THE HOME This sunny and very stylish modern home (built ~9 years ago) is super unique with clean lines, extra high ceiling, oversized windows providing tons of sun and greenery, an open floor plan, awesome radiant heat, and generous storage. Living area opens with double doors directly onto the garden and yard. This special 675 sq ft home is behind the main house on a quiet street, and with friendly "co-housing-ish" neighbors. Dishwasher, full kitchen, full bath, washer/dryer (hookups), and 5 closets/ storage areas are within the home. The living/kitchen area is surrounded by the garden and yard, and the cozy bedroom (10 by 8 1/2) features massive windows facing south and overlooks garden boxes. OUTDOORS: From your living room/kitchen, open the modern ceiling-height glass double doors to step out a grass backyard with hot tub, outdoor shower, and fruit trees, and a private area among the redwoods and bamboo. Several irrigated garden boxes have veggies growing, and ready to take over if you wish. Or head upstairs to the huge deck above with BBQ, sink, lights and heat. Per neighbor agreement, the outdoors have quiet hours after 10. WARM FLOORS! Wake up to a warm floor with radiant heat. This home shares NO air/ventilation with anyone else. COMMUNITY VISION - The "Co-housing-ish" setup of these homes is inspired by co-housing where peers enjoy the privacy of their own spaces (and kitchens) but stay in communication, share some resources (gardens, hot tub, often guest rooms), and try to be be friendly and find occasion to hang out. In the past we have also shared many meals, beers, and conversations. Some past co-residents have been social and engaging, others were more quiet/reserved and low-drama, and both of those worked well. WHO ELSE IS HERE Currently, the long-term residents are all 50s plus, with shared interests around social entrepreneurship, dance & electronica, medicinal therapy, burning man and related communities. And one of the two tiny houses on property is currently for "workaway guests" here from other countries, who work on the yard, garden, cleaning or maintenance. One home has (two men- friends- in their 50s , plus the two part-time kids one of them (the proprety owner, a former tech entrepreneur now focused on democtratic innovation / deliberative democracy advocacy). The other 2BR unit as a couple who met through burningman and while wise in years, still manage to hit the festival circuit. He manages a non profit bringing assisted therapy to people who wouldn't otherwise afford it / or have access to it; the other is a reporter for several japanese media orgs. THE NEIGHBORHOOD: Near Lake Merritt in the Adam's Point neighborhood, on a very quiet street yet only ~10 minutes walk from many restaurants, the lake, WholeFoods/TJoes, coffee, transit, library etc. (walk score 87). GARDEN: 4 huge garden boxes have irrigation that was installed and just needs a refresh - we're offering $50/mo discount for someone committed to making those bloom. (We've loved the garden in past, and miss it.) The property features a hot tub, many fruit trees (plum, kiwi, mulberry), a grassy area, large deck and bbq, a long driveway, and currently play equipment in the front yard. WANT MORE ROOM? A second, enclosed and insulated ~6x10' room is available for $250/mo, across the yard at the back of the main house. Office, guest room, crafts or storage. (Your co-residents have also offered their extra guest rooms often in past.) PREFER FURNISHED? Some furnishings are available, likely most of the essentials can be provided for loan. GUEST ROOMS are usually available as part of the co-housing-ish. PET FRIENDLY: We'd welcome a dog or dog-tolerant cat in this unit, possibly with a rent adjustment depending on the animal and impact (noise & wear/tear etc). START? Flexible. This unit is available from September 1st 2026. Plan on 12 month term, and thereafter continuing if we're all happy - and breakable anytime March to September. Utilities are currently $150/mo per person which includes shared internet, heat, electric, water, garbage and w/d hookups in this unit, plus access to another washer/dryer (up some stairs in a common area). DOWNSIDE This is not for those who are sound-sensitive. While it's normally very quiet, sound from the unit above does occasionally bleed down. Sound sleepers welcome! PARKING: Optional $150/mo for off-street parking, and on-street parking is plentiful especially by day. Long driveway with lots of occasional guest parking. Some shuffling may required (rarely in the past, but based on the car usage schedule). INTERESTED? Please tell me about yourself and what you're looking for that has you interested, as well as your preferred times to see it. This property has privacy with some community-focused elements so we are selective about co-residents. We'll do a 6-12 month term to make sure we're all happy then switch to an annually renewing lease with free cancellation anytime from spring to fall (a bit more restrictive in winter, when it's harder to find future co-residents).
