We are mostly retired, and enjoy quiet. We are active in our community, love nature and native gardening, are responsible home owners / managers, and are sensitive to excess noise, scents and animal dander. We are responsive landlords, and there is a guest bedroom available upon request for occasional visitors.

Our home is a friendly down-tempo space, in a reasonably safe neighborhood (all of midtown requires street smarts), with off street parking. It is clean and cared for, and situated on a double lot filled with native gardens, with a large porch, deck and hot tub, and good neighbors.

A good fit is someone who is quiet, doesn't need to move around a lot before 6 am or after 10 pm, responsible, financially solvent, kind, emotionally intelligent, communicative, excellent at cleaning up after self in community space, scent free as possible (cologne, perfume, personal care products, dryer sheets, scented cleaning products, incense, candles, plug ins, etc - we do our best knowing not everything is available scent free), and willing to abide by house agreements:

Remove shoes at back door and place on shelves.

As close to scent free as possible.

Park in a way that allows room for cars to exit garage (there's plenty of room).

TV, Zoom, Music in private space not amplified with speakers so others hear.

No regular TV watching or music amplification in community space (we check in with others first or wear headphones).

Check in with others around occasional TV use (e.g. sports, movies) or music amplification in community space.

Clean up after self in community space - clean stove, sink, counters, microwave, dishwasher, serving trays, dishes, etc. (we do general house cleaning).

Let others know when having guests in community space, to coordinate potential double bookings.

No eating in Living Room, use provided trays for Sunroom

Willing to minimize waste and energy use (reuse, recycle, turn out lights, turn AC off when not home).
