About This Lister
Our family of four (with two school-aged children in 4th and 9th grades) lives on the upper floors of the house. We are long-time (25+ years), proud Brooklyn residents, and have lived in this home for three years. We have put a lot of time and energy into renovating and restoring this house, and are looking for tenants who are reliable, responsible, and will take excellent care of the space, and who are excited to live in an owner-occupied home. We value our home and strive for a peaceful, joyful living experience and are looking for tenants who feel the same!
