My fiance and I are looking for a beautiful, cozy, unique home to rent beginning January 1. We are two working professionals in our 30s (no kids) who are moving up to Anchorage from Portland, Oregon. We would ideally like to be in West Anchorage (Turnagain, Bootleggers Cove, etc.), Midtown or near the Park Strip, Hillside, Rabbit Creek, or Eagle River -- but we'll also consider anything else in South Anchorage, as we aren't entirely familiar with that area. Our ideal find is a 2+ bedroom single-family home with a nice kitchen (I love to cook) and a fenced yard or a little bit of acreage in a safe neighborhood. 4WD-accessible in winter is okay, as we both grew up in the mountains driving in snow and have snow-ready vehicles.
We both love the outdoors and are avid downhill skiers, runners, hikers, and road bikers. Neither of us are smokers. We do have a dog, a 7 year-old black lab, and he is an extremely well-behaved, mellow, friendly guy who is house-broken and won't chew on your door-frames. We are willing to put down an additional pet deposit for him. We own a home ourselves in Oregon and are very respectful of what it takes to maintain a home, so we will be respectful and responsible in renting yours.
Please send me an email if it sounds like we are a good fit for your home. We'd prefer to rent straight from an owner as opposed to a management company, and the most we can afford to pay in rent is $1500/month plus utilities.
