About this House

Private Furnished Master Suite Enjoy the Home Mostly to Yourself

I'm offering a furnished master bedroom with private bathroom in my 3 bed / 2 bath duplex located in Thornton.

This is a unique setup I travel frequently and am only home about 4 months out of the year, so the tenant will enjoy the home to themselves most of the time.

My visits are typically quarterly and last about one month, though timing may vary slightly from time to time.

During my time away, the tenant will have full use of the home's common areas.
Please note that the additional bedrooms will remain reserved for my personal use and for my children when they visit (which is rare, as they live abroad), and will not be accessible for tenant use.

When I am home, I work remotely and have a small home office setup located in the living room during those periods.

The Space Includes:

 Furnished master bedroom
 Private bathroom
 Access to large kitchen & living area
 Enclosed backyard
 Small gardening area available for tenant use
Utilities + internet included
 Off-street parking available most of the year
 Quiet, established HOA neighborhood

Important:

While I am out of town, the tenant will be responsible for basic lawn care in the summer and snow removal in the winter to help keep the property compliant with HOA requirements.

Ideal Tenant:

 Enjoys privacy and quiet
 Is responsible and consistent with rent
 Doesn't mind light outdoor upkeep
 Is comfortable sharing common space during occasional owner stays

Additional Notes:

 No pets
 Background & credit check required
 Must respect HOA community standards

Move-in ready by March 1.

This is a great fit for someone looking for the feel of having their own place without the cost of renting an entire home.

Lease Terms & House Expectations

I'm looking to start with a 6-month lease to ensure it's a good fit for both of us, with the possibility of transitioning into a longer-term arrangement if things go well and expectations are consistently met.

All utilities are included, including internet.

To maintain a peaceful and respectful home environment, the following house standards apply:

 No smoking
 No pets
 No drugs
 No parties
 No unauthorized occupants
 No conflicts with neighbors

Please:

 Pay rent on time consistently
 Clean up after yourself
 Be respectful and kind
 Help maintain the yard
 Bring trash cans back in after collection day

You're welcome to use shared household items in common spaces just please treat them with care.

You are free to personalize your private room, but I prefer to keep the shared living areas decorated as they are. I will be updating the main spaces by removing larger family photos and replacing them with more neutral decor. My style leans a bit eclectic and warm old soul at heart

    "It’s quiet regardless of how many cars there are it’s peaceful, no loud music just crickets and birds. It’s as if the entire neighborhood is problay full of elderly hence why there are no loud noises not even at night. You may hear a car burn out if your outside from afar but that’s bout it. I see no other reason not to live here. I haven’t heard of any robins or killings in the area or gunshots, and no people using illegal drugs either."
