One-year duplex lease in very walkable NE Olympia neighborhood located near San Francisco Street Bakery, the city's new food truck park, Mission Creek Nature Park, walking trails, two neighborhood groceries, Roosevelt Elementary and Reeves Middle School.
This duplex is also located in a low-car traffic and quiet neighborhood very popular with walkers, bicyclists and individuals who bus or drive to downtown Olympia.
This neighborhood is also just a short walk, bike or drive away for people who like to:
* walk along East Bay Drive with its gorgeous marine views of Budd Inlet,
* shop, socialize and hear music at Olympia Farmers Market,
* walk, bike or hike along a waterfront trail starting at Swan Town Marina,
* or visit 314 acres of upland forests and beach trails at nearby Squaxin Park, formerly Priest Point Park.
Available mid-May or June 1. Please message us for a drive-by address.
This mid-century style duplex is an ideal place for people who love the charm and beauty of red oak hardwood floors, mahogany paneling and maple cabinets. When at home, sit under a large outdoor covered deck and look out onto a large fenced backyard (divided from the other unit's backyard) and enjoy shade provided by an apple and fruitful plum tree. Or spend time in your clean and well-lit attached garage with remote door opener.
Unlike apartments, which can be noisy and lack privacy, each duplex side is divided by back-to-back garages, with each unit's bedroom located on the far outside walls. Which means more privacy and quiet for you.
Have several vehicles? No problem. Up to four parking spots available: in garage, in driveway and along street.
Because of our large fenced backyard, we also consider friendly dogs on a case-by-case basis. Sorry, but no cats or other pets please.
Tenant pays all utilities, including City of Olympia W/S/G and PSE Electric/Natural Gas. Though your bills may vary dependent upon your usage, the most recent tenant paid about $252 a month for all of the above, which does not include internet or phone charges. Assuming your utility usage would be about the same, and assuming no increase in current utility charges, at this time the monthly cost of living in this unit is probably around $1,875 in after-tax dollars ($1,625 for rent and $250 for utilities).
REQUIREMENTS:
