Via Ballard Realty

This one-bedroom apartment at the north end of Greenwood looks pretty no-frills until you notice the fireplace and the balcony, plus in-unit laundry and garage parking. No pets allowed, though. It rents for $1,295 per month.

This brand-new, solar-powered microstudio in Fremont—under 240 square feet—runs partially off energy collected from the roof. It features a built-in desk and shelves to save space, and rents for $1,280 per month.
