Comments: A fully furnished 2-bedroom, 3-bathroom home in Richmond's Marina Bay, offered for a six-month term from January to June 2027. Marina Bay sits along Richmond's protected Inner Harbor — a quiet, walkable pocket of the East Bay built around the water, with the Marina Bay Trail for evening walks and views of boats coming in from the harbor. It's the kind of neighborhood suited to a family settling in for a season, not just passing through. The home comes with an attached two-car garage and is fully furnished, so a visiting family can arrive with little more than luggage.
