My partner and I are looking for a new roommate in our Kensington apt in Brooklyn beginning January 15th until July 31st with the option to stay if it's a good fit!

We are looking for one person to take over two rooms (bedroom + office) + their own full bathroom.

The (awesome) details:
* Rent is $1425/month for a bedroom (8ft 10in X 12ft 4in), an office (7ft by 10.5 ft with a small closet), and your very own full bathroom (yep you read that right. An entire bathroom of your own).
* Utilities/internet will run between $70 - $115/month per person depending on the season, and we put in an order for shared household items (cleaning supplies, butter, cooking oil, paper towels, etc) each month at $15 - $25 per person.
* Dishwasher, and a washer/dryer in our unit
* If you work from home, and have always wanted a separate office space (or art space or audition studio, or yoga/workout space): you are in luck, because that is what is on offer!!
* The rooms are currently 'lightly' furnished (The pictures are from what our old roommate did with the room, and only a few pieces are left behind). The office has a nice chair and desk in the office, as well as an air conditioner to use. The bedroom has a full-size slightly used mattress, bed frame, side table, small lamp, small shelving tier, pillows & a set of sheets. (If you don't want to use any of those things we can find a way to move them)
* It is located in the gorgeous Kensington/Ditmas Park area of Brooklyn convenient 10 min walk from the Q and F/G trains, 25 min walk to Prospect Park (Lefrak center skating anyone??)
* We have a great neighborhood gym a block from our door.
* Poly/ENM/Kink/Queer/Trans 🌈 friendly roomies
* Our Management company tends to be very reasonable in both the yearly rent increases & their response time to any issues, and the plumber they send (Sinclair) is awesome and we love him.
* We have an exterminator that comes to the building every two months on schedule!

The “need to know” fine print (because I believe in transparency):
* First floor apt., so…bars on the windows, but a short few stairs to get into the apt. (accessibility yeah!)
* The bedroom has two windows that face buildings with a small 'yard-type' clearing. While there is some natural light, it isn't the 'brightest'.
* The kitchen and living room are next to one another in an “open floor plan”. There is enough separation for us, but a thing to note and be aware of.
* Non-smoking household (special 420 note: if you are a “leave no trace” type as it relates to odor, or have a gadget for the air/smell: light indulgence is fine. We don’t want your rooms or the apt to smell like it 🙏🙏🙏.)
* The bedroom is not huge. It is about 8ft 10in X 12ft 4in with a small closet (great for those who desire minimalist living). The pics have a full size bed (The mattress & frame can stay if you want it from the person moving out). It’s possible to fit a queen in there, but it would take up the majority of your room.
* If you work mostly from home, know that my partner and I do on a hybrid-type schedule about 2-3 days each week. Chris’s office would be next to your office, but he is rarely ever loud and very sound-conscious.
* Our bedroom is next to the living room.
* We print out and follow a weekly common area cleaning schedule to keep things clean & tidy. Each week you get one common area to clean, and every two weeks you get a week off. It’s not an outrageous cleaning schedule, but it’s how we have managed peaceful living situations with roommates for many years!
* I am an auditioning actor, and sometimes that means a self tape. I try my best to set these up in my room, and ask if I need any quiet. I will always offer a heads up, and aim to get them finished as quickly as possible.
* We put this in sublets/temporary because we are open to someone shorter term, but the bedroom is only partially furnished with items that can stay or go.
** Finding the right person is more important than having someone in exactly on January 15th to July 31st and we are open to shorter time frames if it's a good fit!

About This Lister

Hi! I’m Deb (she/her), 44 and I’m an actor, yoga teacher, and work with an assessment company.

Chris (he/him) 45 is in Quality Assurance, and spends lots of time quiet in his office (which would be next to yours).

**Chris and I are a child-free by choice couple, and have been for 11 years (yeah love❤️). Living with a couple can have its challenges, and definitely isn't for everyone. I think we are pretty nifty open communicators, but I am obviously biased. Let’s talk about expectations!

Both of us value open communication, and are a combination of “like to stay in and cook”, and “like to go out”.

If there’s an issue, the motto is: let’s chat about it!

Creating a home that is tidy and welcoming is what both of us enjoy, and we hope you do also!
