I am looking for someone to share my place starting in the beginning of December, for a month or longer. You can live here full time or part time- out of state commuters welcome (possible rate discount). I am looking to share my apartment with someone who is compatible with me and my 14 year old kid, (who lives with me every other week) and our friendly and sweet cat Jay.

You can come home and close the door and work/rest and I/ we won't bother you! Your room is very private and has room for a small desk, but there is also ample shared space for computer time etc. in the dining room.

I travel a lot so there will be times when you have the house to yourself. I prefer someone who does not work from home full time, and likes to keep a clean and calm home.

Bonus- I will be away from Dec 9-15 so you'll start with a week solo! I will also most likely be a way for a chunk of January.

This home is a spacious, first floor 3 BR apartment in a 2 story building with one family upstairs.

Features:
A good, clean kitchen with a big fridge, a gas stove/oven, front and backyard/ outdoor space, nice neighbors, lots of light, ceiling fans, hardwood floors, good heat & hot water, bathtub & shower, fast internet. The house is full of art and quality furnishings.

The neighborhood is full of amenities: citibikes, laundry, delis, groceries, international markets, amazing restaurants and cute cafes and is a 15 minute walk to Prospect Park.
We are close to Park Slope and an easy drive to/from Manhattan due to the Battery Tunnel and it's super easy to get on the BQE from nearby Prospect Expressway. I can get to Chelsea in my car in 20 min when there's no traffic.

*Accessibility note: there is a small outdoor staircase to get into the building.

About This Lister

I am a queer mid-career artist and love my home where my 14 year old child, our cat Jay, and I live.
We are relaxed people who are tidy and like to be at home when we are not out and about at work and school.
Every other week, when I am not parenting, I tend to be out a lot. I work in DUMBO and spend the full work day and sometimes more at my studio there, although here and there I work from home.
I occasionally have dinner parties but other than that the house is pretty quiet.
I request that my housemate is one person-
no couples, and no frequent overnight guests.
The kitchen and bathroom are shared spaces that I like to keep clean so I prefer to live with others who agree with this idea.
