Master with Private Entrance in 4Br2Ba Mountain View Home - $1400

We are a house of three SHC workers (male) that will have 1 room available. We are looking for a young professional male looking for a friendly and warm home environment. We are flexible about the start date but would want someone to join us ideally by July 1st. We are looking for a year long commitment although we are open to discussing what timing works best for you. Rent is $1,400. We all split utilities (top tier WiFi, electric, gas, water) consistently around $60-$100 a month.

This is a GREAT place to live and could not be more happy with the location.

Google and NASA are a 15 minute bike ride away (per prior roommate times) and downtown Mountain View is 10 minutes (or 5 minutes by car). The Cal-Train station downtown is extremely reliable and perfect for those looking to commute to Stanford campus or San Jose. We usually ride the train to Stanford (15 minutes from our door to the Palo Alto station) or carpool together. We are right next to highway 85 that links up with the 101 to get you to campus within 15-20 minutes depending on traffic.

Downtown also has some great bars and restaurants, we are working our way through trying all of them. In the immediate walking area around us there are a couple shopping centers with a Mexican market, Mexican restaurant, donut shop and cafe that we can highly recommend, as well as a 711 and liquor store for any late night runs. The closest large grocery store is a Safeway within a 5 minute drive, although we tend to make the 10 minute trip to San Antonio shopping center Trader Joes/Target/Whole Foods or Costco.

The neighborhood is extremely peaceful and quiet with excellent neighbors and ample (free) street parking in addition to our drive way. If you're into the outdoors Stephen's Creek trail is right nearby and is a wonderful run that links up with the Bay area trails to give you a wonderful view of the water.

The Space
We are part of a 2 unit property. We share a common drive way that parks 4 cars comfortably.

Our unit is 4 bedroom and 2 bath. It comes equipped with a smart lock, smart thermostat, Wifi speakers throughout, central heating (no cooling but we all have small AC units for the summer time), washer-dryer, and stainless steal appliances. Pictured is kitchen space, living room, and the master room we are offering (which will be unfurnished), which has its own private entrance with its own set of keys. The room has large a closet with plenty of storage space.

The common space is where we spend most of our time together and we just bought new furniture for it. The coaches are super comfortable with cushions we made ourselves too. The large window lets in so much light - it's a great study and work space as well. The big screen TV is paired with a new surround sound system, a chromecast ultra with Disney Plus, Hulu No Ads, HBO Now, and our personal Plex server with a collection of over 600 movies. We always have a whiteboard with a list of movies we will be watching or rewatching over the next month. We tend to have shoes off in the house as well to keep things clean.

We love to cook and therefore have made the most additions to the kitchen. All the appliances were new for our move-in and all function great. We've added the center island with hidden storage shelves that we use as both a cooking space and breakfast table. We also added in two additional shelves to keep our most used ingredients and cooking tools in easy reach. Not pictured are the instant pot, stand mixer, magic bullet, emulsion blender, and the pride of our kitchen a new air-fryer/convection oven/toaster that we absolutely love.

The backyard gets the most use in the summer, particularly the barbell rack that is usually covered with a canopy to keep the sun away during your workout. There is also plenty of seating space around our fire pit. We are working on getting some more patio furniture for some outdoor barbecues and dinners. The washer-dryer is also in the backyard within a small shed. The front yard is made up of red gravel and all the trees and shrubs are taken care of by a landscaper that is provided by the landlord.

Your Roommates
We come from Los Angeles, New York, and North Carolina. We have plenty of gross medical stories and trivia. We love video games and Smash Bros game nights are a usual. As you can gather, we also love movies! When circumstances are COVID-free, weekly trips to the AMC theater and In-n-Out (within 10 minutes of our place) occur and we always have space for anyone in the house. Two of us are musicians (though we both use electric instruments with headphones so don't worry about a loud drummer in the house) and love talking about music. We are all really easy going and tend to help each other out as much as possible with chores and maintaining a clean space - we would like you also to help maintain a clean environment. We want our new roommate to feel welcome and part of the house. You are welcome to having guests or SO's visit and suggesting ways we can improve the space to fit your needs.

Please reach out with any questions and if you would like a Facetime/Zoom tour of the house.
