*No smoking anywhere on the property including on the back patio or front stoop.
The building is an owner-occupied two-family home. We live in the upstairs apartment and while we try to be courteous, our home is an old building with creaky floors and you may hear us walking above you. *The laundry room is also the boiler room and is used for storage of building materials, tools, etc. There may be very rare occasions in which we need access to this area for maintenance of the utilities located in this room – water heater, furnace, electrical panels, etc – or to obtain a tool. We will arrange this in advance where possible. Read More
