Great space for those seeking a small, environmentally conscious space to live, with full kitchen access, on plenty of land. Friendly, helpful neighbor with a dog right next to the space the house is parked, but otherwise quite remote location for those seeking closeness to nature. 10 minute drive into Downtown Hillsborough, and 15 minute to the heart of Carrboro. A great spot for people wanting space to garden and nest into the land. Property is very large with plenty of acreage, chickens, turkeys, and other animals in enclosed areas on site. Occasional horses come to the area. Property owners are kind friends, potential tenants would need to meet house owner and property owners to ensure they jive with all people.
Bedrooms: 1.5 bedrooms (one 8.5'x5' small room nested beyond the kitchen, fits a queen size mattress, and a lofted space that fits a king+, depending on where you'd like to sleep).
Bathroom: Brand new W/D combo unit. Brand new bathtub with fountain bath feature, shower, and handheld spout. Composting toilet for humanure. Cedar beams for the bathroom ceiling and aromatic cedar planking for the built in bathtub.
Kitchen: Newly repaired full size luxury fridge with energy saving capacity, 5 burner gas stovetop, dual deep sinks for plenty of kitchen activity. Roof hanging pots and pans rack. Composting tumbler outdoors for food waste. Prior tenants have used a large countertop toaster oven for oven cooking.
Minisplit AC/Heater unit.
Berkey water filter can be borrowed if wanted during lease term for drinking water unless you have your own water filter you'd like to bring.
Plenty of windows and natural light, tall, 12' ceilings with cedar planking. Whitewashed wood walls.
Additional storage in the floors, shelving included near the bathroom. 12' raw cedar shelf in the kitchen space.
