Further details: The space Nestled in the back yard of a home in the Old Mountain neighborhood, providing great privacy, this delightful, bright, and furnished cottage has a perfect location: just a few minutes' walk to downtown Castro Street, Caltrain, the VTA light rail, and the pickup locations of numerous corporate shuttles, including the big G, LinkedIn, the big M, NASA, Symantec, etc. The main room has a queen-sized bed, a comfy couch, and a small table with a smart TV, with cable TV provided via the SlingTV app. You can watch Netflix, Amazon, Hulu etc. via your own account. The French doors provide ample streams of sunshine, and the room itself is very well lit. The kitchenette has a toaster, coffee maker, bar fridge, and sink, as well as a convection microwave (instead of a traditional oven) and two tabletop induction hot plate (instead of a traditional stove). While you can cook great meals using the hot plates and the microwave, note that the kitchenette is small and not really equipped for gourmet cooking. Please also note that there is no dishwasher. The bathroom is spacious, with a large shower/tub and a sink, and a large skylight for maximum natural light. Guest access You'll have complete and exclusive access to the cottage, including the main area, the bathroom and the front patio. The driveway, the area leading to the cottage, the back yard, and the washer and dryer in the garage are shared with the residents of the front home. You're always welcome to use the back yard barbecue, and when we entertain in the back yard (roughly twice a month), we'd love to have you join us! We've met some of the most fascinating people and formed some cool connections with guests. That said, we have 100% respect for guest privacy, and we follow guest cues regarding interaction with them.
