We'll have a room available on June 1 for someone to join our 3-bedroom share.
The apartment is on the 2nd floor of an owner-occupied pre-war 2-unit home in Flatbush on New York Ave. It's a 6-minute walk to 2/5 Newkirk stop and a 10-minute walk to Brooklyn College/Target/ALDI/Flatbush Junction. Grocery stores are nearby on Nostrand Ave.
The apartment has original hardwood floors and high ceilings. Common spaces include kitchen/appliances (microwave/dishwasher), a living room/dining area (with AC) that gets lovely natural afternoon light, a bathroom, and a small shared bedroom for occasional guests.
The room has a big closet and can come with a full-sized bed/dresser/AC.
Rent includes all utilities, Fios Gigabit WiFi, and washer/dryer usage (no tedious bill splitting or laundromat runs).
We currently have someone coming in to clean the common spaces bimonthly, which is $25 each time.
We are looking for a mature, down-to-earth roommate. We foster an environment of mutual respect, open communication, cleanliness, and peaceful coexistence. We value considerate individuals who appreciate personal space and maintain a healthy noise level. We cherish a serene living atmosphere, free from excessive drinking or drug use. Please note that we're unable to accommodate pets or smoking, and we kindly request no couples.
The current roommates are a Polish artist/teacher (she/her), chill, creative and way too busy; a Mexican architect (she/her), polite, laid back (for a marathon runner), early riser; and a Mexican artist/teacher (she/her) (moving out).
The lease is month-to-month, but with a six-month minimum.
If interested, please tell us about yourself (job, age, how long you've been in NY, interests/hobbies, etc.). Social media links are a plus.
I am a teacher and art student at Brooklyn College. I love to travel and have been around the world. I enjoy meeting fellow travelers (I sometimes host Couchsurfers), cooking, and gardening. I'm an activist and support the arts. I own the house, and I live on the first floor.
Application (credit check), proof of income, references, first month's rent, and a security deposit.
