Hi! I am subletting my primary/master bedroom + private bathroom in our 3bed/2bath apartment for the winter, with some flexibility. The Avalon apartment is located within walking distance from downtown Mountain View and the Caltrain station and is generally an excellent place to live at a surprisingly great rent-controlled(!) rate. Because of the preferences of one of the existing roomies, we're primarily seeking a female-identifying person to fill this space.
Dates can start as early as end of November, and carry through at least February into March, though I'm very flexible, so if you need longer just let me know!
Costs:
* Base Rent + internet: 1400/month for the room (+2.7% rent increase in Feb)
* Utilities: ~$95/month/person (~$284 across 3 people w/ some discounts — that said, we're in the middle of a utility billing transition, so it may be up to ~$110/person)
About the room:
The room is 10'x13' +private hallway and private full bathroom and comes *very* furnished with a Full-sized mattress, sheets, blankets, pillows, towels, desks, monitors, chairs, lights, fairy light decorations, etc. I'll be clearing most of my things and putting them under the bed and in the walk-in closet, so you won't have access to that. Additionally there will be a few things left out, like some of the contents of the bookshelf, organizer, etc.
You'll be sharing the rest of the apartment with two other women, one of which is recent grad working remotely who enjoys singing and watching shows and movies. Despite those interests, she's very quiet! The other apartment-mate is still undecided since we're still seeking to fill that space with someone more long-term (if interested in that space, check it out: https://supost.com/post/index/130027438 )
You can find the set of apartment photos (though we've added more things since these were taken) here: https://1drv.ms/f/c/21bd43ec596f3410/QhA0b1nsQ70ggCEbggAAAAAASr8kHJkwgys5OA since I can't upload all the photos here. Disregard rooms A and B, as my room isn't in those photos.

About YOU:
Nice, friendly, respectful, communicative, non-smoking/drugs, clean in shared spaces, and reasonably volume-d (complex's quiet hours are from 10pm-8am, but we try not to disturb neighbors, etc.), not a big party host (occasional small tasteful evening affairs are fine).
And for everyone's health, if you get sick, we would like you to be okay with spending your time at home in your room with the door closed when not cooking (masked)
Apartment:
* In-unit washer & dryer
* Dishwasher / Fridge
* Private balcony
* 2nd floor apartment
* Full kitchen, complete living room, separate dining area
* Lots of kitchen/cooking gear I'm willing to share if you can take care of it
* Air conditioning (wall unit) / baseboard heat (though we rarely need either)
* Yamaha P115B digital piano with weighted keys (and a headphone jack, don't worry!)
Community:
* Great service and maintenance, responsive owners
* Amazon locker for all your packages to keep them safe (though I've never seen a package stolen even when the lockers are full)
* Fitness center
* Really pretty lush grounds
* Well-reviewed by tenants
* Easy & free parking
* Close proximity to: downtown Mountain View (food, events, an absurd amount of boba, & Caltrain), Google campus, San Antonio shopping center (groceries [Safeway/Trader Joes/Walmart/Target], theater), several parks (and a skate park)
* Safe area
* Free Mountain View shuttle
* Nice pool & fountain
* Patio & barbecue area
* Community events and contests
* Dog park + lots of dog friends in the complex (and a neighborhood cat that are pretty dope)
* Community pool/bbq parties + pet days
* About a 15 minute drive to Stanford
More photos of the apartment complex and amenities are available at their website (just click "View Gallery" or the big pool photo itself): https://www.avaloncommunities.com/california/mountain-view-apartments/avalon-mountain-view
If you're interested, please (don't click reserve—it doesn't work the way you think it does! but instead) reply to the ad with:
* what dates you're interested in
* some info about you
* your ideal living/roommate situation
* any questions you might have,
* and preferably some of your availability to have a video chat / tour (in person, zoom, teams, google meet, etc. are all fine).
I look forward to meeting you! :D
