Recently renovated Albany studio ADU for rent

This attractive, light-filled, free-standing ADU with private entrance from Masonic Avenue is within walking distance to bus, BART, Solano Avenue shops and restaurants. Since it is located across from the Ohlone Greenway, there is ample on-street... parking available without permit. The unit was built new in 2022, so all appliances (electric oven/stove/microwave/dishwasher/refrigerator and freezer/energy efficient heat pump for both heating and AC) and furniture (queen bed in loft, sofa, coffee table, TV stand, dining table and chairs, bookshelf, storage cubbies, motorized standing/sitting desk) are recent. The bathroom has a large walk-in shower (no tub), a sink and mirror, and the in-unit washer and dryer. There is also a closet with organizing system (hangers and shelves). High-speed internet cost is included in the rent. Although cable TV is not paid by the landlord, there is a television set in the unit that is cable-ready with a dedicated data line ready to activate (Xfinity). 564 feet of interior living space (including loft, where the bed is accessible via a secure ladder) plus a small private, fenced-in patio. Lease length is 4 months minimum.
