About this House

In a structure dating from the 1920's, this newly-renovated (900 sq ft., 2
bedroom, 1 bathroom) cottage is nestled in a quiet residential area,
across the street from an unobstructed ocean view, and is 2 blocks away from D street beach access, and only a few blocks away from
Downtown Encinitas.
Rental is for July 1st to October 31st.
Rent includes utilities (Electrical, gas, Water,
long distance telephone, and internet), and the space is
fully furnished, including couch, chairs, dining table, dishes, and king
size bed. A rare find. I am the assistant of the person you will be
subletting the space from. He is out of the country for the next four
months, and we are looking to sublet the space from May 1st until
November 1st. I work in one of the bedrooms that we have converted
into an office. I answer emails, do video editing, and maintain computer systems. I am only in the office from 10am to 6pm Monday through Friday.
Otherwise, the space is yours. Please no smokers or pets.

Why this place is awesome (in list form):

A (normally) very quiet location within short walking distance of downtown Encinitas. (please note, there are two single family homes being built across the street currently)
 Full Furnishings (Bed, Couch, 55"inch TV, CD/DVD/Blu Ray Player, dining room table, amongst other things)
 Gorgeous living room with vaulted ceilings. You can see the ocean while you eat your cornflakes!
 Extensive Library
 Bamboo Wood floors
 Remodeled in 2012with large, new windows, doors and outlets
 ADT Burglar Alarm
 Washer, Dryer, Refrigerator and Dishwasher
 Central Heating (which you use surprisingly often in Encinitas from May to June)
Dehumidifier
 Gas Stove/Oven
 Weekly Gardener
 24Mbps Hi Speed Internet with WiFi (and an on call IT admin to manage it for you).
 Landline with free Nationwide calling
 Two fun, enclosed areas to have lunches and brunches, the front lawn and back patio.
 Corner lot
 Direct view to the Ocean.
 WAAY too many ways to stream your favorite content, including a "smart" TV (Luckily it doesn't have a microphone or webcam, so don't worry about NSA and/or hacking problems).
 Whole Foods is only 3 blocks away!
 Stairs to get to the beach are only two blocks away. Located on the bluff between the world famous Moonlight and Swami?s beaches.

Treat yourself to a summer sanctuary.
Requirements to move in: I ask that first and last month's rent be paid before moving in, plus a $100 cleaning fee ($3400)

Also note, the house has 2 bedrooms, but one of them is my office.
Please email me with a brief introduction and any questions.

We have a great little beach house that is perfect for weekend relaxation. In a structure dating from the 1920's, this recently-renovated (900 sq ft., 2
bedroom, 1 bathroom) cottage is nestled in a quiet residential area,
across the street from an unobstructed ocean view, and is 2 blocks away from D street beach access. It is in the heart of
Downtown Encinitas.
Rental is for July 1st to November 1st.
Rent includes utilities (Electrical, gas, Water,
long distance telephone, and internet), and the space is
fully furnished, including couch, chairs, dining table, dishes, and king
size bed. But, here is the thing: The person that you would be subletting from runs a business out of his house, involving two very loyal and caring employees who manage most aspects of his life. They still require office space while he is away. Tasks include answering emails, organizing and marketing his events, video editing, web design, tech support, and other IT things. We are only in the office from 10am to 6pm Monday through Friday. That is our personal rule to the person(s) who take the space. We also only use the restroom and kitchen, and we clean up after ourselves. We have had this arrangement (with a single employee) for the past 7 years, and it has been very positive. We have added a second part time employee. We have references from p

    "The neighborhood is a mix of retired people and new families. It’s not as communal as other cities I’ve lived in with many people driving in and out of the community and then staying inside or in their backyard. The gates parks prohibit kids meeting there unless they belong to an association. It’s odd to see a gated park that children cannot play on , meet new kids that live across the street, etc. I’m used to larger cities where there are more public places to gather, meet your neighbors, and create a stronger community."

    "Great area and great schools. Some great parks and close to the beach. Great for being outside but the hills and lack of sidewalks in areas makes it less walkable than other areas. Package theft does happen and people don’t clean up after their pets well. The rent is also really high around here. "
