Additional Perks • One dedicated off-street parking space • Furnished (most major pieces provided) • Quiet, well-maintained building • The property was owner-occupied for many years before being fully rented and reflects the level of care typical of an owner-occupied home Well Suited For • Students or others seeking walk-to-campus convenience • Renters who value space, light, and a central location • Those looking for a comfortable home base during the academic year
