Property Description
This is not your typical rental!
If you've ever driven down Briar Creek Road, you've probably noticed this striking Mid-Century Modern duplex nestled into the trees, with clean lines, vintage character, and undeniable curb appeal. Built in 1950 and lovingly maintained, this rare gem offers style, comfort, and serenity just minutes from the heart of the city.
Surrounded by mature trees and a lush bamboo forest, you'll feel like you're living in a peaceful retreat while being just one mile from Plaza Midwood's vibrant shops and restaurants, and a short drive to Uptown via Independence Blvd or Central Ave.
Highlights include:
- Architectural charm with original mid-century design elements and modern updates
- Large primary bedroom with wall-to-wall closet and a stunning 10-foot-wide window overlooking the bamboo forest
- Second bedroom has large closet perfect for guests, an office, or both
- Newly renovated bathroom with beautiful tile floors, updated fixtures, and sleek modern finishes
- Open-concept kitchen and dining area with natural slate countertops gorgeous and eco-friendly
- Inviting fireplace (for candle ambiance only, no wood fires!)
Outdoor Living:
- Sunny side yard ideal for a vegetable or herb garden, lounging, or just soaking in nature
- Carport + driveway along with a private storage area with your own washer and dryer
Energy-Efficient Features:
- On-demand tankless hot water heater saves energy and keeps bills low
- Double-paned, easy-open windows fresh air when you want it, insulation when you don't
Pets are part of the family—cats are always welcome here! Small dogs (30 lbs or less) approved case by case. $250 refundable deposit and $35/month per pet. No aggressive dog breeds, and since the yard isn't fenced, outdoor time requires supervision since there are neighbors in other side of duplex.
If you're looking for a truly special place to live that's stylish, serene, and just the right amount of unexpected you've found it. Come see why this home turns heads and steals hearts.
Tenant pays for gas, electricity, and water. Security deposit and last month's rent due at signing.
