Seeking a Great Roommate!
Big lovely room available in shared household on September 24th, possibly a bit earlier! I’m seeking someone who is a good communicator, willing to share in household chores, and likes a balance of doing our own thing and being friendly when we’re both around.
The place:
The apartment is a cozy, sweet 2-bedroom corner unit on the second floor (one flight of stairs to reach) in Duboce Triangle - one block from beautiful Duboce park. The available bedroom is large - 12 x 15, and has a bay window, some built-in shelving, and a good sized closet, located outside the room in the hallway. Bedroom is currently furnished with a bed, small desk and chair, lamp and nightstand. Open to emptying some or all of it, if you have your own furnishings. The apartment has a sunny, stocked kitchen and a cozy furnished living room. Kitchen has a gas stove, fridge, microwave, toaster, but alas, no dishwasher. The shared bathroom has a tub for soaking. Laundry is located downstairs in the building and takes credit cards.
About the Area:
Every time I tell someone I live in Duboce Triangle, they light up and say “I LOVE Duboce Triangle!!” It’s easy to love it here - quaint, peaceful tree-lined streets all around, and a beautiful nearby park to catch the abundant sunshine. The N Judah and the Church st MUNI station are short blocks away, & you can walk to the 16th st BART in 15 minutes. The Castro, the Mission, and the Lower Haight are all right here, and there are tons of cafes, restaurants, and bars nearby. If you have a car, you can get a parking permit for the area, and street parking is relatively easy.
Some things to consider:
Apartment currently has no pets, but I’m open to a well-behaved, mostly quiet dog. (Sorry, no cats, I’m allergic). No smoking of any kind in the house (this is not a 420 friendly household per my allergies/sensitivities). The house is scent-free. Please no perfume, incense, or scented candles. The room is only big enough for one person (sorry, no couples). There’s no TV in the living room.
About the Rent and Move In costs:
$1715/month includes utilities and internet; a bit more in winter depending on heat usage. Move in costs will be the first month’s rent, plus a deposit equal to one month’s rent, for a total of $3,430.
Your lease agreement will be month to month, one year minimum stay preferred.
About me:
I’m a 50-something woman, responsible, friendly, a good communicator, and easy to get along with. I lead a pretty busy life, but often like to just relax at home too. Working full time; two days a week from home.
About my potential roommate:
-Easygoing, responsible, fun, fairly chill/quiet lifestyle
-Non-smoking, non-fragrance or incense using
-Sober or light drinkers okay but no heavy drinkers, drug use/partiers
-Prefers a clean/tidy household and able to do house chores and pay rent without being reminded
-Preferably someone with minimal stuff (apartment is totally furnished and there’s not much in the way of storage space outside of the room/closet). There is space in the apartment for a bicycle, if you have one.
If you’re interested and think you might be a match, please get in touch and tell me about yourself! Thanks - I look forward to hearing from you!!
