602 Barnett St NE for rent in Grand Rapids, MI
Here is a 2BR, 3 story apartment for rent in a calm, predominately owner-occupied neighborhood with no through streets and therefore very little traffic. Minutes away from downtown, US-131, and I-196, the location is ideal. This unit was originally a 3BR but one BR has been converted into a large walk-in closet. The main floor consists of the foyer, living room, dining room, and kitchen. Walking in the front door is the small foyer to store coats and boots before proceeding into the LR. This foyer can be closed off from the house which provides a nice airlock in the winter months adding to the efficiency of this unit. The LR has finished wood floors and a ceiling fan and flows into the DR where the finished wood floors continue and dimmable hanging table lamp (I don't think it qualifies as a chandelier but Lowes probably would). Passing through the DR leads into the kitchen which has been completely updated in recent years and includes DW, disposal, fridge w/ icemaker, modern stove, wall mount exhaust fan, ample cabinet/counter space, and luxury vinyl plank flooring. The stairway to the upstairs and upper hall have plush carpet leading to the BR's and bath. The BR's sit at each end of the hall and have ceiling fans and finished wood floors, sizes are approx 10x12. The "walk-in closet" room has berber type carpet and is approximately 9x12 with built is shelving with clothes hanger rods. Each BR does have its own small closet as well. The bath is basic consisting of a full tub with tiled tub surround. There is a vented glass block window as well as an exhaust fan, pedestal sink, and two medicine cabinets. In the hall just outside of the bathroom is a large linen closet. Last but not least, (well, maybe least because you would likely spend the least amount of time there), the basement is a utility room and houses the mechanicals, laundry facilities (machines are already present), and room for storage. (The 1000 sq ft living area estimate did not factor in the basement.) Going out the back door you will find a 16x16 shared deck off the rear of the house which rarely gets used but should. There is also a small covered private porch in the front. The yard, and neighborhood in general, has many mature trees providing green views and fantastic shade. The exterior of the home needs a little love in spots but the interior and overall structure are solid and maintained. Exclusive off-street parking for this apartment is located behind the home in the driveway, landlord reserves garage. Spayed/neutered cats are allowed. Rent is $1350 + gas and electric (landlord pays water/sewer). Structure is insulated, windows have storms, and modern furnace is in good shape so utilities are reasonable. The previous tenants stayed for 3+ years, which is generally the case with this unit, current tenant has employment disruption and is forced to move (on good terms with me). This unit becomes vacant in May and move in date is flexible but guaranteed ready for occupancy by June 1. A one year lease is required. Independent landlord, not a management company. Showings by scheduled appointment only.
