** Update (5/24) ** We have paused all tours and have begun reviewing applications. Thank you to everyone who toured and/or submitted an application. * Available July 1, 2025 * Shown by appointment only! Please do not disturb our lovely tenants. This adorable Craftsman has been completely renovated while still retaining its traditional charm. Original divided-light windows bathe the home with natural light and enhance the beauty of hand-hewn cedar posts that were crafted from timber felled and milled onsite. The wall-to-wall, ceramic plank flooring is durable, hypoallergenic, and helps maintain indoor temperature. An open concept living and dining room is anchored by a cozy fireplace with a cleverly disguised hook-up for your flatscreen in the mantel. Quartz countertops in the kitchen are flanked by brand new stainless steel appliances and include an all-in-one washer and dryer tucked under a counter of reclaimed fir. A large ( 12 x 13) bedroom with an adjacent full bath rounds out the main floor. Upstairs, operable skylights in the (12 x 12) loft keep the home cool in the summer. With exposed brick and windows looking onto the garden and overlooking the street, the loft is also an ideal space to work from home. Outside, the home is surrounded by woodland. Mature landscaping adds to the serenity and privacy of the 1/4 acre lot. The expansive (583 sq. ft.) deck was built to preserve the home's 50-year old rhododendrons. The south-facing garden is perfect for veggies or chickens and automatic drip irrigation keeps the grounds lovely year-round. The mid-island location is also ideal for commuters. Bus #106 stops right out front during weekday commuter hours and a detached shed provides additional storage or parking for a small to midsize vehicle. Bike to Battlepoint Park and the Grand Forest. Downtown is only 5 miles away by car. Rent includes water, sewer, quarterly landscaping service, well and septic maintenance, and regular pellet stove cleaning and maintenance. All other utilities, (which include electric, internet, phone, and garbage) are paid by the tenant. The cottage is on a well and septic system and is best suited for no more than two occupants. No smokers or pets are permitted (we love animals, but are severely allergic). Minimum 1 year lease and rental insurance required. Showings are by appointment only. Please do not disturb our tenants.
