About this property

Brand New Cottage In Great Berkeley Neighborhood.

Lovingly designed and built, with peaked ceilings, gas fireplace, radiant heat floors and wooden windows. Private patio area. Bedroom #1 with queen size bed. Bedroom #2/den has couch that converts to full-size bed. Day bed in living room has twin mattress. Full size appliances, fully equipped kitchen. Washer and dryer in cottage.

Walking distance to College Avenue shops and restaurants, UC Berkeley and BART. Parking space available, but many people come without a car. Elmwood neighborhood has a library, bank, movie theater, 2 bookstores and many great restaurants and shops. Great location for visiting Berkeley, or as a base for exploring San Francisco and northern California.

Quaint Guest Cottage
This place was exactly as pictured and was the ideal set up for me, my husband, and my father-in-law during our visit. We would stay here agin. Patty was a pleasure to deal with

Perfect neighborhood.
First time in SF and Berkeley was the right decision. Gardens in the neighborhood are spectacular everywhere. So much fun to walk and observe, no noise, no stress. The place needs a deep cleaning, some chairs are just too old and far from clean. Finally, this is not a brand new cottage as stated; however, the location is great in a beautiful neighborhood.

Serene getaway
Patty is a lovely host, and the cottage was quiet, spacious, and cozy! The high ceilings make the space airy and bright. You can tell that the cottage was put together with thoughtfulness and love in the details. I hope to be back sometime!

About the host

Hosted by Patty Reidenbach

Host profile image
Recently retired L&D RN. Born in San Francisco and raised in Berkeley (next door to this location). Two sets of my great-great-grandparents came in the gold rush, and I help preserve my great-parents house, which is an Oakland landmark.

Why they chose this property

Berkeley combines a world-class university, a lively history of social change, great beauty, a temperate climate, restaurants of every kind and and a wide selection of cultural events. It spoiled me for living anywhere else ( though I did try).

What makes this property unique

I built this cottage with myself in mind, and I plan to live there when I'm older. I made sure it felt spacious despite its small size, and had lots of interesting details.
