We are a mellow, friendly, quiet, professional couple who truly care about the comfort of others, especially the comfort of our renters (both 2- & 4-legged). Because we live upstairs, there may be some noise. We do our best to limit it and have added wall and ceiling sound reduction but we want to know if any noise bothers you. If chosen, you will have a chance to talk to past renter(s) before signing our lease. We offer this because we believe that renters, not just landlords, deserve references.
