Hey all!
My roommate Des and I are looking to fill TWO ROOMS in our Bushwick apartment for a JULY 1 move-in.
ROOM 1: $1200, smaller, room for a full bed and a dresser. Private heat/AC controls. Window to ventilation shaft.
ROOM 2: $1450, good size, room for full bed, desk, dresser, private exit to the backyard
LOCATION: Five-minute walk from the L and the M at Myrtle Wyckoff. Three minutes from Bushwick's best almond croissant at L'impremerie. Ten minutes from Maria Hernandez Park. Close to all the arts and culture Bushwick has to offer.
I’ve loved living in this apartment and it really feels like home. It's great to enjoy the roof and the trees and furniture of the backyard on a summer day. I love having a spare room for creative projects. And I can't overstate how awesome it is to have full size washer/dryer and dishwasher in NYC. Plus, there's heat and AC in every room, which is clutch all seasons.
Every time someone comes over they say some version of "Whoa, this feels like a house!" Or "I can't believe you have all this space." And they are right! I'm not sure I've been in any other apartments with as much space (outdoor/indoor) as we have here.
This is a 4BR / 3BA. As mentioned above, we have a rooftop, washer/dryer, backyard, dishwasher, AC and a finished basement with a workout area and a bonus room for your creative projects.
I'm a writer and Des works in catering.
We’re friendly, clean, and pretty low-key—we love a kitchen chat but mostly keep to ourselves.
This isn’t a party house, and we’re hoping to keep the energy easy and grounded.
WHO THIS PLACE IS GREAT FOR:
- You like your space clean and peaceful
- You’re self-aware and respectful about shared spaces
- You’re down to chat sometimes! : )
- You communicate clearly and clean up after yourself (like once you're done cooking, you clean same day etc.)
- You're queer/LGBTQ+ friendly and generally good vibes
No pets—we already have one very sweet, very elderly dog who runs the house.
If this sounds like your speed, send us a message with a bit about yourself and what kind of home you’re looking for.
Only going to respond to folks who give a little more information about themselves, because we'd love to find someone who is down to co-create a nice vibe in the home!
Matt (he/him)
I'm a screenwriter and author who loves living here in Bushwick. I've lived here for 15 months and I'm excited to stay another year. I'll be the one who is showing you the space and I am happy to answer any questions about the neighborhood or apartment!
In my spare time, I have a decaf coffee business. So if you're a coffee snob who can't handle caffeine (like me), I'll always have a fresh cup of the best decaf in the cupboard!
I've got three sisters. Two are local. You'll definitely meet them if you live here. (They are great!)
Current tenant

Let me know about your pet. WIlling to consider depending on the circumstances!
