The home is accessed via the alley behind the lot and includes one space for a vehicle underneath the carport. Further parking is available along either 13th street or Cedar Avenue for a second vehicle or guests. The building has a single entrance (with a punch code operated deadbolt) that is located in a semi-enclosed courtyard space behind an 8 ft tall fence.

The home is available around August 6, 2021 for a tenant signing a 12 month lease. The two homes on the property are not metered separately and as such, nearly all utilities (trash, water, sewage, gas, and electric) are divided monthly between the front and rear house and this cost is added to the total rent. The home is Google Fiber ready but this service is however metered separately from the front unit. As such, internet is the sole responsibility of the tenet. The home also offers central air and heat and remote control operated ceiling fans in each bedroom as well as the upstairs living space. Pets are not permitted in the house and the shared yard is not entirely closed in. Despite this, the property feels very secluded and each of the windows in the downstairs bedrooms includes solar shades for privacy and relief from the afternoon sun. Yard maintenance will be the responsibility of the tenet. Please take a look through the attached photographs and reach out if you have any questions or interest. Utilities are split with Unit A on the property.
