This elegant, 6-bedroom, 3-bath, 1930s-era Spanish mission-style home sits on what some call one of the largest and lushest front yards in Redlands, towered over by three evenly-spaced, decades-old, 100ft high pine trees. The home is a mere 50 feet from the University of Redlands, and from the front lawn you can see the Memorial Chapel and, from time to time, can hear chorale and classical music from the Chapel. Entering the home you find a dramatic, 1930s-era, mission-style 14' vaulted ceiling with hardwood crossbeams above a living room with French windows, a fireplace with colorful Spanish tile and facing south, a 10ft high, arched double-paned window that looks out to the front lawn. From there, you might wander to the formal dining room that connects to a very large kitchen, with beautiful apricot toned cabinetry and modern, stainless steel appliances. The kitchen connects to a family room, sunlight filling both rooms through a phalanx of seventeen, period French windows. Looking through those windows you see a sparkling pool in the backyard, and on the east side of the home, a courtyard with a mini-grove of nine mature olive trees, Lantana trees and agave. The kitchen provides anyone who appreciates the finer things in life all the space they need. The six bedrooms and three full baths have all been newly painted. The master bedroom has direct access to a deck, the pool and hot tub. The home has central air conditioning and heat, professional landscaping and is situated on the largest lot in the immediate area. The property is completely enclosed by freshly painted, stucoed, pony walls that not only add to the home's security and privacy, but add a touch of European style and elegance. You may, as we did, enjoy lunches under three large trees and dinner under the stars on the sprawling, manicured front lawn, and find exhilarating cool in the pool when temperatures rise. As for the location, it would be hard to find a more desirable place in the Inland Empire. Few would not enjoy this private oasis walking distance to jogging trails, theater, and the Redlands Memorial Chapel (home of the Redlands Symphony). About the roomies The Room for Lease The one currently available room is a converted wine cellar. While small, it is part of a beautiful home and completely new. The ideal tenant will be able to navigate a narrow staircase that leads to the room and will be someone looking for a small, beautiful space within an elegant home in an ideal location and beautiful landscaping as opposed to a large space in a mediocre home. We've selected mostly professional young women including, a science teacher at a local private school and a post graduate medical student/resident. We're interested in creating a mini-community of like-minded, considerate, kind people in the home so we've decided to be really selective and careful. We're looking for people who are at a place in their life where they would like to live in a beautiful space, and can help make it so with their energy, attitude and choices. Our family actually lived in this house for a time and we know that it's a special place. There are many plants and trees on the property so garden lovers/caretakers are especially welcome! Finally, we are looking in the folks we select a comfortable level of emotional/intellectual maturity which often accompanies genuine consideration for others. We welcome the opportunity to get to know you better! :) Please see the description above. Our family has been committed to providing fair, quality, and well-maintained, housing in the local area for about 18 years. The lease is for 12 months minimum. You will need good credit or a cosigner with good credit, steady income, or an income source that allows you to easily pay the rent on time each month. You will also need to have references from your most recent landlords over the last three years. If you do not have references over the last three years, you will need a cosigner. Management pays for landscaping and gardening as well as pool service. Shared utilities are running about $170 a month. We have a guest policy to ensure that all persons living at the home feel respected, and that the space and Community remain positive, private, and vibrant.
