THIS attractive multi-level home in the popular Shwe Taung Gyar area of Bahan township has relaxing living areas and pleasant surroundings that are likely to appeal to expatriate residents.

Available for rent at the end of this month, the quarter-acre property can house four tenants in its two single and two master bedrooms.
There is also room for a housekeeper in a separate building with toilet beside the house.

The house comes furnished and additional items can be supplied through negotiation with the owner, although tenants are required to sign on for at least a year.

A phone line, five air conditioners, a five KVA generator and a satellite dish are included, making this home ideal for those who have only their clothes to unpack. The area also has one of the best power supplies in Yangon.

There is one master bedroom on the ground floor, as well as storage space and a living room with direct access to the property’s single garage.

Unusually, the kitchen and dining room are upstairs, on a level a few steps down from the home’s other three bedrooms and a relaxing living area, which comes complete with bamboo furniture, a large wall unit and a television.
A door from the kitchen leads to a veranda outside where a set of steps run down to the staff accommodation.

The master bedroom on the upper level has access to a modest balcony overlooking the front of the property, which is a mix of lawn, plants and concrete. The paved areas are showing their age – the house was built about 30 years ago – but should serve their purpose well as parking space or a place to play badminton.

The owner said he plans to tidy up the yard and paint the house before new tenants move in.
