The spacious living room, SONY XBR LCD TV with Comcast cable connection, kitchen, washer and dryer are all shared, and there is also high speed Internet access (Camcast Cable) in each room.

The house has 3 bedrooms, 1 of which one is available for rent starting July 1, 2011 for $675 (utilities included). Each room is furnished with good furniture, including a 32" SONY XBR LCD TV. The other room is occupied by a Stanford alumnus. The house has a nice atmosphere of learning and there is a mini in-house book collection.
