Hey all, we’re away for a while working on creative projects abroad and looking to sublet during that time.
Perfect for visiting artists, and in the best neighbourhood! The apartment is two blocks away from the Jefferson stop on the L. So, getting to Manhattan can't be easier. The space itself is a large open plan studio/loft apartment with high ceilings & wooden floors, located on the ground floor. It's an artist loft vibe, kinda industrial, but recently refurbished, so nice and bright (fresh paint, etc) and newly varnished floors.
Laundry and dryers in the building, operated with an app, and always available or so it seems! Nice neighbours!
If you know this part of Bushwick, it needs no introduction. But if you don't know - it's two minutes to House of Yes, great bars and restaurants, small coffee shops, etc, and our favourite dive bar, the Cobra Club (pool table! karaoke!).
The space includes a sofa (plus fold-out sleeper sofa for when you have guests), tanker desk, high speed wifi, queen bed, and kitchenette (fridge/freezer / induction hotplate / air fryer / griddle etc). There's also a projector for movie night and a smart tv. We’ve recently made some changes to make it cosier and better use of space, so there is more storage in the kitchen. The clothes you see hanging in the pictures will be moved and kitchen space will be cleared for you, etc.
The bathroom is located across the hall - there is a private lockable toilet with basin (exclusive use) through one door and a lockable shower cubicle through another door that is shared with two other tenants whom we have never bumped into.
It's basic, but most importantly it's super clean as you will notice very busy cleaning ladies making sure everything is cleaned every single day.
As mentioned, there is ample space for you to put clothes, etc, and we will leave an extra rail out should you need. it's an easy move-in as it’s ground floor. We’ve let before on listings to creatives who have also used it as a live/work space.
We're subletting while we are abroad, and I leave on December 21st - let me know and I can show it. We’re also happy to chat about all the details or questions you might have via video call.
We have an arrangement with a friend in the building to let you into the building where you can find the apartment key in a lockbox on the apartment door if I don’t see you before I leave.
Queer couple; filmmaker and photographer working mainly in the documentary realm.
We travel a lot (being ex-pats!), and are away regularly for work. We love being in the heart of it all and enjoying what Bushwick has to offer. We've had the place for just a few months, so it's also pretty new to us.
We're keeping the cost low (basically what we pay for it), but we'll be selective about who comes to stay. It's our home, and we'd like to keep the good vibes alive!
Current tenant
This is a sublet, minimum: 2 weeks - preference given to longer stays. I was inundated with short stay requests at my last posting - so I can’t respond to requests shorter than the minimum! Not suitable for pets or young children.
Maximum: whole time offered (possible leeway at the end for a couple of weeks or so if needed)
Deposit dependent on duration, but $500 for 2 weeks, $1000 for entire duration. To be returned after rental has ended and space is deemed intact, etc.
Additional charge: the space is ready for you, and we'd like it to be left in the same state (with bedding washed also). $150 cleaning fee required if we arrange the cleaner, or you can arrange your own so that is ready for the next guests/us to return.
Small dogs ok, but just not on the sofas, and you’d be responsible for a deeper clean afterward.
