About This Home
As of July 2016Beautiful Scenic Hill rambler on a cute fully-fenced corner lot! Major top-to-bottom renovation nearly complete (photos show its current state). New windows & blinds, flooring, cabinets, counters, sinks, faucets, stainless appliances, dishwasher, lighting, interior & exterior paint, fence & landscaping. Open and bright floorplan with two large bedrooms on opposing ends of the home, each with its own full bathroom. Less than a mile to Kent Station shopping mall and transit center, where you can catch a movie, a bus, or the Sounder train to Seattle!
Location:
- Safe and friendly hilltop community is so close to downtown yet feels exclusive and separated. Full of dog-walkers and bike riders!
- Walk score of 69
- DART bus route 914 runs past the house every 30 minutes and will take you almost anywhere in Kent for free!
- 0.7 miles (15 minute walk or take the bus) to Kent Station where you'll find the Sounder train station and the best shopping, restaurants, and movie theater in Kent
- 15 minute drive to Seatac airport
- 20 minute drive to downtown Seattle (27 minutes on Sounder train)
- 20 minute drive to downtown Tacoma (35 minutes on Sounder train)
- 1 block to Kiwanis Park, 3 blocks to Mill Creek Canyon Earthworks Park
- Close to K-12 schools and both Highline and Green River Community Colleges
- Downtown Seattle skyline is clearly visible from the front yard (see Space Needle fireworks on New Years Day and 4th of July!)
Features:
- Single car garage with new opener has plenty of shelving and room for storage
- Off-street parking could accommodate up to 4 cars or boat/RV plus plenty of street parking on this corner lot
- Loads of closet space: Each bedroom has a full closet plus two hall closets and a linen closet
- Big kitchen with newer appliances and eat-in bar
- Dedicated laundry room with newer W/D
- Skylights brighten the master bath and entry area
- New digital high-efficiency water heater
- Ceiling fans and portable A/C units
- Free-standing wood stove supplements newer high-efficiency wall heaters
- Garden space in the large fenced yard (the lot is much larger than the 3300 sf listed due to the now-defunct alley easement and storm drainage ditch along the edge of the front yard)
- Friendly and responsive homeowner lives in Seattle (not a management company). I treat my tenants like family and respond quickly to their needs.
Rental Screening Criteria:
-$29 application fee required for each applicant 18 years of age and older (covers credit and background)
-$30 lease origination fee
-No criminal background
-No evictions
-650+ credit score
-Verifiable gross income of 2.5 times the monthly rent
