Description

We recently renovated this back cottage/ADU and look forward to renting it to artists, students, faculty, nurses, or people looking for a quiet, private spot near cafes, bike trails, and public transport. We seek someone friendly but independent who will take good care of our property. If you like to garden, we have ample space for you to play. The house is really special with lots of light through multiple windows, skylights, and high ceilings. The cottage includes a full shower and bathroom, a fully equipped kitchenette and lovely sleeping space. Quiet at night, the cottage opens to our spacious yard, garden and deck. We welcome you to share a hot tub, washer and drier as well as our large parking space.
