I will cover all utilities (heat, hot water, electricity, gas, and internet)!

You would be taking over my lease starting on March 1 and ending on August 31 (subject to lease extension if desired).

The apartment:
2BR/1BA in a 5-floor walkup on a quiet UES/Yorkville block (mostly families). Hardwood floors throughout. Comfortable living area furnished with a sofa/futon, coffee table, and rug, plus an A/C unit. Open kitchen with good cabinet space and a dishwasher. On-site super; maintenance has been straightforward.

The available room:
Unfurnished, front-facing bedroom 8’7” x 9’5”, with two windows and good natural light. Fits a queen bed and desk comfortably and has a full closet and radiator heat.

Laundry & neighborhood:
No in-building laundry, but wash-and-fold/laundromat options are less than a block away. Supermarket about 2 blocks away. Plenty of restaurants, coffee shops, gyms, and convenience stores nearby.

Transit:
Q train around the corner and 6 train two avenues away. ~20 minutes to Times Square typically.

Good fit:
Looking for someone tidy, respectful of neighbors, and able to commit to the full sublease term.

About This Lister

I’m one of the current tenants and will be working abroad for the next few years, so I’m looking for someone to take over my portion of the lease for the remainder of the lease term (ideally for the full March 1 – August 31 period). My roommate (23F) will be staying in the apartment and will be the main point of contact during your stay.

I work full-time at a large engineering firm, and my roommate works at a research facility in Manhattan. I’ve lived in NYC my whole life, and my roommate moved to New York about a year ago.

We keep the apartment clean and well cared for and are looking for a responsible, respectful subletter who will do the same (especially with shared spaces and neighbors).
