Looking for a lovely roomie...

Ad ref# 101511907

Looking for potential roomies from the start of December. Its a bedroom/house share in beautiful Mosswood home. Room is on the 3rd floor, has large windows that look out onto a fabulous old redwood tree. The room has its own bathroom and a good sized closet. It sits across the hall way from a similarly equipped bedroom (mine). The second floor has a big kitchen/dining room and a living room/tv area that opens on to a small balcony. The place is a new building so it's clean with electrical outlets everywhere, there are hardwood floors on floor 2 and carpets in the bedrooms. Ground floor has a music studio/office/guest room. Its full of music gear right now but that clears up fast if someone comes to visit. The unit is located off street in a neat development with a couple of other similar units. You actually can't tell its here from the street. Its extremely safe and you could probably leave the doors unlocked?. I don't?. but you probably could. Its very quiet here and beautiful. The redwood tree I mentioned above forms a natural centerpiece that the buildings have been built around . It provides me with a trunk to lean on, some shade, and a sense of wonder. It is also home to a bunch of squirrels

The room will be available from December 1 The rent is $1100, for singles $1650 for couples plus utilities (Comcast is $83/PG&E comes in between $80 in the summer and twice that in winter/EBMUD is about $180 bi monthly).

What we got:
Wi Fi
Washer/Dryer in unit
1/2 bathroom on the 2nd floor (by the kitchen so you don't have to run upstairs).
4 blocks to MacArthur Bart.
Super easy freeway access. SF downtown is reachable in 15/20 mins, traffic willing.
Mosswood Park right around the corner.
Temescal open air pool 5 blocks away.
Piedmont Avenue shops and restaurants and Yoga and Coffee, 10 minute walk.
Telegraph Avenue shops and restaurants and Yoga and Coffee, 10 minute walk.
Wine shop 2 minutes walk
Guitars (Broken) 2 minutes walk.
Plenty of street parking (you just need to get a permit).

About me. I am british . I'm intelligent and easy going, politically very progressive, the "Bern" is strong here. I love to cook and play guitar... I'm a a surfer of 18 yrs and I love me some Ocean Beach when time/weather/traffic permit. I'm social, open minded and I try to be kind on a daily basis. I am a single dad with a fabulous/funny/ridonkulosly cute 7 year old boy. He is with me when I'm not working (3 nights a week) so whoever you might be you GOTTA be kid friendly. I work as a waiter in SF 4 nights a week and so days I'm around/nights the place is yours. I like it here. I love the weather, the quiet, the amenities, the fabulous restaurants (though I don't get out that much nowadays having the kid and all ) the (not so) new Bay Bridge and Oakland in general. I'm looking to share this place with a like minded individual or couple or whatever. I have long time room mate experience from my time in SF and I'm tolerant of all kinds of behaviors and I've made many long time friends over the years in this way? Please respond to this ad by telling me a little about your self or selves and we can take it from there.
Thanks. Aiden
