Description

Welcome to 38A Forest Avenue. This large apartment feels like its own home, and comes fully furnished and equipped with everything you could need. Private wrap around gazebo front porch, hardwood floors throughout
with high ceilings and restored period details. Large front office that can be used for home based business. Formal dining room with original built in china cabinet and extra room for a sitting area. Large updated gourmet kitchen with stainless appliances and granite counters. The living room has large windows, original tin ceilings and a hearth and flows well to the kitchen, dining, and office. The main floor also houses the shared laundry room with high efficiency front load washer and dryer. Off the laundry room is the full bathroom on the main floor for this unit. Take the stairs from the formal foyer to the second floor that offers another full bathroom, a large primary bedroom with an adjacent dressing room and mirrored doors leading to the walk-in closet. There is also a second bedroom on this level large enough to have a recliner and also offers good storage space.

Located on the first block of Forest Avenue, you are within walking distance of many of Bangor's amenities; downtown is a quick walk or drive as well as Eastern Maine Medical Center and the Bangor waterfront.

All utilities are all included in the rent as well as all landscaping, mowing and plowing. One year minimum.
Excellent references required. No pets, No smoking.

If the ad is still up you can assume it is still available. I will take the ad down as soon as it is rented. I am happy
to show the unit and I am local. One of the owners lives in the other unit. I do have this rental posted other
places, but if you see it posted at a lower rent or different terms it may be a scam.

Fully furnished. Plowing and lawncare provided ( tenants shovel steps and walkway ) Off street parking for 1+ vehicles
