Ideal Guest
The house is large and there is room for us to be both social and private. I have baby grand piano and would be happy to share it. The kitchen is shared but I usually eat in the living room in front of the fireplace. You may use the dining room or screened-in porch. I have a standard poodle and we walk in the early morning and in the late afternoon. My ideal guest would be a couple or someone who is respectful. I would appreciate help mowing the lawn, raking and shoveling snow.
Optional Task help for rent reduction
Estimated Monthly Rent reduction of $300 for a minimum of 6 hours per month of help. Details should be discussed when you contact the Host.
