A private bedroom in a newly renovated 6-bedroom, 2.5-bathroom house in East Palo Alto is available to rent, for $1350 per month. Although the move-in date is flexible, I would prefer a move-in date of late June/early July.

The room will be furnished with very new Ikea furniture that I purchased upon moving in. You must agree to buy all the furniture from me at the cost of $450 (non-negotiable). It will include a bed, mattress, desk, chair, lamp, rug, 2 fans, a chest of drawers, a large cabinet, a bedside table, and some more smaller furniture. (See pictures).

The house itself is fully furnished, and has everything you would need in the kitchen as well, making it ideal for a low-effort, low-cost move-in. We also have a really nice TV and keyboard in the living room, and a really nice backyard with a climbing and barbeque grill! I've lived here for 2 years now and have loved every bit of it. It is truly a great place!

Our location:

• 7 minute bike/car ride to University Avenue in Downtown Palo Alto
• 15 minute bike/car ride to Stanford
• 3 minute drive from closest US101 exit
• 10 minute bike ride from Facebook Menlo Park Campus

House amenities:

• Large common spaces, wooden floors, and a living room with tall ceilings and fireplace. Front and back yard with a deck and grill.
• Open kitchen with dining area and couch / TV alcove.
• In-house washer/dryer.
• Great privacy, house is set back from the street.
• Outdoor storage shed for bikes and larger gear.
• Off-street parking space (located in front of the unit), if you have a car.
• Utilities and internet are split evenly between housemates, in addition to rent.
• No pets, unfortunately.

We are young professionals and Stanford affiliates working in biology and economics. Although the house has 6 bedrooms, it has been relatively empty since COVID as a lot of our roommates moved back home!
