Quiet space, great location!
Spacious single room ADU with vaulted ceilings, queen bed, and natural light. Access to a large yard with beautiful views. A new private bathroom is just outside, steps away in the main house. Located in a quiet, safe neighborhood near Grand Lake Theater, Lake Merritt, Morcom Rose Garden, restaurants, and shopping. Minutes to Berkeley, Piedmont, downtown Oakland, and public transport to SF. Dedicated entrance to room. No kitchen - mini fridge, coffee pot, kettle included for your convenience.

Rockridge Garden Cottage
The cottage is newly remodeled as of March 2022 and now has its own kitchen and bathroom. It is a separate unit in my backyard with vaulted ceilings which gives a spacious feel and french doors that open onto the lush garden. Queen size high end natural organic fiber bed (Earthsake.com), with down comforter + 4 pillows. Dining table and stools. LCD TV, clothes valet, work desk and great internet. Its very quiet and my guests seem to love having a private retreat type space to themselves.

Private, Detached, Urban Creekside Studio.
This unique, well equipped, 1 Bed cute little studio (that we love) is detached and fenced off from our main house. It has a separate entrance through a side gate and it's own private rear deck, with a seating and dining area... that overlooks Sausal Creek and Dimond Park. The tall willow that grows along the creek gives the deck the perfect amount of privacy and with the tranquil sound of the creek flowing (not during dry season) you would almost forget you are in an urban city.
Luxury Rockridge Casita in Our Sunny Garden
** FEATURED in Sunset Magazine ** Our bright modern guest house with private access awaits you. Retreat from the city to our comfortable, clean casita. This lovely, light-filled space sits behind our family home, in our garden with fresh berries and lemons. Enjoy morning coffee at the wood farm table.

Charming Cozy Cottage in Eco-Garden Oasis
Our charming cottage is a relaxing retreat in the city! Our sweet cabin is small and cozy set in an expansive garden oasis. We offer a unique experience for those interested in a beautiful and tranquil escape in the heart of the city. The cottage is at the back of our large garden with views of our beautiful urban farm with a pond, chickens and goats! Families with up to 2 children are best suited for the loft because of the low ceiling. No more than 2 adults please.
