BRAMBLETON STUDENT HOMESTAY Overview
Owner-occupied 6-bedroom, 5.5-bath single-family home in Brambleton (Ashburn area) offering a furnished homestay suite for one or two college students on a joint lease. The student space is built around a large finished basement suite (~1,493 sq ft) plus access to the main kitchen, laundry, and common areas. This is a quiet, school- and work-focused home, not a crowded apartment or party house.

HOUSE & HOUSEHOLD
The home has 6 bedrooms and 5.5 bathrooms, so there is plenty of room for privacy and connection when you want it.
o I live here full-time.
o My older son is away at college most of the year and mainly home on breaks.
o My younger son is a high-school senior who lives with me every other week (alternating weeks with his mom).
o I also travel for work roughly one week each month, so many days its just you and one other person in a large, quiet house.
There are no small children, and the household rhythm is built around school, work and rest.

BASEMENT STUDENT SUITE (Approx. ~1,493 SF)
Once build-out is complete, both students move into a private basement suite designed specifically for two roommates:
o Two private furnished bedrooms - each able to function as a sleeping/study room)
o Central Rec Room that serves as the main living/study lounge
o Private full bathroom dedicated to the suite
o Basement bathroom dedicated to the suite
o Walk-out double doors to an exterior stairwell for light, fresh air, and a secondary exit
o Hard-surface flooring in the main areas for easy cleaning
o Walk-out double doors to an exterior stairwell for light, air, and a secondary exit

NEW KITCHENETTE & FOOD PREP:
The suite is getting a new basement kitchenette, which is in its final build-out phase:
* Full-size 30" refrigerator
* Dishwasher
* Sink with disposal
* Over-the-counter microwave
* Cabinet storage and counter space
* Portable hot plate/burners for light cooking
Until all final finishes (countertop / backsplash) are fully buttoned up, there is already a functional appliance setup in the basement and you will also have full use of the main kitchen upstairs for heavier cooking and shared meals. When you inquire, I can give you an up-to-date status on the finished kitchenette relative to your preferred move-in date.

LAUNDRY
o In-home laundry with washer/dryer located on the upper level near the bedrooms.
o Basement suite tenants have regular access to this laundry; any future dedicated basement laundry would be a bonus rather than a requirement.

RENT & LEASE STRUCTURE (Per-Suite, Not Per-Person)
This homestay is structured as a 2-bedroom basement suite, leased as one unit (not individual room leases). Rent is quoted as the total price for the entire suite; how two roommates split it between themselves is up to you.

STANDARD SUITE RENT
* $2,200/month total (Roughly $1,100 per person when two students share on one joint lease)

SPRING 2026 SHORT-TERM OPTION
Because we are mid-academic-year, Im offering a Spring 2026 short-term option through May 31, 2026:
o Available for one or two students renting the entire basement suite.
o Spring suite rate is currently below the standard $2,200, with a promotional 2-student Spring rate around $1,950/month total (about $975 per person if two students share).
o In some cases, a discounted solo Spring rate is available for a single student renting the entire suite; any promotional solo pricing will be discussed and confirmed in writing before lease signing.
