Beautiful and light private unit in the coveted Dominican neighborhood. Freshly remodeled kitchen and bathroom. Private back patio with a small garden space. Renting through next winter as planning to sell our home in the spring, so this is 1 year limited lease. There is a tenant upstairs but this old house is very well insulated and neighbors have co-existed without any trouble. Open to pets.
Owner pays for gardener and water, tenant to pay PG&E and garbage
