Hi,

I am renting a room in my 3 bedroom house. It is located about 15 minutes outside of Kalamazoo between Plainwell and Richland, about 2 miles from Lake Doster on East Baseline and 1st street.. You would be 15-20 minutes from Western Michigan U's and Kalamazoo College's campus. We are 10 minutes from Plainwell and 45 minutes from Grand Rapids.

The house is in a private and mostly secluded spot on 6 acres. There is a pond and river going through the back yard. There are lots of trees. It is very peaceful.

Included in the house are 2 bathrooms. One has a bath, the other a shower. Washer, Dryer, Fireplace, and Dishwasher included. The house is about 45 years old. There is a two story garage/barn for some storage. Parking would be in the driveway. The house is furnished. There is a bed in the room being rented. Bring your own or it can stay.

Rent is month to month currently. We can make a longer lease if you like. $350 a month plus $350.00 deposit. If the deposit is too much up front, we can work something out. This includes the following utilities.. Gas, Electric, Trash, Culligan, Water/Sewer. Long distance phone will be extra.. I would be willing to get direct TV with a roommate. .

I am an open minded people. I am not looking for a neat freak, just someone who takes care of their things most of the time. I have 2 cats, so no pets please unless they are caged. I am a retail manager. I work a lot and am rarely home. I do love to have fun and enjoy life to the fullest, whether a quiet night at home or a doing something out.. The person we are looking for should be honest, trust worthy, reliable and dependable roommate. We don’t mind if you have friends over or wish to entertain either. If you are a smoker, it must be outside. No drugs. Alcohol is fine. Female roommate, 18-40 preferred. We both get along better with female roommates.

If you are interested and would like to know more, email me at MichaelBrainard@ameritech.net. I will be happy to answer all your questions.

I hope to hear from you soon.
