Charming 1940s 2 bedroom, 1 bathroom duplex located in North Tabor. Approximately 1600 square feet and side by side layout means no neighbors above or below. Fresh paint, hardwood flooring, and central heat with gas furnace. This is a quiet neighborhood and the other side of the duplex is occupied by a professional who works long hours, so this isn't a place for partiers or holding band practice, but is a great place to relax, study, work from home, or garden. The main floor is approximately 800 sq feet and has two bedrooms, bathroom, original built-ins in hallway, light filled living room with ceiling fan and skylight, dining nook, and a kitchen with butcher-block counter tops and dishwasher. Basement level is approximately 800 sq feet and is semi-divided so you have separate areas for laundry (washer and dryer not included, hookups only), storage, a home office, or gym. Large, private, fenced back yard with shade tree, blackberry bushes, grape vines, and a small raised garden bed. Your lease also comes with a detached two car garage for storing extra items (vehicles will not fit). Plentiful street parking and potential use of driveway for additional monthly fee. Non-Smoking property. The home is right off of I-84 and is very close to I-205 so commuting is a breeze. TriMet bus line 77 is 400 feet from the house and TriMet bus line 19 is less than a half mile away. Providence Medical center and the airport are minutes away. The home is an easy walk from Fressen Bakery, East Glisan Pizza Lounge, Fillmore Coffee, the Baerlic Brewing Taphouse and Food Car pod, and the soon to open Gigantic Brewing Taproom. I'm not a leasing company or a professional landlord and this is my only rental property. I want tenants who will love the house like their own. If the above sounds good and you would like a showing, please send me a little information about yourself and anyone else who may live with you in the house (what you do, when you want to move in, why you are moving, the type and size of any pets you have and any pictures you want to share of your pet, etc). Available 12/15 or sooner if you don't mind some minor painting in the stairwell and new wood laminate flooring being installed in the kitchen. Landlord pays for garbage. Tenant pays water/sewer, gas, electric, and any internet/cable. Tenant is also responsible for yard maintenance. Pets ok on case-by-case approval and with additional deposit depending on number and type of pet(s). Lease can be 6 months to start, with option to renew for a year if we are a good fit. Renters insurance required. Everyone above the age of 18 who will be living in the house must fill out an application and complete a $40 third-party tenant screening (credit, evictions, criminal history, etc). Household must make 2.5 times the monthly rent and income will be verified.
