Available June 2021 ONLY: 06/01/2021 - 06/30/2021 Nice, fully-furnished, 2nd floor, one-bedroom apartment in a well-maintained 2-flat Victorian in the heart of the very walkable Tenney-Lapham Neighborhood. Beautifully restored woodwork. Gleaming parquet floors & newly installed slate in kitchen & bath. Brand new EnergyStar fridge and EPA WaterSense comfort-height toilet. New-ish gas stove. Classic bathroom fixtures including claw foot tub. Entire apartment: CLEAN. Large, classic old historic original windows throughout just restored to modern function & efficiency provide a nice, light-filled, open feel. For added comfort & privacy, all windows outfitted with new window warmers. Super insulated house. In winter, the modern, ultra-high-efficiency hydronic heating provides very even heat. In summer, a window AC does a nice job of cooling the whole apartment. New, EnergyStar front-load washer on-site, included. Nice furnishings: Full-sized bed + all linens (sheets, pillows, towels), chest-of-drawers, living room & kitchen furniture, microwave, kitchenware (cooking pans, utensils, plates, silverware, etc) and vacuum (new Miele) are provided. All you should need is your suitcase! Easy for a car-free or car-lite stay. One block to coffee, art & lake. Easy walk to the Capitol! 15 min bus/bike to campus. Bus lines: 2, 5, 9 & 10 (campus express), 28 (commuter express to capitol, campus & hospitals) and 81 campus late night bus a half block away. Responsible, conscientious, responsive owner/manager lives nearby (me). I can provide tenant references! Bike storage in locked garage. Your apartment is separately locked. There is another, separately locked unit downstairs, occupied by a PhD candidate. A note on the house: It is old. Very old. Though we have done major upgrades and always maintained it, it is OLD. 1884. It is not perfect. There is a slant to the floor. Everything is serviceable & comfortably habitable. But this is most ideal for people who understand & are used to the quirks of old buildings. It is not the suburbs. The Neighborhood: Tenney-Lapham, on Madison's isthmus, is one of the most beloved neighborhoods in the city. It is very walkable, very convivial. It is a mix of grad students, young professionals, families headed by professionals, trades people and service industry workers. Many of all of the above are involved in a myriad of creative pursuits Madison is known for. This neighborhood captures everything that makes Madison the easy-going & fun place that it is. It is close but not too close to the campus action. Nearby locales: Johnson Public House is, in my opinion one of the top three coffee houses in town; it is across the street. A classic sole-proprietor bike shop is across the street. Burnie's Rock Shop is a rockhound's/jeweler's paradise, beloved far & wide, just down the block. Half a block away is a classic owner-operated corner shop. But wait, there's more! Too much more for me to list here....! Tenney Park, 3 blocks away--Picnic Central in summer, Ice Skating Central in the winter. James Madison Park is two blocks away. It is famous for it's bathing/frisbee beach during our two weeks of summer. The rest of the year it is a great place to watch waves freeze in mid-curl! Last, and least, depending on the season, there might be a car parking space available for rent on site (just ask). There is usually an on-street parking spot within a block, but driving and parking around here is (thankfully) not suburban convenient.

No SmokERS/No Pets (really) Please, SmokERs/burnERs--of anything, anywhere--are not eligible. No pets (really). Standard Wisconsin Lease + Common Sense House Rules.
