This private, ground floor apartment is perfectly located on Columbia's Historic Main Street. The apartment is the only one on the back side of the building, lending it more privacy and quiet than those directly on Main. The building is on a bus route and backs up to Columbia's paved walking path. It is perfectly situated within walking distance to parks, shops and restaurants.
It features hardwood floors, high ceilings and stainless steel appliances. The kitchen comes with a walk-in pantry, that doubles as a laundry room. The master bedroom has a walk-in closet with ample storage.
Shared amenities include a parking lot, shaded yard, and a coin-operated laundry located next door to the apartment entrance, in addition to laundry hook-up within the apartment. Tenants pay their power bill while w/s/t is included with rent.
This apartment will be available for move-in by late-November.
The rental price listed is for a 1-year lease.
This is a non-smoking building. Pets are not typically allowed, but we may make an exception for 1 cat. Our pet policy includes a $300 pet deposit and additional $25 per month.
Landlord pays water, sewer and trash, leaving tenants responsible for the Ameren bill.
Although renter's insurance is not required, it is strongly recommended.
