Beautiful architect-designed loft with skylights near transportation hub.

Description

We are two retired artist-educators who will be visiting friends and family in Berlin for 3 months. We are looking for one quiet person or a couple to rent our architect-designed open-floor-plan live-work space (1200 sf) with lots of skylights – some ventilating -- and green views, 2 floors, off-street gated parking, and a 2nd floor balcony overlooking trees and gardens. There are partial views of San Francisco from the top floor, and of the Oakland Port from the balcony. There is one bathroom on the top floor, near the main sleeping area. There’s a dog-park ½ block away. For those with limited mobility, there is a stairlift to the main (2nd) floor. However, there are more stairs up to the main sleeping area. There is no washer/dryer in the unit, but there are laundry services nearby. There are cafes and a brewery at the Prescott Market within close walking distance, and an adjacent open-air street market on Sundays. The unit is part of a 4-unit loft-condo complex with helpful, friendly co-owners. It's a beautiful and very secure space on a quiet, green neighborly block in historic West Oakland. It’s a 3 minute walk to the West Oakland Bart Station and many municipal and inter-city bus-lines stop nearby. West Oakland is the best East Bay station for quick travel to San Francisco -- and to most Bay Area destinations. We are looking for people who need housing for 2-3 months. If you have a car, we can arrange for off-street gated parking. If you don’t have a car, this is one of the best locations for using public transportation. There are frequent Bart trains to Berkeley, and San Francisco is literally a 9-minute Bart ride away. Pets are negotiable. Cleaning service is negotiable. Dates are somewhat flexible.
