A spacious 2 BR occupying the 2nd & 3rd floors of this property is currently available at $1185/month.

This is a 2 floor (2nd & 3rd) 2 bedroom apartment including a living room and dining room.
The lease term is 1 year commencing September 1. Rent... rate is $1185 if paid before the 1st of the month. Included utilities are water/sewer and trash pick-up.

It features a separate living room adjacent to a dining (or bedroom) which has a leaded see through door separating them. Tall ceilings, mantles, hardwood floors and many updates enhance the character of this property. The bath has large storage cabinets and a high window for ventilation. Tiffany style lighting hangs in multiple locations. The eat-in kitchen is spacious with cabinets and appliances occupying 3 walls. A stacked washer-dryer (coin op) is also conveniently located off a stairway to the spacious deck.

The main 2nd floor is all oak hardwood throughout; the 3rd floor is carpeted and one room has hardwood laminate flooring and has a large slider window overlooking a thick expanse of trees. A foyer provides transition from the exterior front door to the entry doors for the ground floor and upstairs apartments.

Imagine lounging on your front porch. Passersby add dimension to already lively activity of birds, squirrels and visits from the neighbor’s cat. Peering up the cobblestone street in front of you, people are walking to the nearby supermarket or just enjoying a walk in their neighborhood. It’s a semi-urban landscape with large early 1900’s residences, trees and the scents of summer. A great place to enjoy the morning or evening.

But most alluring anytime of day is the expansive deck that overlooks a landscape of mature trees that fill the beholder with every shade of green; unless it’s fall. Autumn brings a mosaic of yellows, oranges and reds that compete with the compelling scent that enlightens the spirit and endears the soul.

Inside, hardwood floors and high ceilings recall the era when this Federalist white brick creation was constructed by artisans who left their mark on the impressive materials of the day; broad woodwork around windows, high baseboards and mantles in every room.

Of course bathrooms and kitchens reflect today’s amenities, windows have been replaced and plumbing transitioned from cast iron to synthetic, problem free material.

Ceiling fans offer comfort when needed, and breezes flow gently when windows and doors are open.

The feeling can be like that of residing in a tree house. The neighborhood can feel like home. And nearby restaurants and shops are only steps away.
