The Muse is a vibrant group house located on the border of Oakland and Berkeley
Providing affordable housing and a sense of place
Promoting active participation, collaborative decision-making and tenant self-governance
Living spaces open directly to ground level garden and outdoor areas
Outdoor passageways connect two buildings
Unique arrangement of units and common spaces throughout
Initially started as a 3-Year affordable housing experiment in 2008, the Muse continues to thrive as a vibrant home to 14 creative individuals choosing to live and work in community.
Conveniently located 2 blocks from the Berkeley border on Shattuck Avenue, 4 blocks from Ashby BART, 1.2 miles from U.C. Berkeley, walking distance to the Berkeley Bowl, Starry Plough, and La Pena cultural center, and across the street from the Nomad and Café and Damask Rose Coffee Shop. The #18 bus runs right down Shattuck, several other buses are very close by, and a bike station is a block away on Alcatraz.
The one-story, Hacienda-style arrangement of the Muse offers a variety of outdoor seating and gathering areas directly off of living spaces, and promotes a cozy community feeling. The two buildings house 14 unique rooms / suites of various sizes and amenities, including a spacious shared kitchen, a shared living room, on site coin-op laundry facilities, a great garden for growing vegetables and flowers, a bbq area, and a spacious patio for outdoor gathering.
It's been a transformative 5 years at the Muse … It's hard to say goodbye … Thanks for being such responsive and supportive landlords through many ups and downs!

It's been a pleasure living at the Muse…I really have appreciated having you two as landlords. You're really amazing landlords and I wanted to thank you for everything. For the fixes, for the accommodations, for being empathetic to our particular situations, for the garden fixes, for caring so deeply about our community, for the labor of love you put into the Muse!

We want to thank you for allowing us to make this community our home for the last several years. This is a special place and I'm pretty sure it'll be very difficult, if not impossible, to find anything like it.
