I'm renting out a room in my 2 BR / 1 bath apartment in Bed Stuy (close to the Clinton Hill / Bed Stuy border), available January 1, 2026. Rent is $1025/month, which includes all utilities and WiFi.

About the apartment and bedroom:
-Floor-through apartment with lovely natural light
-Third-floor walk-up
-Open plan common space, which is fully furnished and can't accommodate any more furniture or storage
-The common area faces the street, while both bedrooms face the backyard
-The bedroom fits a full bed and dresser and, depending on the specs, a desk and/or shelves, and has a closet
-The bedroom is unfurnished
-I foster cats, and there will be one foster cat in the apartment at the time of move-in. The apartment can't accommodate any additional pets.

I do want to note that the common area is fully furnished and decorated; the person who moves in will of course be welcome to spend time in and make use of the common area but won't be able to store things in it, rearrange furniture, change the decor, or change how things are done in the apartment, generally (and the rent for the room is reduced in recognition of that).

About the building:
-Owner-occupied building on a quiet one-way street
-The owner and her family live on the garden and first floors, and two other tenants live on the second floor
-Everyone is cordial and friendly

About the neighborhood:
-A five-minute walk to either the Bed-Nos G or the Myrtle-Willoughby G
-Lots of great coffee shops, restaurants, and bars nearby
-Only a five-minute walk to Herbert von King Park
-Brooklyn Public Library branch right around the corner
-Multiple laundromats in easy walking distance

About This Lister

I'm Laura (she/her). I'm a consumer protection lawyer in my mid-30s, and I’m a friendly introvert who’s home a lot of the time. I’m an avid cyclist, and I love crosswords, reading, roller skating, and cooking/baking. I occasionally get totally sucked into vapid TV shows. I don't smoke and I only drink on occasion.

I'm looking for a roommate who's considerate, works outside the apartment, and is committed to keeping common spaces clean. Sound travels easily in the apartment - if you're looking to play loud music, have frequent guests, or bring the party home, it won't be a good fit. I work remotely on a regular basis and my desk is in the common area; because noise travels enough to overhear phone conversations, I'm hoping to find someone who works exclusively outside the home or otherwise will be out during the workweek.

If you think this sounds like a good fit, reach out and tell me more about yourself! If it seems like we might be a good roommate match, we can plan a time for you to come see the space.
