Rm Avail 8/1 In Charming 3 Bdrm ❤ Of Clinton Hill

Looking for a new wonderful roomie to join as current one is sadly leaving the country! I am a female freelancer who works from home and lives in Mexico City during about a quarter of the year in the winter/spring. The other roomie is also female and works M-F in office. The apartment is a sun washed 3 bedroom in lovely Clinton hill on Clinton Avenue. This block was rated #31 by time out NY as one of the 50 best blocks to live on in NYC!

Clinton hill is a gem of a neighborhood, architecturally elegant with old mansions and huge trees where you can walk day or night and feel safe. It still has a tight knit community feeling. All amenities are within a couple blocks (several grocery stores, laundromat/dry cleaner, yoga studios, cafes), as well as Dekalb Ave's restaurant/bar scene and restaurants varying from Japanese to Italian just a block away on Myrtle ave, Fort Greene Park with its Saturday Farmers Market, and we are also just a 15 minute walk to downtown Brooklyn's Target, Trader Joes, Alamo Draft house movie theater and so many more conveniences and attractions. The closest subway stop is the G train to Clinton Washington or you can walk a bit further to the C train at Clinton Washington, but a hub of busses (B54, B62, B38, B69 etc) run within a block away and will take you to any train imaginable: A, C, F, Q, B, N, R, 2, 3, 4, 5, L.

I am looking for people who are experienced in living with roommates and/or know the qualities that are necessary to live compatibly with other people. Preference to people who do not work from home but most important is finding a good fit for our home. Friendly people but whom are aware of boundaries, mature and respectful of others private space and property. Employed, CLEAN, responsible in general but more specifically with on time payment of rent (without being asked), and shared cleaning duties as well as being conscious of what is ok within a shared space. For us home is a peaceful, clean (shoes off), sanctuary. We have a friendly and positive living environment so we're looking for people who appreciate that and want to help foster it. We don't have to be best friends but I think it's important we all get along well and that everyone feels comfortable in their home and wants to live a similar lifestyle. This is not a party house. It's a relaxing comfortable place to come home to, mostly quiet especially during normal sleeping hours. The occasional friend/overnight guest/out of town visitor is welcome but please be considerate with the frequency. Everything in moderation people, no heavy drinkers/drug users. Hopefully you are a kind, friendly and progressive individual who might want to share a meal or glass of wine occasionally.

The available room is somewhat small, but not by NY standards. Approximately 8.5x11, it's furnished and almost all furnishings are available for purchase if interested since roomie is leaving the country. It can also come unfurnished and can fit up to a queen size bed but a double bed is more comfortable in the space. There is plenty of closet space, almost a walk in closet in the hall which is all for you and has tons of shelving/space. The light filled apartment is old and pre-war, but with classic charms like exposed brick and hardwood floors. We have a sweet fire escape off the living room that looks out onto the buildings backyard making it feel like we have a balcony/outdoor space rather than a fire escape. friendly but keep it mostly on the fire escape same goes for smoking-absolutely no cigarettes inside.

A couple notes about the pictures and apartment; There is one shared bathroom with tub/shower. It has never been an issue and I've lived here for a long time with roomates. There is no laundry in the building but there is a laundromat one block down and we may be getting laundry in the building in the future. This apartment is charming but lacks any amenities. You get a wonderful neighborhood and tranquil place but no extras. Some of the pictures are a little bit dated so please be aware some images are not exact furnishings.

Available August 1st for a minimum of 1 year. Rent is $1375.00 and includes all utilities including wireless internet. The only additional utility would be for electricity IF you are a heavy AC user for those summer months.

Please email with a bit about yourself and we can set up a time for you to come by. Thanks for your interest and good luck on your search!
