Welcome home to Bradford Station where new construction meets effortless living.
This is not your average rental. From the moment you pull into your private two-car garage, you'll notice the difference. No worn carpets. No tired appliances. No patched walls or outdated fixtures. Just a brand-new, never-lived-in end-unit townhome with fresh finishes throughout and everything you need already waiting for you inside.
This is move-in ready, the way move-in ready is supposed to feel.
The home
Step inside to an open-concept floor plan that breathes. Natural light pours in from extra windows on two sides a privilege that only end-unit living offers filling the great room with a warmth that interior units simply can't match. The open kitchen flows seamlessly into the dining and living areas, perfect for everyday living and easy entertaining.
When the evenings cool down, settle in by the cozy fireplace one of the rare touches that makes this home feel genuinely special at this price point. Out back, your private covered porch is the perfect spot for morning coffee or an evening glass of wine.
Every room is finished and ready:
Washer & dryer already here, no laundromat runs
Full-size refrigerator already here, no first-month appliance scramble
Window blinds throughout hung, aligned, done
Spa-style owner's suite with private bath and walk-in closet
Two additional bedrooms spacious, with generous closet space
Two-car garage plus driveway parking
The HOA takes care of all exterior lawn maintenance, so your weekends stay yours. No mowing, no raking, no worrying about curb appeal.

Why this home
Most rentals ask you to compromise. You find the right location but the appliances are old. Or the finishes are nice but there's no garage. Or it's new construction but it backs up to a busy road. This home doesn't ask you to compromise. It's brand new. It's an end unit. It has the appliances, the garage, the fireplace, the blinds, and the porch all included. It's in Madison City Schools. It's ten minutes from Redstone Arsenal and two miles from Toyota Field. And the HOA cuts the grass.
If you've been searching for the one rental that checks every box, you just found it.
