About the host
Hosted by Kristie
I’m a working professional with a husband and son. My husband is a chef, and my son is a young adult. I live in the Bay Area, love to travel, usually training for some kind of run, on a dragonboating team, and prefer mellow and low-key weekends and vacations. We enjoy sharing our peaceful and private tiny home in a hummingbird-filled yard.
Why they chose this property
We chose this neighborhood in Oakland’s Dimond District since it's a peaceful, residential neighborhood tucked in the foothills. It offers the best of both worlds — quiet, tree-lined streets and natural beauty, all within a vibrant city.
With views of the Oakland Hills, frequent hummingbird visits, and access to local cycling routes in the hills, parks, running trails, archery ranges, and horseback riding trails, it truly feels like an urban oasis.
This area enjoys a sunny microclimate, making it ideal for enjoying the outdoors year-round, while still being close to great food, culture, and community spots.
Centrally located, the commute times by car are reasonable: San Francisco ~35-45 mins; Lake Merritt 8 min. Bay Area bus lines 5 min walk.

What makes this property unique
Kolibrie Huis is a custom-designed, newly built 250 sq. ft. tiny home that offers a cozy, relaxing retreat within an urban oasis.
Set against the backdrop of the Oakland Hills, this serene space welcomes regular visits from hummingbirds and offers a sense of calm rarely found in the city. The custom-designed tiny home completed in December 2024 features a one-of-a-kind mosaic mural created by a local Oakland artist, a private patio, and a tranquil backyard — making it feel like a hidden escape in the heart of the East Bay.
We've always felt that there's a natural feeling of zen in this space. Being surrounded by nature, hummingbirds, bird sounds, the hills, cool breezes, and the signature redwoods soaring high above, there's a sense of something greater than ourselves out there.
