We are looking to fill one bedroom in our 5-bedroom, 3.5 bath house. The house is a spacious (2300 sq. ft.), 2-story Redwood City home in a quiet neighborhood close to 101, downtown Redwood City, and shopping centers on El Camino. It is in the vicinity of railroad tracks, but we never hear train noises.

The four of us have been living together for 1-4 years, and one housemate is moving to the east coast. We have lived at this location for over 3 years and have a solid relationship with the homeowner.

• Preference given to those who can begin paying rent on September 3 and stay for at least 8 months (early termination fee applies)

Utilities and internet have ranged from $50-$100 per month, mainly depending on sprinkler usage, with solar panels offsetting some of the electric bill.

4 guys in our 20s and 30s:

ABOUT YOU

We want to maintain a respectful, friendly environment where we occasionally host dinners with friends or significant others, so we are looking for someone with similar goals.
