About the room
Smallish bedroom in a 2-bedroom, 1 bathroom apartment. 10 minutes downhill walk to Main Street and SEPTA regional rail. (A few different bus lines also in walking distance.) Access to a shared driveway (!) for those who drive. Nice view of the neighborhood from the front window, and a cool porch in the back. The kitchen includes a dishwasher and a gas stove. Also includes access to a basement with free washer/dryer and some storage (also shared). Central air/heating. Does not include utilities - half of cable/internet, electricity, and gas. (This would currently add up to about $120 per month but I am looking to lower the cable/internet bill shortly.)
You would be living with me (mid/late 20s, female, public servant, cool nerd) and my cat (1.5ish years old, cat, precious ball of joy). No other housemates to deal with!
You would be signing onto a lease which ends July 31. You would need to pass the landlord’s background/income requirements and pay an application fee. I am also asking for the last month’s rent in advance, which will function as a deposit (i.e. last month is free if you don’t break anything).
There is a set of stairs leading up to the building from the street and another leading up to the apartment, so it may not be a good fit if that’s a barrier for you.
The bedroom is unfurnished but I have furniture to lend if necessary.
Preference for women and/or LGBTQIA+ people.
There is space for EXACTLY ONE PERSON in the room, so if you’re looking to bring someone with you, I’m sorry but please look elsewhere.
The landlord told me he may consider a person with 1 other cat if they were a strong applicant otherwise, but no dogs.
No cigarette smoking and (preferably) no other smoking, and no hard drugs please.
