About This Home

As of March 2025

Beautiful, light-filled, two-bedroom apartment with hardwood floors, a dishwasher, and plenty of closet space available early March. Located on the third floor of a renovated Victorian mansion, this apartment has all of the special touches of a classic Germantown home such as high ceilings, a deep farm sink, and tons of natural light. The master bedroom fits a queen bed comfortably with enough room for a dresser though you may not need it with all of the ample closet space. The second bedroom or den can fit a double bed and a small dresser. This room also has a closet for extra storage. The previous tenants used this as a workspace, and easily fit two desks and a standing shelf with plenty of room. The living room has windows on three sides, a closet, and more than enough room for entertaining. This apartment is less than ten minutes from the Regional Rail, and only a block away from Ultimo Coffee. Tenants pay gas, internet/cable, and electricity. Shared laundry is located on the first floor and is coin-operated. Parking is off-street in a first-come, first-serve parking lot. Cats friendly. Strong credit and verifiable income are a must.
