A few guidelines to help determine if this property is a good fit for you:

  • Tenant is responsible for all utilities and lawncare.
  • Please park in the driveway only. Driving or parking on the lawn or brick patio is prohibited.
  • We request that no artificial air fresheners be used in the house (glade plugins, scented candles, scented fabreeze sprays, etc). These chemicals can persist in a home for years. I have some chemical sensitivities and we want to keep the house free of irritants, both for myself and for others who could have respiratory reactions.
  • Smoking/Vaping is not allowed inside any buildings, near any entrances to buildings or anywhere on the property where smoke could enter the house through doorway or windows.
  • We require all tenants to carry renters insurance for a minimum of $100,000 in coverage. It’s usually a nominal monthly fee from your preferred insurance provider.

OUR FAVORITE THINGS ABOUT LIVING IN GRAHAM NC

There is so much to love about this great little town. Here are a few of our favorite things...

 

“I love the proximity to daily needs. Downtown Graham is a half mile away. I can easily go to the bank, post office, library, and grocery store in a very short amount of time. It makes running errands easy. Plus, you can enjoy a meal out at a restaurant, relax at a coffee shop,  and even watch a movie all within walking distance from the house. It’s so convenient.”

“I love the easy access to the interstate. It makes it very easy to get to places around the Triangle and Piedmont area. You can easily jump on the highway and be at the beach or in the mountains of Asheville in just a few hours. We have two international airports about 30-40 minutes away and Amtrak is just 10 minutes. Living in Graham means you are close to desirable areas such as Chapel Hill/Carrboro, Saxapahaw, Hillsboro and the Durham Tobacco District but here we have more affordable living options and less traffic.”
