Hello all,

We're looking to fill a 1 large, master bedroom with walk-in closet in a 7Br/6Ba 4000+ sq ft home in Midtown Palo Alto. We are looking for two housemates ($1100/person), or one housemate for the same rent of $2200/month is also welcome. This is ideal location for anyone commuting to Facebook, Google, or Stanford!

Room Description:

• 200 sq ft, private bathroom connected to the room.
• private walk-in closet also in the room
• $2200/month (1 person is also welcome for the same rent! It doesn't have to be 2 people)
• Flexible move-in date. (can accommodate any time in October, or provide spacious living room space and air mattresses if there is overlap with current resident living in this room)

If interested, we would appreciate if you could fill out following Google Form Questionnaire: https://forms.gle/cckHLskVrx641JuL7
You can also ask any questions to the following email: bryant3487@gmail.com (Please email here, not to the Stanford email - it can be seen by all housemates and response would be the fastest)
Or you can text : 650-397-1282

Description of the House:
There are several large living rooms, multiple fridges and freezers for food, and an open floor plan kitchen fully stocked with pots, pans, and kitchen appliances (sous vide machine, mixers, meat slicer, air fryer, etc.) We also have a large backyard area for outdoor BBQ.
Rooms will be unfurnished, but the rest of the house is fully furnished, a foldable NanaWall, projector setup in the downstairs area, home fitness area, and a Japanese style sitting space with tatami mats and a kotatsu.
Location-wise, we are around the corner from Grocery Outlet, a quick walk to the San Antonio Caltrain station, close to multiple farmers markets, and a wonderful bike ride on Bryant Street to Stanford and Downtown Palo Alto.
For additional details, we can also share a short video tour of the house with you!

Lease Details (*Important):
Current lease of the house ends on November 1st, 2023. We are settling down last details of renewing the lease for 1 another year. If you move-in, all 7 housemates would be signing the lease. This means that you would be on the hook for 1 year until October 31st, 2024. If you need to move out earlier, you can definitely find someone for replacement to your room. Should you find replacement, all 7 housemates would be re-signing the lease for the remainder of time until October 31st, 2024.

Description about Current Housemates:

• 5 Male and 2 Females from early 20's to early 30's. Tech Workers, PhD students, interns. We're easygoing and amiable! Everyone is eager to get along and help each other out.
• We love to engage in a nice community life, but we also live independent lives. We have a housemate chat for open communication, to continue good. positive vibes among the housemates.
• We also share going to Costco to buy groceries / etc.
• Decision making process is in unanimity, so everyone has to agree in order to make decisions like lease renewals, covid quarantine policies, etc.
• We sometimes do house dinners (but no pressures at all!), or movie nights in our basement room projector set-up. After work we spontaneously gather and chat around the kitchen table.
• We have various hobbies, such as cooking, playing the piano, outdoorsy stuff (biking, hiking).
• Quiet Hours: The house will be pretty quiet around from 11PM-12AM, that's when almost everybody goes to their rooms and go to sleep

Additional details:

• New construction (2017), we are the first tenants to live in the home.
• Lots of light and communal space, plenty of room for everyone.
• Close proximity to Facebook and Google, about a 10 minute drive.
• 3 miles from the Palo Alto Caltrain Station and downtown Palo Alto
• 5 minute drive from Stanford. 15 minutes by bike.
• Central Cooling and Heating. Washer/Dryer in-house
• We split utilities/WiFi (arguably the fastest in Palo Alto), which will be around $150 on top of rent.
• We have driveway with plenty of parking spots and a garage that stores all our bikes/outdoor goods.
• No pets (sorry :( )
• No smoking or drugs of any kind
