111B Roquena Drive - House for Rent

This La Honda Duplex is on a quiet street in a great sunny location. The La Honda community has lots to offer.

This is a custom-built home with some unique features. This fireplace and outdoor barbeque were built by Limey Kay, now a La Honda legend. He was a genius with brick and stone and built most of the chimneys and barbecues in town, easily identified by the trademark abalone shell embedded somewhere in the project. This is a classic La Honda house in the best sense of the word. Warm inviting and comfortable. Definitely a house full of character.

This house has one bedroom, with a large closet. THe washer and dryer hookups are on the back porch. The living room has a great fireplace, and an extra room used as a dining room/office or extra bedroom has a new wood stove. The basement is available for storage. It is a very quiet and secluded location. La Honda is a great little town with an excellent elementary school, tennis courts, community swimming pool, hiking trails and a clubhouse. 20 minutes drive from I 280 at Palo Alto means a comfortable commute.

Security deposit is 2 months. One or more year lease required. No smoking. Cats are OK, but the dog issue is a concern as there is no fenced yard, so your dog will have to be walked. DSL and cable available. Cell phones even work in La Honda now! Water is included in the rent (a $250/mo value). You pay gas and half the electricity bill. The hot water and stove are all gas.

Separate apartment with separate yard and driveway is next door to the left and is not part of this unit. It is hardly noticeable.
