Beautiful Private Room in a Special Apt.

I have a private furnished room to lease in a beautiful apartment in the east 70's near 3rd Ave (Manhattan). This is a full-service building with a doorman, elevator, WiFi, laundry in the basement, and attentive staff.

The apt. is in the back of the building and amazingly quiet. It's a one-bedroom - you would have the bedroom and the living room would be my domain. (The kitchen has somewhat limited cooking facilities – so you won’t be making turkey dinners!) I've had roommates before, utilizing the apt. in the same way - that worked out quite well.

I'm a mature, single gay guy, with a very quiet home lifestyle. This is a coop apt that I own and take great pride in.

I have just a few rules - no smoking (I can tolerate you smoking outside the building - but I prefer to have a non-smoker). No drugs, minimal alcohol (I would prefer none at all), no loud noises, no pets. I do not drink, smoke, or do drugs.

This apt. is fully furnished and decorated in an Art Deco style. There is very little room for a roommate's personal possessions, beyond your clothing.

I'm looking for a 3-month minimum commitment and a month-to-month arrangement after that. Your rent would be $ 2000 monthly. Should we come to an agreement, I would need $2000 as a security deposit to secure the arrangement, and upon your moving in, I will need the first month's rent of $2000.

We would have a written agreement laying out all these specifics.

I am friendly and casual, open to conversation should that be mutually agreeable. I am semi-retired, work part-time, and spend a great deal of my time at home on my computer or reading, or watching TCM.

I will need some documentation of your identity and employment/income - without getting overly invasive.

Well, I think I've covered the basics fairly well.

I look forward to hearing from you.
