Hi, I'm the owner of this lovely 3BR apartment in Crown Heights, which has 1 bedroom available starting Oct. 1 (or sooner if needed). Your roommates are Sarah and Oscar, both professionals who work outside of the apartment.
The apartment is on the garden level of a limestone townhouse on a wide stretch of President Street between Troy Ave and Schenectady Ave. The common space is an open layout with a comfortable furnished living and dining area. The kitchen has stainless steel counters with a spacious sink and a convenient over-the-sink drying rack. It has good storage and a dishwasher, along with a big fridge, gas stove, and built-in microwave. There is also a washer/dryer in the apartment.
The bedroom for rent is a little over 9’x11’ and fits a full size bed plus a small desk, and there is a pretty good sized closet. The window faces the quiet backyard. The rent is $1295/month. Electric, gas, and internet bills are split evenly among roommates.
The apartment is super convenient to public transportation, just a 2 minute walk to the 3 and 4 subway entrance on Schenectady Ave (the 4 runs express to Manhattan), and it's near several bus stops. There are many groceries, restaurants, cafes, and shops nearby. Prospect Park is a short bike ride away and there is a smaller park a couple of blocks away. Local library branch is 2 blocks away.
We’re looking for someone who will fit into a relaxed and relatively quiet lifestyle. Note that one roommate has a cat (we aren't able to accept any more pets though.) If you’re easygoing, considerate, responsible, and clean, you’ll be a good fit.
If you have any questions, please ask. Looking forward to meeting you!
I'm the owner-landlord of the house but you'll of course get to meet and chat with the other roommates when you visit the apartment. A bit more about me: I live in Spain, I'm a former executive editor of Fine Cooking magazine and I own a business that sells paella pans and Spanish food and cookware. Despite not living close by, I'm a responsive owner and past tenants have given me very positive reviews.
