Gardeners Welcome: A more detailed list is provided after an initial phone interview, but the outlines of successful tenancy are common sense courtesy: keeping the walkway and entry of the apartment swept once a week and reasonably tidy, respect for shared maintenance spaces and the owner's space, and parking in the designated on-street site. The tenant is expected to maintain their garden area, which requires light lawn mowing for 2-3 months, light weeding and occasional watering during the hottest months. Soaker hoses are set up for most of the beds. The homeowner does most yard maintenance and pruning. *This is a no-smoking\Vape\Drugs environment. This is a private detached cottage on the property of an artist and designer. We are looking for a compatible person who will enjoy the amenities of a uniquely beautiful natural environment. Ideal for a single person or couple with a minimalist lifestyle. Although the apartment was designed by artists it is not intended to be used as an artist studio or workspace. The apartment opens onto a south-facing garden with the option of having your own flower and vegetable garden in raised beds. The yard is semi-private, and it is important that the person living in the apartment be at ease with some shared visual spaces, as a part of the yard for the apartment and the house look out onto each other. Photos show the view from the cottage yard looking to the house, and visa versa to give you an idea of the degree of privacy of the outdoor space.
