Property Description
This is a Super Nice 2 bedroom Second floor unit. The property is located in the Historic District and you have off street parking. The second floor unit was the owners suite and it has a very large kitchen/dining room with a door to a covered rear porch. The living room is next to the kitchen and has plenty of closet space. The rent includes, heat, hot water, water, sewer, trash, one parking space and use of the laundry in the basement. NO PETS....NO SMOKING.... You will see that this is a very nice building and in a great area. The front door is always locked and secure and you will love the large porch around the property and the black iron fence adds extra charm too. You will need First Month, Last Month and One month move in Fee. I will also need to see 2 months of pay stubs that would show you make $1450 take home per week. I will be doing a background and credit check.
