We’re renting one room in a nice 3-beds 1.5-bath house in Mountain View. The house features a small front yard (with raised-bed gardens for growing veggies and herbs), a bigger backyard, and a garage.

My fiance and I have the master bedroom and one of the smaller bedrooms (which we use as an office and sometimes as a guest room). The room we’re renting is approximately 9 x 10 feet, plus a wall closet; it’s not huge, but our current roommate was able to fit comfortably a full bed, a bookshelf, and an armchair (see picture).

The house is located in the quiet neighborhood of Monta Loma, less than 10 minutes walking distance from the San Antonio Caltrain station (about half a mile), and very close to the San Antonio shopping center (about a mile).

I am a postdoc at Stanford, and my fiance is an operations manager for a tech startup. We’re both in our thirties, and we like cooking, hanging out in the city, and go to the occasional hike in the redwoods. We have a 5-years old white lab, who’s very sweet and was trained as a guide dog by Guide Dogs of America (though she never got to work as one, so she’s officially “retired” now).

Our ideal roommate is a young professional around our age who knows how to contribute to a friendly and fun environment while respecting personal space and time.

If you’re interested in seeing more pictures of the house, please contact us and tell us a bit more about yourself (including a Facebook or LinkedIn profile would certainly help).

Rent is $1250 plus utilities.
