Hello! I am looking for someone to take over my Palo Alto lease sometime April - August (with possibility to renew long-term. You would be taking over my bedroom in a 6 bedroom, 3 bath home in Midtown.
Cost: $1518. This is a great deal for the location.
Location: Across from Mitchell Park (has pickleball, tennis, soccer fields, etc.). 15 minutes from 3 grocery stores: Safeway, Piazza's, and Grocery Outlet. 10 minute drive from Downtown Palo Alto. I did not have a car for my first 2 years and enjoyed getting most of my errands done within 10-30 minute walking distance (I do love walking though lol). Over the years, my roommates and I have also enjoyed the short commute to Stanford, Tesla, Google, Meta, and Lockheed. The area is very safe and quiet at night.
Unique Features: Turf area, plum tree, lemon tree, pomegranate tree, apple tree, bbq grill, patio area, cute lil swing, huge living room, garage with tons of storage, open concept kitchen + dining area, 2 fridges, individual HVAC units in each bedroom, and rose garden. I had so much fun picking fruits to share and picking flowers for bouquets.
Your Setup: My bedroom is one of the largest in the house and comes a window that looks out across the street toward the park and a large closet. I can comfortably fit a queen bed, desk, bookshelf, and plants, with room to do yoga. You would share a clean and modern bathroom upstairs with 2 other people. There is a master bathroom, which my roommate Trevor is kind enough to share when he's not home + there is a shared bathroom downstairs.
Management: My landlord and her property manager Ed are very responsive. Ed responds often within 10-15 minutes of us texting him, and always follows up to make sure our requests are addressed properly.
The People: The best part! You will have 5 roommates. We have a work hard, play hard mentality. It's quieter during worknights, but we love getting together during breaks and weekends. Some fun activities we've done include wine nights, trips to Hawaii and Seattle, going to Outside Lands, Tahoe trips, camping trips, ice skating, throwing a house prom. My roommates are funny, ambitious, multifaceted, and kind. I'm sure you'll find at least one of them with mutual interests! For example, my roommates will play tennis, golf, or train for running events together.
We're in Search Of: An awesome roommate who is respectful, clean, outgoing, and kind! We'd love for you to be part of our get-togethers.
Please let me know if you have any questions/are interested. Thank you :)
