For Rent: Sweet Old City Trinity With Startling Amount of Built-Ins

Though this rental isn’t available until early October, we suspect the competition will get fierce rather quickly. This trinity seems just lovely–two floors have original, refurbished hardwood floors; there are numerous space-saving built-ins; exposed brick fireplaces and other hollows provoke a feeling of history; and the molding and dark gray paint provide a hint of elegance.

The lower level is the kitchen, per usual, and with a washer/dryer to boot. Feel that tension melt away? The second story is just a bathroom and closets, though the hallway could serve as a dressing room, and the third floor is the bedroom, which has a skylight and a ceiling hatch to climb onto the roof. True, the bedroom has wall-to-wall carpeting, but it’s brand new, so no need to worry about fleas, cat spray or other unwholesomeness lurking within.
