Hello Spring! Is community living your preferred way of life? It takes some extra effort, compromise and generosity but pays off in so many ways: in friendships, mutual support and all the benefits of built-in collegial IRL social network.
Also, living in a big beautiful property that many people will not be able to afford or enjoy on their own.
Zip is Redwood City but address is Woodside, CA
We have a couple small available living spaces available in this grand co-living mansion and we're interviewing prospective members of our fun, balanced, and collegiate group of people.
We are a very active community living in a very large and historic estate that's built to impress and entertain on a gated and wooded peninsula property.
We enjoy the ideal weather (it's always a bit nicer here), fantastic running, hiking, biking right outside the gates.
We have meals, exercise, play games and socialize in our huge shared indoor spaces and multiple outdoor decks.
Residents are active, established, educated, open-minded adults working as tech, arts, medical and finance professionals in our late 20's thru 50's living in a social, inclusive, fun and respectful atmosphere.
We get together to cook, binge shows, do yoga, run, bike, surf, SUP, enjoy EPIC pass ski trips, travel, camp, sports games or just hang out.
We keep a fairly tidy place and everyone here is expected to pitch in to keep it that way between the cleaner's visits.
All residents have full use and access to AMPLE communal space including formal and family dining rooms, grand ballroom (with grand piano), music lounge with club sound and lighting for dance parties, several large decks with seating, grills, game spaces with billiard and ping pong tables and a PS5.
Full kitchen facilities includes double convection oven, 5-burner gas stove, two dishwashers, and all the needed utensils and gadgets.
Gym include stationary bikes, rowing machine, stair climber, treadmill, elliptical trainer, squat rack, bench, free weights, a universal-type weight station, roman chair, and more are on-site.
The large laundry room has 2 washers and 2 dryers, hanging racks etc.
Your friends and overnight guests are welcome.
About the location: Quiet gated property in a 2+ acre park-like lot.
1/2 mile to 280, 12 min to 101 or downtown Redwood City, 15 Min to Facebook or Stanford, Palo Alto, and 20-30 min to SF.
Extremely limited public transportation is available in walking distance but Bart and Caltrain are a quick drive.
IMPORTANT: Please reply with something more than "is it available" or "when can I check it out?"
*tell us about yourself, what you are looking for, and what you bring to the community* and include any social links you care to share and/or best way to contact you directly.
FUNNY STORY: More than once, visitors commented that they had seen our ad like this and dismissed it as too-good-to-be-real and did not respond.

We do cook meat as well as drink alcohol.
If you cannot be around or freely share space, utensils and a kitchen with people who do these things, this may not be the place for you.
On-site parking is limited to one vehicle per occupant and there is NO nearby street parking available.
VERY limited personal storage available in the home outside of your room.
We love all you Maker-types but there are NO workshop, garage or crafty/maker workspaces outside of your room.
The building is old (historic?), there are NO living spaces or bathrooms accessible without at least a step or two, most bedrooms and bathrooms are not on the ground floor so ability to climb stairs a must.
Financial Details: We each have a lease for our personal space with the landlord thru a property management company, the good thing is your rent will NOT fluctuate with occupancy nor do you need to worry about Master-tenant shenanigans.
Rent does not include utilities or any other tenant responsibilities such as any plumbing problems or damages.
We share all non-rent expenses (such as Water, Gas, Electricity, TV and broadband, trash), shared supplies (TP, Paper towels, trash bags, dish and laundry soap, etc.
) and bi-weekly cleaning of shared space per resident and it averages about $250/mo depending to the time of year and number of residents/shares.
Landlord takes care of the weekly maintenance of outdoor space (gardener).
Deposit is 1 month rent.
MINIMUM 6 month lease, longer term tenants are ideal!
Sorry, we are not accepting short term or month to month tenants.
The Process: Reply to this ad, tell us about yourself, what you are looking for and what you bring to the community, if it sounds like a match, we'll contact you and see if we can schedule a visit.
If that all goes well, you fill out an app with the property manger who will run your credit/background (they ask small credit/background check fee).
Sign a lease and move in :)
We look forward to hearing from you!
