About the room
We live in a beautiful, quiet neighborhood in the Four Corners area that is close to downtown Silver Spring, Takoma Park, and Wheaton. It is walkable to the nearby Woodmoor Shopping Center with a Starbucks, Italian Deli, bakery, smoothie cafe, CVS, bank, UPS, Chipotle, Subway, Beer & Wine store, and more. Safeway and Trader Joes are just outside the neighborhood. There is plenty of on street parking. The area across from the house is wooded with a short walking path down to Northwest Branch creek. The room for rent is at the front of our home with a small private hallway, full bathroom, and bedroom. Right now we have it furnished but we can clear if out if you have your own things to add. The front dining room, kitchen, and backyard are shared spaces. All utilities and internet are included. Laundry facilities however are not included but there are laundry services nearby. We have solar panels, a tankless water heater, compost service, and in general try to be as green as possible. We have a backyard firepit area, a pond, 4 chickens, a veggie plot, and a honeybee hive. We will happily share our backyard bounty with roomies! We also have a very old lab pup (15yrs!). This is our family home and youβre welcome to interact with us as much as youβd like. We will also totally respect your space and privacy. Weβve hosted renters and college-aged exchange students for the last few years. Welcome!
About the roomies
We are a family of four, three adults and an older teen. Our eldest is a junior at the University of MD and is occasionally home. We are professionals and work typical business hours during the week. The house is lively but we respect each others need for quiet, space and privacy.
