Join Our Family Adventure with Your Own Private Retreat in Forest, VA! Hello there! I'm a single mom with two wonderful college-aged daughters and two adorable French Bulldogs, and we're excited to welcome a special someone to rent the main level of our beautiful home in the Great Oaks community of Forest, Virginia. This 1,450 sq. ft. space is your completely private retreat, with its own entrance and no shared living areas, ensuring your independence and privacy. Perfect for those who'd love the best of both worlds: a lovely, self-contained home with access to half the driveway, plus the comfort of knowing I'm just downstairs in the lower level, ready to pitch in if you ever need a hand whether it's for a quick fix or a friendly chat. Let's make this a fun and supportive rental experience together, while you enjoy your own private sanctuary! Main Level Highlights Private 3 Bedrooms & 2 Full Baths: Cozy rooms with carpeting, including a luxurious master suite featuring its own bath, linen closet, a sizable walk-in closet, and elegant tray ceilings. Optional furnishings include a high-quality bed, nightstands, and dresser from Ashley Home Furnishings. Private Gourmet Kitchen: Granite countertops, upgraded cabinetry, wood flooring, and stainless steel appliances, including a dishwasher, make cooking a delight in your own space. Optional furnishings include an Ashley dinette set with two leaves, expanding to seat 8-10 people, with 6-8 matching chairs and a China cabinet (see main level kitchen photo). Private Inviting Living Area: Unwind by the feature wall with a stone finish, electric fireplace, and mantle, with a wall-mounted large-screen TV included if opting for the furnished package, along with a stylish sofa, coffee table, and accent pieces from Ashley Home Furnishings (see living room photo). Private Outdoor Oasis: Enjoy exclusive access to the covered front porch and the covered back deck via sliders off the dining room, perfect for relaxing with a cup of coffee or hosting a small gathering in your own outdoor space. Convenience: Main-level laundry room and access to half the driveway for easy parking, all part of your private domain. Why Share This Home With Us? Completely Private Space: Your rental includes private access through the main entrance, ensuring the entire main level is your exclusive, self-contained living space no shared areas with us downstairs. All-Inclusive Rent: At $2,500/month (unfurnished) or $2,850/month (furnished), your rent covers electric, garbage, water, high-speed internet, and lawn care (every other week for 6 months annually), so you can settle in without worrying about extra bills. Optional Furnishings: Choose unfurnished, or opt for fully furnished with good-quality Ashley Home Furnishings pieces, including the spacious dinette set, a wall-mounted large-screen TV, living room set, and bedroom furnishings, for a move-in-ready experience. A Collaborative Spirit: While your space is private, renting from a single mom means you're not in this alone! I'm downstairs with my daughters and our two French Bulldogs, happy to lend a hand with small tasks or just share a laugh. It's a partnership that makes home life easier and more enjoyable. Added Security: With us living in the lower level, you'll have the peace of mind that comes with having friendly neighbors right below someone to water the plants if you're away or help out in a pinch.
