| Currently living in our house is me (female, 28, musician) and my roommate (female, 24, graphic designer). I also have a sweet 2-year old lab mix. We're looking for another roommate beginning in August. We have: wireless internet, inside washer/dryer, utilities, and a big back yard and deck. Utilities are additional and never total more than $100/person. The room up for grabs has a big closet, and a shared bathroom off the hallway. The house is beautiful and sunny, with a great vibe. It's very close to Ringling, the bay, and downtown. I own it, so all repairs and issues are taken care of immediately. We are fun and responsible, busy, tidy, and laid-back. Looking for the same.
