Friends have called it a "GEM" and a "KILLER DEAL"
Apartment details:
Its a spacious unit on the second (top) floor with a private entrance in a 10 unit apartment building. The neighborhood is quiet & residential, with tree lined streets.
The bedroom for rent has two south-east facing windows that get tons of palm-frond-filtered light. It can accommodate a queen bed, desk, & bookshelf etc. The closet has a hanger bar and a mirrored door and there are additional storage cubbies above. There is a ceiling fan and this room is generally the coolest room in the apartment in the evening, especially if you keep the shades closed in the afternoon.
The shared area is a spacious, open floor plan living room + kitchen, and a large covered patio that is currently furnished with a table and chairs and a small container garden. There is a built-in wall unit A/C in the living room.
Located in a quiet, tree-lined street near the border of Glendale and Atwater Village, this apartment is close to all the cute commercial districts nearby:
<5 minutes to Atwater Village
<5 minutes to Griffith Park
<5 minutes to the Americana
15 minutes to Highland Park / Silverlake
Easy access to the 5 & 134 freeways
Parking:
There is one covered parking spot available for $100/mo.
Otherwise, there is always street parking within a block or two.
Me: I'm a mid-thirties freelancer in the entertainment industry, primarily working as a costumer. I grew up in LA & Santa Fe, NM and spent my early 20s in NYC. In my free time I enjoy cooking, making clothes, walking, hiking and going to yoga, dance class & arts events. Once a month I host a community crafting hang where friends come over and work on their own projects together. I'm social but not a partier. Its very important to me to keep common spaces respectfully clean and organized, though I am not a neat freak. I live best with someone who shares that outlook.
You: Mature, with ability to communicate with ease about issues as they come up. Able to cover rent without issue. Neat and open to creating a shared cleaning plan. Hopefully share a desire to make the space feel like home and enjoy each other's company but also give each other the space we need. I've had great experiences in the past with roommates who've become friends and that would be ideal! But also open to less involved set-up. What matters to me the most is maintaining a warm, supportive environment where we both can come home and feel at ease. Major plus if you love food and enjoy occasionally cooking/eating together! Unfortunately this will not be a good fit for someone with pets.
***The apt is more furnished and decorated now than in the photos of the common space. The bedroom will be UNFURNISHED even though the photo shows it furnished***
