We have an unfinished back yard. We are in the process of putting in an actual back yard, which will consist of pavers and some grassy areas.
We have a gas bbq grill on the back deck.
We have a window air conditioning unit for the rental bedroom, and fans that can be used in the summer.
In the winter we do not overheat the house. The way our heating system works heats the bedrooms/outer rooms more than the central shared spaces [living, dining, and kitchen]. We try to keep the bedrooms at a comfortable temperature, but we generally live on the cool side.
Our daughter lives with us, in one "wing" of the house. She works as well.
We welcome any questions you may have!

Private rooms in Shared House
Private Rooms for Rent
Private bedroom & bathroom, and your own large open-loft living room.
Available unfurnished, or semi-furnished for an additional $50. NOTE: these pictures are shown with furniture that we no longer have. If you would like pictures of the empty rooms we will be happy to take those.
12'x11' bedroom, plus walk in closet and private bathroom. Newly renovated, freshly painted.
Bedroom door has a keyed lock for additional security/privacy.
Ceiling fan and new lighting. Window air conditioner available as well.
Bedroom and living area are both wired for TV - cable box in living area, another can be ordered for the bedroom. Large loft living room overlooks the main living room, which is not used often.
Shared kitchen, laundry and entry way/main floor. Kitchen is fully functioning, newly remodelled with plenty of dishes for everyone. We have a kitchen table as well as a dining room.
We also have a full size refrigerator and a freezer in the garage, so there is plenty of room to share.
Living and dining room will be available for shared use.
We are within reasonable distance of many public transportation options and great bike paths. We are about a mile from Greenburg Road and Hwy 217, easy access to I5, and we love the location; we can get pretty much anywhere quickly and easily.
Ideally we are looking for 1 or 2 people (friends, roommates, couple). This could also be a perfect living arrangement for a college/med school student(s), or even someone looking for short term (6 mo or so) housing. We both work, and have our college-age daughter living at home as well who works a full time job. We have plenty of room for everyone to have their own space.
We have 2 cats and 2 dogs. Ideally we are looking for someone who loves animals and maybe can't have any of their own right now.
We are continuing the work on updating and renovating our home. We have started with the "rental wing" as we have come to call it, and are just finishing up a complete remodel of the kitchen. Nothing drastic, just making our home a little more current! This includes the back and side yards as well. The side yard has raised garden beds and a compost pile that will be available for your use after some clean up. Perfect if you love to garden or grow your own veggies.
We are not rowdy party animals, we are also not the super quiet home bodies.
Non-smokers preferred (smoking outside if you must!) and definitely no drugs! Plenty of room for wine and beer in the garage fridge, we just prefer that it's not excessive.
We will be putting our house on the market within the next 1 to 3 years. Any renter is welcome to stay until the house sells once we put it on the market. We will notify you once we have made the decision to list the house, and before it is put on the market.
Rent (unfurnished) is $550 plus $150 for utilities, per month. We reserve the right to up the utilities to $200 per month is the bills increase substantially.
Semi-furnished for an additional $50 per month. [We have a corner couch, tv, tv stands, desk, and other living room type furniture. No bed at this time. We do have a futon frame]
Utilities include power, heat, garbage/recycling, water, TV (extended cable, no HBO), high speed wired/wireless internet.
Deposit is $250, $200 refundable on move out with no damage, $50 will be used to cover carpet cleaning and repainting. "House rules" are very fair and we have very reasonable expectations for keeping the kitchen and common areas clean and orderly. Rent is month to month, with a 30 day notice.
Street parking in front of the house.
Email only for now, we have had issued with spam calls on our phones from Craigslist. Shoot us an email with questions, info about you and what you are looking for. If you prefer to text or chat, give us your phone number and we will be happy to text back.

bedroom
The bedroom has a sloped ceiling on one side, walk in closet, and ceiling fan with light. There is also a window air conditioner for the warm summer months. The walls are a light beige color. The router for the internet and TV are located in this room, and unfortunately cannot be moved at this time - it can pretty much be hidden behind the curtain. There is a black curtain rod with floor length navy blue curtains over the window. The carpeting throughout the house is blue as well.
bathroom
The vanity in the bathroom faces a window so we put in a bathroom cabinet that has mirrors on all sides, including the inside of the door so that it opens to become a front facing mirror. The side serves as a more close up mirror. The shower door will be replaced soon. It is fully functional, just a little on the old side so we will be ordering a new one. The space around the toilet is open to the side so there is room to add extra storage.
open loft living room
All of this furniture is no longer in the rooms. The rooms are rented unfurnished. We do have some furniture available that can be purchased or rented as well. The windows will have a curtain rod with curtains over them. The curtains we have available are beige light-blocking half length curtains [they do not go to the floor]. You are welcome to supply your own as well.
kitchen
The kitchen is newly remodeled. We are waiting for the microwave that will be installed above the stove.
The tile for the backsplash is on order so that will be installed soon as well.
