The space
-------------
It's a tall two-story home that sits on a hill. An architect built the home for himself, it's private and expansive. We have a view of a private golf course. If you listen closely outside at night, you can hear the wolves howling at the Oakland Zoo. We love sitting on our "Cleopatra" lounge chair sipping our morning tea as we watch the sunrise over the hills. We live here part time, so it's a very cozy personal atmosphere in a spacious home (4,300 square feet). A gourmet kitchen with lots of appliances, gadgets, knives, and condiments. Just bring your food and you'll be able to cook whatever you want.
Great for two couples and/or a creative work time.
One bedroom has a king bed, the other with a queen. Both are high end memory foam mattresses (T&N and Essentia). Both bedrooms have their own bathroom, and there's a half bath upstairs near the great room/kitchen area.
If you happen to have a bird with you, you've just hit the jackpot. We have a very large parrot that goes to the bird hotel when we are not home. You are welcome to use her cages and perches.
Guest access
-------------
We recommend parking in our driveway. Plenty of street parking too. You will need a car, or take lots of Ubers.
Other things to note:
This is a residential community and quiet street. Visitors other than the guests listed on the reservation are not permitted. If you’d like us to consider a request for visitors, please send an inquiry with details.
We mainly live here. When we go out of town, we make the home available for short-term rental. This means the house is very cozy, not a sterile hotel setting. We have our bookcases, our art, our kitchen utensils, etc.
Please treat our home like you are visiting a favorite relative!
We have a huge refrigerator and freezer. We leave the first two shelves of the freezer available for you.
The way the house was built which is long and open. the roof will sometimes make a sound like a squirrel is walking on roof, but usually it's just the roof creating the sound.
There is a railing that creates a loft feeling between the first and second floor. The railing is not child or pet proofed. There’s a few photos of the railing so you can determine if the house would be safe for your family.
Our backyard neighbor has chickens and a rooster that sometimes crows between 8am and sundown. We can’t hear it from the master bedroom.
