the Gazebo for a quiet place to read, sit, and have coffee in the morning, afternoon wine, etc. No type of parties or cookouts is allowed due to adjacent neighbors.

A walk to the beach in the morning or evening to view the skyline of San Francisco and the evenings' gorgeous sunsets makes this island special.

There is quick, easy access to all major freeways, 20 minutes from UC Berkeley campus, and many excellent restaurants on College Ave and Telegraph Ave, and nearby Jack London Square on the Bay, also within a short distance from Alameda to Oakland or Berkeley.
