Unfurnished Modern 420 sq ft Cottage Studio.

This adorable 420 sq ft backyard cottage studio unit is just blocks from Mountain View's bustling downtown Castro Street. It sits behind a 3BR home occupied by other tenants. The interior is modern and updated, with sleek stainless-steel kitchen fittings and appliances and quartz countertops. The main room is spacious and bright and comes with ample closet and storage space, plus a corner workstation for those WFH days. The main room also features hardwood floors, recessed lighting, and an AC unit. The bathroom has a glass-enclosed shower and a full washer and dryer.

The front patio area is separated from the main home by shrubbery and planters, allowing for complete privacy for working or entertaining outside. Parking is on the street.
