"PLEASE NOTE: My housemate and her five-year-old daughter + their two cats live on the first floor of this two-story apartment (shared kitchen, backyard, and laundry room).

I'm away 6/4 - 6/21 and am looking for someone to sublet the second floor of my apartment. My housemate teaches piano so very occasionally, a parent will sit in the middle room of the second floor for an hour. Other than that, you will have the second floor to yourself. I love my place very much and I'm looking for someone who will treat it with care and be respectful of my housemate and her daughter. You would be renting the lovely parlor level of a three-story brownstone.

Your floor features a plant-filled dining/living room that looks out onto the front garden and a quiet street, a second living room that I use for movie nights, and a spacious bedroom with ensuite bathroom. Hardwood floors and beautiful original detail throughout. On the garden level is the kitchen, laundry room, and backyard that is shared with my housemate and her daughter. This rental would be ideal if you plan to have a fairly quiet stay and plan to eat out a lot. The kitchen is off-limits starting at 8:30pm each night.

The dining/living room features a gorgeous old fireplace with hand carving, a simple wooden dining room table, and a big comfy couch to lounge on. I pay a lot of attention to lighting so I think you'll find that it's a warm and inviting atmosphere in the evenings.

The bedroom comes with a queen bed, large closet with ample storage space, and antique hardwood desk. It has two windows in the bedroom and one in the bathroom that look out onto a spacious and green backyard. The bathroom is clean, bright, and airy. Original historic details in the bedroom include crown molding and an ornate fireplace/mantle.

You will have access to the back and front yard. The backyard is lovely and has ample room to garden in, if you enjoy that sort of thing. The house also includes a high-quality, in-unit washer/dryer, eat-in kitchen with brand new appliances, including a beautiful stove and kitchen island. We're in a prime Bed-Stuy location, just a few blocks away from Saraghina, Barb's, and Zigzag and walking distance from the public library, parks, and A/C train.

This house is a true find and I think you'll be pleased with your stay!

About This Lister

I treat my space with a lot of respect and care and am seeking a responsible subletter to do the same. I love plants (as you can see in the photos) and have had a lot of fun making my place inviting and cozy. I've been living here for two years and I really love the place. I use she/her pronouns.
