About the room

PRIVATE 800 SQ FT, 1 BEDROOM, 1 BATH APARTMENT can be 2 bedroom $1,200 per month ~$280 utilities and renters insurance (for one person or $295 for two people)

Apartment will be rehabbed in early July 2021: new gray carpet in bedroom and living room (same tile in kitchen/dining room, hallway, and bathroom); and, gray paint with white trim

800 sq ft one bedroom / one bath basement apartment on farm. It can also be set up as a two bedroom (if you want to find your own roommate); the living room becomes a second bedroom with a small common area (as the pictures show).

No more than two adult humans and three humans total due to zoning ordinance.

We rent the first and second floors of the farm house as a vacation rental, mostly to wedding guests.

Basement tenants bear a certain required amount of PAID clearly defined emergency and vacation responsibilities and small tasks here and there. It is generally around 10 to 20 hours per month. For a list of typical responsibilities, please see below.

We have a regular groundskeeper and housekeeper to handle the vacation rental; however, it is possible for the basement tenants to help out with projects. It is also possible for tenants to take on housekeeper responsibilities (8 hours; nearly weekly) and/or groundskeeping responsibilities (8 hours weekly during the growing season).

It may be possible to have a horse or other livestock with additional rent (to be discussed).
