About this property

Entire place

You'll have the entire home to yourself and will only share it with other guests in your party.

Beautiful, relaxing home with natural light & beautiful views of San Francisco.


Listing Description

Quiet, peaceful home in the Richmond Hills, close to Berkeley, Oakland, San Francisco, Marin County, and Wine Country. This house offers private entry, plenty of free parking, and is close to BART. Child, family, and pet-friendly. Great wifi for working from home.

Whether you are looking for a weekend getaway or a place to settle in for a few weeks with your family, this calm and comfortable home is the perfect setting.

Use it as a home base for exploring the many sites and cities the Bay Area offers. Drive to wine country, or take BART into the city.

Staying local? Explore Wild Cat Canyon, a beautiful regional park within a 15-minute walk with multiple trails and eucalyptus trees. Walk to the local market or check out the many restaurants and cafes in the surrounding area.

Need a relaxing day indoors? Read in a living room full of natural light, with large windows showcasing the San Francisco Bay and city skyline. Fruit trees adorn the front patio, and a garden oasis promises a sun-drenched afternoon. The three bedrooms are furnished with comfortable beds, and one of the rooms can easily function as an office.

Note: The in-law unit (downstairs, separate entrance) is occupied by my daughter and our golden doodle. They are quiet and respectful and can help with any questions or needs you have during your stay. The backyard is not for guests use.

Neighborhood Description

The East Richmond Hills neighborhood is a peaceful and friendly neighborhood that is close to the freeway and BART, yet feels like a hidden gem off the beaten path. Here are some of the beautiful places our neighborhood has to offer:

Dog-friendly parks:
Wildcat Canyon Regional Park https://www.ebparks.org/parks/wildcat/ - 1 mile
Mira Vista Field (entrance on Zinn St.) - 0.2 miles
Point Isabel - 5 miles. While a bit farther, this is a dog and human paradise where dog owners can enjoy coffee and snacks while their pups socialize)
Food and drinks:
Arlington market - 0.3 miles
Catahoula Coffee - 1.4 miles
Dozens of restaurants with 4 stars and above on San Pablo Ave - 1.2 miles
Our favorite cafes and restaurants are on Solano Ave in Albany, CA - 5.5 miles
Sightseeing
San Francisco downtown - 16 miles. Although traffic in Bay Area can slow down access to the city, it only takes 20-30 min to drive to San Francisco when roads are clear. There are two ways to drive to the city: via the Bay Bridge and via the Richmond / Golden Gate bridges. This helps when there is heavy traffic on one of the routes. BART is also a great way to get to the city and the station is 5 min drive from the house. It is also accessible by bus.
UC Berkeley - 10 miles
Marin County - 16 miles
Napa Valley - 30 miles
Six Flags Discovery Kingdom - 18 miles

As a frequent traveler myself, I appreciate places like my home that allow you to get the feel of real life and avoid tourist traps.

This home was perfect for me being able to be 3 minutes away from my 90 year old mother and to spend a fabulous Thanksgiving at my mom’s. The place was clean and so quiet and relaxing. And my well trained 3 y/o big dog loved the morning walks down the street then the walk to Alvarado Park when we were at my mom’s ( a block from Alvarado Park).I would def book again!
