About this property

Knock Knock Knocking on heaven's door

New, modern, immaculate 2BR/2BA (sleeps 6) Oakland hills gem, Bay views, spectacular proximity to UC Berkeley, SF, Silicon Valley, Redwoods, Napa wineries and Calistoga hot springs.

Eyeing San Francisco Bay, amid Eucalyptus groves, this light filled abode is the perfect combination of serenity and proximity.

The space

This architect designed home away from home offers a master bedroom with a comfortable California King bed, tasteful and vibrant decor, a master suite complete with an ADA shower/Jacuzzi combination, walk-in closet and reading nook. We supply all linens and a set of towels per guest. This room overlooks the deck.

The guest bedroom has a serene feel, a queen size bed, an armoire, a dresser and high windows. Adjacent to this room is another full-sized bathroom with tub. Radiant heat is abound throughout the home in the gorgeously colored flooring.

The kitchen has all the amenities one would need, such as a large fridge, dishwasher,stove/oven, toaster oven, coffee-maker (we even hook you up with regular/decaf/ sugar/honey/splenda and creamers), food processor, pots/pans and all the dishes, glasses, utensils and silverware you will need. You may enjoy your morning Joe at the kitchen island or overlooking the bay on the deck. We provide olive oil, balsamic vinegar, spices and more, so you won’t need to buy those.

The open concept dining room/Living room combo allows for relational seating. The dining table accommodates 6 guests and the 51” Smart TV has Netflix and Hulu. The sectional opens to a comfortable full size bed should you so desire. The views will make you feel like indeed, you are close to heaven.

You may enjoy a local bubbly on the deck at sunset and then throw a steak on the BBQ, while you get situated on the outdoor seating.

We created this lovely space for you to enjoy, relax and return. We think you will!

Guest access

Guests have the apartment and deck to themselves (owner lives in unit above). Shared, free laundry facilities. Owner needs exclusive use of driveway and garage but that's no problem because there's plenty of free street parking in front and adjacent to the house.

Interaction with guests

We would love to interact with our guests as much or as little as they would like! We are the folks from Book a Nook, a relational, compassionate short-term property management company. We love to nurture our guests and provide stellar experiences, which keep our guests returning for more!

Other things to note

Please note that the owner lives on the top unit and prefers a quiet atmosphere.

Overall, the unit was clean and as listed. However check-in was less than smooth.
A month in I sent a follow up inquiry to the listing that never received a response. On day of check in, I was expecting an email with details on how to get into the unit. At check-in time, I still had not received the details. The contact number for the property went straight to voicemail. I called it at least 10 times. I finally tried contacting HomeAway for help, when finally the co-host responded back. This definitely didn't kick start the visit off in the right way. However, the listing was clean, well-appointed, and they had some snacks/treats to welcome us for the stay.

The level was very clean and modern.
The view was beautiful and the level was very clean. It is not a single home and the inside stairs are odd.

About the host

Hosted by Richard Janzen

Host profile image
I'm an Architect and I design this house for not only my self and my family, but for entertainment purposed for friends, family and community functions.

Why they chose this property

I chose to build and design and build a house here because of the natural beauty of the hills, the beautiful views of the bay and the abundance of trees, natural landscaping and proximity to nature.

What makes this property unique

The combination of views of the trees in the hills with the waters of the San Francisco bay, make for a unique blend of mother nature with a closeness to the urban life of the bay area.
