A charming, spacious and remodeled cottage makes a lovely and convenient home in Germantown. Owner seeks a year-long tenant for this stylish 1 BR, 1 BA apartment measuring roughly 800 square feet with covered parking, private backyard and deck. Cottage is unfurnished save for a modern Ligne Roset dining table in the kitchen nook. All rooms have new windows and doors a/o 18 months ago. Plumbing and heating infrastructure was fully replaced in 2021. Bedroom is carpeted. Bathroom's walk-in shower was replaced last spring, and the entire place feels fresh and peaceful. The owner's house shares a driveway. Renter pays own propane heat and electricity in addition to the rent. Owner pays garbage collection, all property maintenance (including mowing and plowing) and basic WiFi of excellent speed and quality. Owner is a writer, horse rider and college professor. Seeking a tenant who is considerate and appreciates the beauty of the surrounding property with walking paths and a fantastic pond and barn. No washer-dryer in unit but tenant can use units in owner's basement on a schedule.
I bought my property in Germantown in 2021 and have since renewed both the cottage rental and my house. I am a writer, a journalist and a college professor, living part-time in NYC but at my house here on a weekly basis. I will be showing the space and am the contact person for tenants.
Will be showing the space on September 20th and 21st for rental on 10/1 or subsequently. Two references requested, along with a credit check and proof of income. Move-in requires first month and security deposit equal to one month. Indoor cat allowed but dog must be discussed and negotiated.
Owner has dog and cat so pets must be discussed and will be considered on a case-by-case basis.
