Description
1 room for rent in a 4-bed, 2-bath apartment. Room is for one person only.
A little about the household: we are all females in our late 20s to 40s (Chinese-American, Japanese-American and Korean-American). We are an artist, social worker and dance instructor. Some of us are currently working from home. We are generally pretty laid back, but very serious about the cleanliness of common areas (also a no-outside-shoes household).
The apartment is located less than a block away from the 59th Street subway station in Brooklyn with N (express) and R (local) trains-- 30 mins to lower Manhattan (Canal Street), 40 mins to Times Square.
Laundromat is a block away. Several restaurants, delis, supermarkets and post office within a 2-block radius.
The room is around 80 sq ft, street-facing, and has 1 window. It fits up to a full size bed, desk and wardrobe. The room is unfurnished.
The kitchen has the essentials, such as a dining table, chairs, microwave, stove, fridge.
Internet is included in the rent. Utilities are NOT included. Utilities usually range from $50-80 a month (gas, electricity).
We are looking for a female, CLEAN individual that doesn't bring back overnight guests-- this is a must. We'd like a roommate that picks up after themselves and can share household chores, such as cleaning the bathroom and kitchen. We are very serious about cleanliness and have had roommates moved out because they didn't think we meant it during the interview when we said everyone is responsible for cleaning duties. The ideal roommate should be respectful of our common living areas, does not bring home guests, and is quiet during appropriate hours.
I get asked a lot about the issue of overcrowding at the apt since there are 4 bedrooms, so I'll answer it here. Yes, there are 4 bedrooms, but there are also 2 bathrooms, so with a human: bathroom ratio of 2:1 (and you can always use the other bathroom if the one you normally use is occupied), it's never been a problem. In terms of kitchen usage, we cook at different times just because our schedules aren't the same and we don't cook elaborate meals, so that is usually not an issue with us. Also, each person gets their own pantry in the kitchen (check out the kitchen photos) so storage also isn't an issue. In addition, there is a living room situated in the middle of the apt, with 2 bedrooms and a bathroom to either side of it. So you don't actually see the roommates living on the opposite side that often due to this layout.
A government-issued ID, social security number and proof of income (W2 or 4 pay stubs) are required prior to signing the lease. To move in, you'd need first month rent and one month deposit. You will get your deposit back if your room is not damaged in any way when you move out. Rent is due on the 25th of every month.
Please respond to this post if interested. Tell me a little about yourself and your availability for viewing. I will be showing the room this week, virtual-viewing preferred though in-person can be arranged as well. I apologize in advance if I don't get to everyone due to the volume of incoming requests. Thank you.
