The House: is a bright and airy, mid-century modern, two-story semi-detached house with giant windows and hardwood floors. On the upper level, it has two well-proportioned bedrooms, and a versatile third room ideal as a home office, nursery, or creative studio. The house has two full baths - one has been recently renovated with luxury modern finishes. The open-concept ground floor seamlessly integrates the brightly lit kitchen, living, and dining areas, perfect for modern living and entertaining. Enjoy a private, fenced back yard with space for gardening. The front porch offers a comfortable outdoor space for relaxing with neighbors and friends. An energy-efficient washer and dyer is located in the basement. All of the utilities have been upgraded for energy efficiency including radiant heat, air conditioning, and hot water. Nestled in a peaceful pocket of Brookland, the neighborhood offers a charming mix of established residents and new energy. The neighbors occasionally share backyard BBQs, porch drinks, and even plants. The neighborhood is sandwiched between Catholic University, Fort Totten Park, and Petworth meaning green space is abundant and excellent bars and restaurants are within walking distance (Hitching Post, Brookland Pint, Busboys and Poets, Dew Drop Inn, and more). The Arts Walk hosts a Saturday morning farmer's market year-round (along with other cute shops and studios), Yes! Organic Market is about a 15-minute walk away on 12th street and The new Trader Joes(!) on Monroe is a 20-minute walk/5 minute drive. To get further from the immediate neighborhood, you can take the Metro from Brookland (12 min walk, Red Line) or Fort Totten (20 min walk, Red, Yellow, and Green Line). The house is one block from the H buses, which travel across town through Columbia Heights to Tenleytown. Best of all, the Metropolitan Branch Trail is a 2-minute bike ride away and it will take you North to Takoma Park or south to the Capitol through Eckington and Union Market. This home will be available on/around July 12th. We are seeking a 12-month lease, with a security deposit equal to one month's rent, plus the first month's rent, due one week prior to move-in. Please note that the rental price does not include utilities or cable/internet service. The landlord is open to including utilities in the monthly rent for an additional fee--please inquire if you're interested. To ensure a good fit, prospective renters will be screened based on a combination of credit scores, overall credit report information, and rental history from the past three years. A background check will be conducted before finalizing lease arrangements. Applicants are responsible for the cost of this screening. We prefer credit scores above 669 and a monthly income that is at least 3.4 times the rent. Unfortunately, applicants with a history of collections will not be approved. We will not respond to automated inquiries or schedule tours based on system-generated messages. Please provide some information about yourself and your interest in the property.
