What This House Offers
Hi there! We have two bedrooms in a stand-alone house on Washington St. in Arlington. I live here with my daughter. The kitchen and baths are well updated, and... the house is surprisingly well-insulated against the heat and cold. Common areas are open for all to enjoy and fill and decorate as you like. Unless you have terrible taste. :)
The basement room is half the footprint of the house, and the other half is unfinished but well lit and free of water or spiders, so if one wanted workshop or inventory space or crafting space, have at it.
The main floor room faces the kitchen, has two windows and a closet, and has great morning light.
The house is pet friendly, as are we! We currently have no pets but the house is pretty pet proof.
I'm the sole person on the lease, and I've been here for about five years. If you'd like to be on that lease, it's a phone call away! If you'd like a shorter or longer stay than 12 months, we can talk about that.
Utilities are split evenly and are pretty manageable three ways.
We have ample off-street parking, which is handy in Arlington since there's no overnight street parking most places. There are a number of parks and woodlands to hike and explore within walking distance of us, and since we're on the Winchester side of Arlington, we're close to farmers' markets and Burlington for all your malling needs, and so on.
Yard work and snow removal are included. They do a pretty good job!
What else did I miss. The bus comes right up Washington St. and stops in front of our house. I'm a work from home graphic designer, and I'm mainly upstairs at work. We're all pretty clean, but we're not crazy about it. We pick up after ourselves and all that.
Let me know if you have any questions.
Best,
Mike
