Description
*** BACK BY REQUEST *** PETS WELCOME ***(We are offering again this sweet apartment between Leesburg and Hamilton. There is a chance this basement efficiency may be used by those guests who are staying upstairs in the main house, if they need more room than the 3 bedrooms provided there. Please be aware that the calendar may reflect this and therefore contacting me with your dates would be advantageous.)This walkout efficiency is in the basement of a log house on 16+ acres & overlooks over 700 acres of conservation farm land. It is 5 miles to Leesburg about 2 miles to Hamilton & not far from Northern Virginia or the big cities of Washington, DC (~45 mi.) and Baltimore, MD (~80 mi.).Many people, visiting here on business for a short duration, have found this to be convenient to many local businesses as well as those in Northern VA. It is also well situated for those needing to stay close to loved ones in hospital and as a temporary residence while seeking permanent housing in the area. This cozy apartment has a living room/queen bedroom area that’s divided by a screen, a large eat-in kitchen area & a separate bathroom. There is also a nice side yard area to relax in. Some other furnishings include a nice sized desk, couch & a couple of dressers. The kitchen is equipped w/ a refrigerator, microwave, small convection oven, coffee maker, toaster, blender and a single burner. All bowls, pot with lid, casserole dishes, etc. needed for cooking are supplied as well as glasses, dishes & utensils.We have just completed the renovation of the main area of the basement just outside this efficiency. It has a large room, about 600 sq. ft., with a cozy sitting area for watching the new 65″ TV and/or the wood stove (used only in winter months = December – March). This is where the pool table is too.To discuss further, try leaving a detailed message at four 3 and another four, the number five, a 3 and another 5, lastly twenty-five and then 40.ENJOY!!CONTRACT TERMS:1.

The number of people may not exceed 2 person for a sleep-over unless agreed upon by Owner.5. 50% of the total rental price and security deposit is due at the time of booking, or 100% if within 60 days of arrival, or the booking is not secure and the apartment is made available to others.6.

All noise must be kept at a volume that will not disturb neighbors; disturbance of others will terminate the rental with no refunds.13. Wireless internet is available through StarLink. It is not strong or consistent and therefore not adequate to guarantee Zoom calls or heavy business use. It is NOT to be used for gaming and the more devices in use at the sometime will seem as slow as dialup! (It’s not great but much better.) We are hoping for Fios at the end of 2024.14.

We have participated in a ZOOM meeting but with just the two of us here, so not sure how the speed would be with other guests being online at the same time, especially streaming concurrently. There is no usage limit at this time but have also read that the speed will slow with excessive use, so again no gaming is allowed.The modem/router is in the basement utility room. PLEASE do not change anything there, even turning it off and on again, without discussing with me first.Please understand that the usual rules apply as for any public computer:This service is not to be used for any illegal purpose.We are not responsible for any harm that may come to your computer as a result of using the service we provide to our guests.Service is not guaranteed.We are not technicians and cannot help you with your computer.The router must not be moved at all; fees will occur if it is.All references in the main contract to “items”, “property” or “equipment” include the router.By your payment you are accepting the above information and responsibility entailed.
