Currently there are 5 people residing here and you would be the 6th. Moving in would require 1st month rent AND 2X rent for a security deposit. Utilities are SHARED and often billed bi-monthly (roughly $150 per month). The common areas of the house include; The LIVING ROOM - with an ENTERTAINMENT CENTER (large TV/ CD/DVD/RECORD PLAYER/ TAPE/ PS3) - A GYM - (4 different CARDIO MACHINES/ INVERTER/FREE WEIGHTS); A very LARGE KITCHEN that has 3 refrigerators and all the cooking appliances you could need. You would share a whole fridge with one other person. The DINING ROOM is 17.5' x 14' and has beautiful chairs and table. There are (2) bathrooms. There is ON-SITE LAUNDRY. We have very SAFE ON-SITE PARKING and you would have your own designated spot - with room for visitors as well.

This area has been tastefully developed with a small private BEACH, a RIVER GAZEBO that seats 6 to 8, and a DECK overlooking the creek. There are lots of WILDLIFE that visit us (INCLUDING deer, ducks, heron, hawks, humming birds, turkeys, river otters, foxes and others).

A backyard patio with table, for outside dining, 3 grills (wood pellet, gas, and fire) and a shaded outdoor patio for relaxing (plus 2 hammocks). We also have a second patio overlooking the creek. Our CREEKSIDE HOME is practically a resort. It certainly a SLICE OF PARADISE, with special, cool PEOPLE who are talented, respectful, and cooperative! I'm looking for an individual who is responsible, interesting, quiet, and respects and appreciates the people and the FABULOUS space. The location is very convenient; to Berkeley/Richmond (80 or 580); to Oakland (80 or Caldicott tunnel); to Orinda (San Pablo Dam Rd); to Marin (Richmond parkway/bridge): to SF (bridge or ferry). Additionally, hi-ways 4 and 680 are close. BART stations (Orinda/El Cerrito) are 10/15 min DRIVE away. The location is secluded, you cant see the house from the street. However, there is a gas station, a market, a restaurant and bar within a 5 min WALK to the corner of Valley View and San Pablo Dam Road. There are many malls, 5 supermarkets, shops and restaurants within a 5 to 10 min DRIVE. I think its best to use my phone number and text me. I look forward to meeting you. Blessings! The shortest lease we can accept is 6 months. I would be happy to email you a copy of the lease if you are interested. The total move in cost is 3x rent.

We currently have 4 women and 1 man, There ages range from 26 to 61. There are mostly professionals. We all get along well.
