1 room in a in a 2-bedroom, 1-bath apt in Palo Alto opening around mid-March. It's a lovely spot in a small building with 6 units. Rent is $1450/month.

Location/Commute Info:

• Around the corner from California Ave. (For those unfamiliar with the area, Cal Ave. is home to many restaurants, a nice wine bar, a true dive bar, a solid farmers' market, and big chain as well as hole-in-the-wall coffee places.)
• Roughly equidistant from 101 and 280 (about 10 minutes to either)
• About one block off El Camino
• Caltrain: 5-minute walking distance to the California Ave. station
• GBus: El Camino @ Oxford stop is a block and a half away
• Across the street from the southern end of the Stanford campus (near Escondido Village grad student housing)

Space/Amenities:

• The living area is fully furnished and the kitchen is fully equipped.
• You will need your own bedroom furniture, although a very comfortable air bed is available if you need something to sleep on while getting settled in!
• The bedroom is big (14'6" x 11'1") with a substantial closet.
• The kitchen has an electric stove, oven, toaster oven, and dishwasher.
• The building has a well-maintained washer and dryer. There is also a laundromat around the corner for larger loads.
• Street parking with a permit (I can share details on pricing/parking situation.)

Situation perks:

• Fantastic landlord (out-of-your-hair but extremely responsive, kind, eminently reasonable)
• Delightful neighbors (a mix of singles and couples with young kids, mostly in their late-20s to late-30s)
• Really, I can't say enough about the location. I'm not moving to the city with a great former roommate because the location of this apartment just makes living here so pleasant.

Other:
The social pace of the apartment is dinner parties/game nights/watch parties.
The landlord has a strict no-smoking policy for the building. Also, no drugs, please.

The room is available for a one-year lease with month-to-month availability after that. The landlord will do a credit check and you will sign the lease. This is not a sublet.

If you could include some details about you (what you do, what you like to do, a bit about your schedule, and a list of quirks), that would be great. I'll respond to emails as quickly as possible, and am happy to give candid answers to whatever questions you may have.
