Roomate wanted! Covina - Southern California

Hi friends!

I have a small 3 bedroom 2 bath house in the Covina area with in a couple of blocks of the intersection of Azusa Avenue and Cypress Street in Covina. Just to the north and west. (Check Mapquest of similar program. The house is on a pretty sectioned off quiet cul-de-sac. It's a five minute drive north to the 210 freeway and about 8 minutes down to the 10 Freeway east of the 605 by 10-15 minutes.

The house is small around 1000 - 1100 square feet I think.

It has a fenced back and a front yard with a screened in porch and a one car garage. You would have a bedroom and the main bath, share the kitchen/dining room, living room, yard, porch and patio.

I have the master bath and the smallest bed room as office and storage.

The Bedroom is not ready at this time but can be in a few days to a week i think..The bedroom is some what furnished:cool old dresser two end tables and a huge wall mirror all in superb condition, but possibly no bed although there is a small chance of a full or and a good chance of little one available. The room has one big closet the type with the 2 sliding doors.

I'd like to share some common room clean up and yard work. If you can remember to water the lawn you'll be a big help, I can't. There is a shed with mower and other yard tools. I also have one full size Weber kettle BBQ and Kingsford BBQ and 2 Smokey Joe BBQ's so if yu like to BBQ we got the tools for some serious cooking.

One thing I prefer an NON-Smoker (cigarettes) but you can be an occasional smoker if you can close the sliding glass doors behind you and hang out on the screened in porch, just no smoking inside. I don't mind a cigar in the back yard now and again myself.

I do have a dog. Max the wonderdog is a happy chubby dachshund that is slowly losing weight so don't feed him when he begs. He is a sweetie but he can be trouble so there are some particulars such as careful what you may leave on the floor or drop. I'd prefer if you had no pets, it's just what if Max doesn't get along or re-injures his back rough housing. No cats, I am very alergic to cats.


Right now the garage is 3/4's full but I hope to clear some stuff and reorganize that to open up much more storage, There is enough room in the driveway to comfortably park my truck and another vehicle.

I had in mind a dollar value for rent and sharing some of the utilities, Gas, Electric, Water, Trash pick up. Cooking and Food, well that is a question, maybe not share maybe yes share. I have a decent Micrwave. I do have 2 fridges, though one is in the garage. I do not have a diswasher, would love to at some point BUT... I have some decent pots and pans and other cooking tool that you may use as well as dishes, cups etc.

I'd prefer the land line at the house be my exclusive but that's open to discussion. I have no cable or satilite tv and am ambivilant on them at this time. In deffeerence to the neighbors we can be fairly loud until about 9ish in the pm but not really loud. I usually have to go to bed early.

I have a few things to fix but nothing major at this time. The roof is new so no leaks there!

Open for discussion.

THanks for reading this ad!

John...

I'd snap it up if I were relocating to that sunny side of the street (or pond in my case!). Good Luck with getting the right person!!

Hi John - I'm relocating to L.A. in a week or two, but I have two kids, so probably not enough room for all of us. Otherwise I'd jump at that low rent!
