This 2-bedroom apartment has helped three past tenants launch the next chapter of their lives:
One earned a BA and left to pursue a Master's degree.
Two others saved enough to buy their own multi-family properties.
We're looking for the next inspired resident to continue the tradition.
Features:
2 bedrooms + a bonus office/study space
1 full bathroom
Kitchen and living room (can be a bedroom)
Private laundry room with washer/dryer
On-site gym
Within walking distance to public transit (train/bus stations, state highway & interstate 195, historic downtown New Bedford)
Ideal Applicant:
You're a hard-working individual or couple with a 4 5 year plan. Whether you're working toward a degree, saving for a home, or building your business, this space is meant to support your growth, not just house you. I live in the bottom unit and care for my elderly mother and children. I'm an IT educator/schoolteacher, wellness coach, and meditator. Our home is a sanctuary: quiet, clean, intentional. That means:
No loud music
No drugs, alcohol or drama
Respectful communication & cleanliness
We're looking for people who bring that same intentionality to their lives and living spaces. This is an ideal space for grad students, educators, professionals, or families in a season of growth. I'm especially open to tenants who value peace, self-improvement, and contributing to a respectful home environment.
Water, trash & heating oil included. No smoking. Pets OK.
If you're looking for more than just a place to live and want a space that supports your goals and values, send a message. The photos show a nearly vacant unit that is being turned over and renovated- not what it will look like when finished. I will update the post when those are complete.
Owner pays for water and heating. Tenant pays for gas and electric. Month to month lease.
