About the room

Full Disclosure Up Front: This is a house share arrangement whereby you (individually only, NO partners or families) would have a room in our house. One MUST be fully C19-compliant, be steadily-employed & financially reliable, and be absolutely drama-free and not plan on having any guests visit during the pandemic. I have up to 2 rooms available in our big University City home as of New Year’s Day. We are located just 1 block off of Baltimore Avenue & the #34 trolley which gets you downtown in 15-20 minutes while also being within one mile of Penn, Drexel, and the University of the Sciences. This is a very nice house that you’d be sharing with me, my lil’ dog Pablo, and 2 to 3 other tenants, all of whom are professionals ranging from their mid-20’s to late 50’s. It is a friendly household that welcomes others that wish to abide by the house codes of cleanliness and consideration towards all. The biggest room available on the house’s 3rd floor would cost $650/month while the other available room in our renovated basement costs $575/month. All room costs include utility fees as well (electric, gas, water, wi-fi, & heat); air-conditioning would be an additional $40/month in the warm months should you opt for it, although many are comfortable with the ceiling fans that come equipped with the rooms. We also have a nice fenced-in backyard that you can utilize for your reading or eating leisure should you wish. The University City neighborhood is lined with restaurants, parks, bars, cafes, shops, and even a brewery with a wide array of cuisines being represented nearby too. It’s a vibrant region that is home to many artists and musicians as well as professionals and students. There is ample on-street parking too should you have a car. Excessive partiers or those who would plan to have visitors on a regular basis probably wouldn’t be the best fit here. Please come have a look and see if we’d be a good fit for your plans, thanks so much for looking and considering!

About the roomies

I currently live here with just one other tenant who’s been here for over 5 years. He is a very friendly chef who is often not here at all. My 24-y.o. recent college graduate of a son will likely be moving back in here too with his 15-lb. hypoallergenic schnoodle (Schnauzer/Poodle), “Pablo”, who is very affectionate and doesn’t shed or bark much.
