Description

Charming 2 bedroom, 1 bath cottage in lovely Sycamore Park. Includes 1 car garage, plus tandem 1 car uncovered parking, washer/dryer and deck off kitchen. Really feels like a tree house -- while entered from ground level.

Enjoy views of the hills, across Sycamore Park, from the living and dining areas, kitchen and one bedroom. Cozy up to the wood burning fireplace in winter. A whole wall of built-in shelves holds your books and favorite knick-knacks. Cook in the efficient kitchen with its gas range top and built-in microwave. Dine -- or just relax -- on the adjacent deck, which shares the view. Relax in the private, fenced front yard.

Features refinished floors, retiled bathroom with refinished older, deeper tub, and efficient heat pump system which provides both heat and A/C)!

The cottage is legally a duplex, with a studio unit underneath the back of the house. (There's no way to put that in Zillow's descriptors.)

Pets allowed only with good references from current landlord. No smoking. No firearms.

Walking distance to Whole Foods (.6 mi), and the center of Mill Valley (.8 mi), not to mention several hiking trails.

Lease is actually 11 months (Zillow doesn't have that as a possibility), because of recent changes to CA laws. Rent includes water, sewer and garbage. You pay electricity and half the gas. You're required to leave on the electric switch that powers the irrigation.

Actual rent to income ratio is as follows (there is no way to put this in Zillow's standard form.: Income less fixed monthly debt (usually car loans, student loans and/or credit card monthly minimum) must be more than 3x rent.

No collections except medical collections.

    "Love it here. We moved into the neighborhood a few months ago. Why am I still on Trulia? Doing some market research for work. I would say this is a fantastic family-oriented location. Unfortunately, inventory is super tight. Good luck in your search!"
