Available for move-in March 1st for flexibly length, ideally 3-6 months with option to renew afterwards. $4,650/mo.

Rate includes ALL utilities (gas, electricity, internet, heat and water, no cable). $200 monthly cleaning by longtime cleaning services. The window of the bedroom opens to view the rooftops of businesses below. Franklin Park Beer Garden is behind us, so this apartment is not ideal for a light sleeper.

The bedrooms are about 10ft by 10ft, and 12ft x 10ft, and furnished with a queen bed (larger room) and double bed (smaller room). Both have comfortable memory foam mattresses and shelves and drawers for storage.

About the apartment: It is a 2 bedroom, one bath apartment with wood floors, tall ceilings, a large open kitchen/dining room area with stainless steel appliances, and large sunny living room with fabulous office nook (great for working from home!). It is often described as spacious and cozy, with the perk of decent storage space (hard to find in NYC!). It is the first floor unit of the building, which only has three units total. It is directly above a coffee house that has the best coffee in the neighborhood. :) The window of the bedrooms open to the fire escape and rooftops of businesses below - a very NY little escape. I sometimes venture onto the rooftops for beers and conversations with friends, or just for sunlight. Franklin Park Beer Garden is behind us, so this apartment is not ideal for a light sleeper. The living room is setup to be a nice place to hang -- with a DVD player, smart TV, record player, and even a CD player. There is an office nook with printer and some spare office supplies. There is no washer/dryer but there is a 24hr laundry mat on the block. There is also no dishwasher so be prepared for hand-washing cleanup. The shower has excellent water pressure and hot water consistency. Overall it's a charming apartment with some standard quirks (like sometimes the toilet handle needs a wiggle). There are plants in the apartment that will appreciate some watering, so ideally the subletters enjoy plants!

The apartment is located in the neighborhood of Crown Heights. We are jump away from subway lines 2, 3, 4 and 5 at Franklin Avenue stop, as well a 10 minute walk to the A/C train at Franklin Avenue. In addition to being above a coffee shop, we are also surrounded by all the essentials – burger joints, pizzerias, burrito places, wine shops, bodegas, markets, dry cleaning, bars, sushi places. Literally within only steps. We are also a short walk to the Brooklyn Museum, Library, Botanical Gardens, and Prospect Park.

I am looking for a positive takeover of the space while I explore work opportunities elsewhere for, 3-6 months initial commitment preferred and then month-to-month is fine thereafter. Pet-friendly (just a pet-cleaning fee on a case-by-case basis).

Photos are up-to-date but a video of the space will be shared to those who reach out. I am normally not local to NYC so viewings will be arranged around availability of the current subletters.

About This Lister

About the renter: Bonnie (hi, me!) is a filmmaker. I’ve lived in the apartment for 13 years. So it has a touch of my personality throughout. I am an Alabama-native, so I tend to be hospitable. The apartment is my oasis so a respectful and tidy subletter, who is a non-smoking inside (don't care what you do outside of the apartment!). I'm developing projects outside of the state, hence the status although I am planning to be gone indefinitely.
