My partner is an Australian visual artist that primarily lives in Redwood City. I am a tech professional that frequently stays at her house, commuting back here for work. She also spends some nights here. We both work in the field of sustainability. We like live music, dancing and being outdoors. Our house is full of art, light and fun. Our last house mate was a good friend and we occasionally ate together but also gave each other plenty of space. This home is a smoke-free and pet-free environment. The property is available for rent immediately to responsible and respectful individuals. Owner pays for utilities. No smoking or pets allowed.
