We have a room opening up in our big, airy, light-filled 3-bedroom apartment on the third floor of an elevator building. We're a 4-minute walk from the B/Q at Church Ave and a 6-minute walk from Prospect Park. The apartment is 1500 square feet (!) and recently renovated, with hardwood floors, many windows, and a lot of storage space. There's no dishwasher or laundry in the building, but there's a laundromat across the street. The space includes an eat-in kitchen, living room and foyer, and three big bedrooms. (I know I keep mentioning the size, but if you come over, you'll see what I mean. A recent visitor: "Wow, I feel like I'm walking into a suburban house!")

Our apartment tends to be tidy, clean, and peaceful. We like to cook, so the kitchen is well-stocked with appliances and cooking tools, and to read—so there are a lot of books. We enjoy chatting and hanging out in the kitchen when we cross paths, but we mostly do our own thing.

This apartment is a gem and we’ve managed to build a space that feels like a real home, not just a crash-pad, so we’re hoping to find someone who is really the right fit. (Our current roommate is only moving because she’s leaving New York, and we’re sad to lose her.) We’re looking for someone who is clean (important!!), considerate, and who’s invested in living in an actual home, rather than one of those depressing NYC apartments where strangers basically coexist.
