Community Living in North Berkeley

Arch St is a beautiful renovated 9-bedroom 4-bathroom coliving home in Berkeley’s famous foodie district near North Shattuck Ave. It combines modern design with the art-deco charm of the 70’s. The large living room is a cozy space for playing piano and singing by the wood burning fireplace. The kitchen is newly renovated with an open design and stainless steel appliances. The beautiful front yard leads up to a front porch with quaint & comfortable outdoor seating – the perfect space to enjoy your morning coffee. For the creative and adventurous, the basement is one part creative workshop and one part indoor storage for bikes and camping gear.

Arch St is only 2 blocks from Rosewood Hearth, another OpenDoor community rich with opportunities for collaboration on community events, family dinners, and new friendships.
