Overview

My 1920's built brick house has a little under 1200 square feet of living space. It has all new double hung high quality windows, extra roof insulation added, new hot water heater, washer and dryer, off street parking and vehicle port, new paint, inside and out and guttering and original hardwood flooring. It is air conditioned and gas forced air duct heated. The tenant(s) cannot do any painting of walls, floors, windows doors, ceilings, built-ins, appliances, the interior or exterior or any furnishings during the term of the lease. Additionally, no exterior or interior construction is permitted, which includes exterior fencing, without the written permission of the owner.

The lease for this furnished house is well below the market prices for comparable furnished dwellings. I am looking for a special person (s) to treat my home, furnishings, landscaping and general grounds with the utmost care during this period and I have priced the lease to accommodate such a person or persons. If you are student, only graduate or law students need apply. The house and furnishings well be delivered to the tenant(s) broom ready, wiped down, with all appliances cleaned. The tenant(s) deliver back to the owner with this same process of cleaning. The owner employs a lawn service for the property. There will be no lawn mower or trimmer on site. It will be obligation of the tenant(s) to keep the lawn and grounds in acceptable condition to the standards of the neighborhood.

The house is fully furnished, with quality furniture and appliances, including many common household and cleaning items. A number of personal effects, eauipment and keepsakes will be removed from the property prior to the lease commencement. Any removal of furnishings during the lease period requires that those furnishing be stored in a secure dry location and returned and placed into position at the end of the lease period.
