About this House

Great family home in a cul de sac neighborhood with great existing neighbors. The house sits across the street from a neighborhood pet/kids grass play area with more open parking. The house has 3 bedrooms, 1 bathroom and a powder room in the basement. The house is bright with large windows all throughout emitting great sunlight. This house has an included garage and driveway parking, hardwood floors throughout home, central heating/air. Newly redone backyard with cobblestones great for hosting bbqs. There is also a mini front grass lawn. Some amenities include free washer/dryer/refrigerator and partially used furniture on premise that can be kept per request or removed prior to move-in. The house is freshly repainted. I have personally lived in this home for ten years and is 5-10 minute drive from all major highways 76 and 95, 10 minutes from the airport, depending on traffic 15-25 minutes from center city.

Utilities are not included and will be the sole responsibility of the tenant. Parking is free. Specific items on lease can be negotiated beforehand. Security deposit consists of 1st month deposit, last month deposit and a $1000 damage deposit which all totals to $3700. The house is pet friendly but there will be a $25 monthly pet fee. Finally, renters must provide proof of income, recent paystubs and 2 year income history plus provide a credit report that prospective renters must be responsible for. Background checks will also be performed. This also goes without saying but no illegal activity will be done on premise. ex: loud after hour parties and dealing drugs etc.
