Room details
Hi, all!
I'm renting 1 bedroom in a beautiful 4 BR, 3 BA single story home in a quiet neighborhood of Mukilteo, about 3 minutes' drive/bike ride from the Ferry to Clinton (Whidbey Island) and 5 minutes' drive from the Boeing plant on SR526 in Everett. If you're a mass transit commuter, I'm 5 minutes' walk from the CT117/103 buses, and 15 minutes' walk from Sounder train station next to the Ferry.
The place sits on a large lot with plenty of green space and fun amenities like blueberry, blackberry, and raspberry bushes, 2 large garden spaces, a storage shed, and my 3 indoor cats. MUST LOVE CATS! (or endure them, at least). You would have your own bathroom directly across the hall from your bedroom, and close access to the kitchen, great room, and laundry in garage. House has partial views of Olympics, plus an open floor plan with a wood burning stove for cozy heat in the winter and a full residential AC system keeping the home nice and cool even in the hottest summer days. House also includes large private deck w/full sun and plenty of space for a grill, brand new kitchen appliances including energy-efficient induction stove and new, high-powered microwave, both with convect bake AND air-fry. Dishes, cookware, silverware are all available for community use. The house is fully set up with living room furniture, flat screen TV, full size couch, dining table, etc. You would be sharing the house with only me and my 3 cats. My bedroom is at the other end of the house.
For your $1500, you get your private bedroom, private 3/4 bath room (shower, not tub), use of all the common areas, all utilities paid--including electricity, sewer, water, garbage, and xfinity broadband internet (100mb/s). Your room comes with or without a queen size bed, and there's a 6' wide cedar-lined closet with shelves, as well as a wall-mount for a small flat-screen TV. We are 1 block from Japanese Gulch entrance, so get your hiking shoes out and mountain bike ready to roll!
A little about me: I'm a young-spirited bachelor trying to maximize my time in the greatest outdoor playground on the planet (i.e., the PNW). I do aerospace/mechanical engineering work, and I'm working in the sustainable aviation industry. Empty nest creates room availability.
Seeking minimal 6 month lease--subject to good background and credit check. Move-in costs: First / Last / deposit / background.
Dogs and cats are negotiable for an additional fee--yours must be OK with mine. 420-friendly as long as outdoors. No smoking indoors--not ever. Storage in garage or shed negotiable.
No smoking inside. Not ever.
420 OK, but no smoke in or near house.
Pets OK, for additional pet fee.
Housemate details
I'm young-at-heart, semi-retired aerospace/mechanical engineer. I occupy the master bedroom in the back of the home. I have 3 indoor-only cats. I'm also the owner. I'm not a neat-freak, but I do expect my house-mates to respect the property.
