House in the scenic hills of Berkeley, California

High on a hill above the San Francisco Bay in a quiet residential neighborhood our house has a sunny garden on the west side and a redwood deck with a hot-tub on the east side. The east side has great sylvan views of Tilden Park which has miles of hiking trails, a lake for swimming, little train and carousel for the children, and a lovely 18 hole golf course. It's not far down the hill to shopping and some of the country's best restaurants. University of California is a mile southwest. It's a short drive (or bus/subway) to San Francisco and about an hour to Napa Valley or Sonoma Valley wine country. Four hours drive will put you at Lake Tahoe or Yosemite National Park, two scenic wonders of the western USA. We are very interested in ideas for exchanges in Italy, Austria, Iceland, Portugal, Palm Springs, or Cambridge, England but we are also open to other offers. We are retired and have a rather flexible schedule for the right exchange opportunity. We can often arrange a non-simultaneous exchange since we have other housing options nearby.

About the neighborhood

On top of the north Berkeley hills. To the west is the San Francisco Bay, which you can see from the drive way. To the east is Tilden Park, thousands of acres of open space. The neighborhood is quiet and residential. The public bus comes close to our house roughly every hour, but doesn't run late at night.

The exchange worked out very well for us. It was a non-simultaneous exchange so we got to meet our exchange partners while they were staying in our house before we took off for Sweden. They were very helpful and we love the apartment and the location, helped by good advice about where to shop, eat, and tour.

A beautiful house close to everything in Berkeley, California very near San Francisco - We can't make plans yet for 2025 because of health issues, but we hope to be able to travel, in the summer.
