Finn Hill Kirkland house $3,750/mth Overview: 2,350 sq ft. 5 bedrooms, 3 baths, 2 kitchens, large family room downstairs with easily enough room for robust ping-pong games, 2 fireplaces, on a cul-de-sac, with some view of the Cascades. The house is a 4-minute walk to a forest park with a loop trail, access to Goat Hill and the trail down to Juanita Beach Park. Walk/bike to Sandburg elementary and Finn Hill Middle schools (with tennis courts), and a few minutes further to Big Finn Hill Park. It is about 8 minutes by car to St Edwards State Park, with its trails down to Lake Washington, and the new high-end St Edwards Lodge and restaurant there. Downstairs are two bedrooms, a family room, 3/4 bath and a small kitchen. This is great for extended family situations, but technically speaking is not a completely separate apartment. Great area downstairs for kids and their computers, games, or for a friendly in-law(s) arrangement, law student, etc. The current family living here will be traveling internationally for at least a year, starting December 1, 2024. They have greatly enjoyed the house and its location, and are ok with accommodating tours for prospective residents - best on Saturday afternoons. PPS. Of course applicants will be reviewed for references, rental, criminal and credit (700+) backgrounds. It is expected that gross monthly income will be close to, or greater than 3 times the monthly lease rate. Twelve-month lease to begin. Residents handle all utilities and the yard, which is fully fenced. The property manager greatly enjoyed living in this house some years ago, and is interested in maintaining it at an ever-improving level. PS. Some fine print . . just to help make things as clear as possible up front. No smoking, inside or outside on the property. Pets can be ok, but let's discuss our strong interest here in keeping the neighbors reasonably happy. The charming Dutch family which just returned to Europe had a 170 pound (lovable) dog. Your references will be checked, employment verified, and past rental history reviewed. Deposit of one month of rent + $500.00. First month's rent due in full before move in.

Renter's insurance is about $9/mth, and can be very helpful, although we do not have hurricanes here. . . while waiting for the big quake. Will accept a 'reusable tenant screening report.'
