About 116 W Hill Ave S
Stepping into this vintage 3 BR/2 BA home will instantly trigger a wave of nostalgia when you see it. The layout is that of an historic farmhouse, with no center hallway. Most of the home features original hardwood floors, with updated tile floors in the kitchen and dining room. You will find updated appliances in the kitchen, to include stainless steel refrigerator and dishwasher and a gas stove. The living room and one bedroom are accented by lovely, original fireplaces and mantels (neither fireplace is usable). Beadboard ceilings throughout really give the place a feeling of yesteryear. Both bathrooms have grab bars to assist with mobility, with one of the bathrooms featuring a jetted bathtub to ease those stiff muscles after a long day. Large windows let in plenty of light throughout. This historic home displays a few unusual touches, such as a laundry room that was once a porch (the washer and dryer are not owner maintained, but are available for residents to use). The rocking-chair front porch is a perfect perch for sitting and watching the world go by. In the sizeable backyard, you will find a large, modern storage shed, perfect for seasonal decorations and lawn equipment. The second, wooden shed is locked and for owner use only. City water/sewer; central air; natural gas heat; on-demand gas hot water heater; Housing assistance not accepted on this property. Pets considered with PetScreening, Pet Deposit and Pet Rent; Residents automatically enrolled in a Resident Benefit Package for $30/month, which includes 24-hr maintenance hotline, tenant portal, quarterly delivery of HVAC filters, credit building, and more; and residents are required to purchase renter's insurance with 100K liability to landlord.
