About the room
Room for Rent in Ivy Ridge, New Castle, DE – Clean & Sober, Peaceful Home for a Professional Looking for a comfortable, peaceful place to call home after work? We have an unfurnished room available in our clean, quiet, and well-maintained house in Ivy Ridge, New Castle, DE. Ivy Ridge is a beautiful, safe development that offers a serene environment to come home to. Our location is super convenient – just minutes from Wilmington Airport and a 30–45-minute drive to Philadelphia, perfect for commuters or frequent travelers. It’s an ideal setup for a mature professional who values a relaxed, drama-free living space. Room & Home Features • Private Bedroom (Unfurnished) with Shared Bathroom: You’ll have your own comfortable bedroom and will share a bathroom. The home is kept clean and tidy at all times. • Full House Access: Enjoy full use of the kitchen, dining room, and living room; large backyard w/ grill – great for cooking meals or unwinding in front of the TV. • Laundry On-Site: No need to haul clothes to a laundromat – we have a washer and dryer in the house for your convenience. • Parking: We have a shared driveway for off-street parking, so your car will have a spot. • Peaceful Environment: This is a quiet, respectful household. We take pride in keeping the home peaceful and well-maintained, so you can relax after a long day. Rent & Utilities • Rent: $850 per month for the room (unfurnished). • Security Deposit: $850 (refundable) – one month’s rent, required at move-in. ($1700.00) • Utilities: The owner covers the first $100 of utilities each month! The remaining utility costs are split evenly between owner & roommates. This includes electric/gas (Delmarva Power), water (Artesian), cable/WiFi, and trash (Evergreen). (On average, utilities are very reasonable when split.) No surprise fees – just the rent and shared utilities as described above. We want to keep things fair and straightforward. House Rules & Ideal Roommate We’re a pretty laid-back and friendly household, but we do have some ground rules and preferences to keep our home enjoyable for everyone: • Mature, Employed Professional: Ideal for a fully employed adult with a stable job. (Proof of income will be required.) We’re looking for someone responsible who treats this like their home, not a crash pad. • Clean & Respectful: You clean up after yourself and respect common areas. We all pitch in to keep the house neat, so it stays a pleasant place to live. • Non-Smoker / Non-Vaper: No smoking or vaping inside or outside the property, and absolutely no illegal drugs. (We maintain a healthy, safe environment.) • No Pets: Sorry, no pets are allowed. Owner has a hypoallergenic service dog. This helps us keep the home quiet, allergy-free, and clean. • Background Check: A criminal background check and eviction history will be required. (Applicant pays the screening/application fee.) This is to ensure a safe home for everyone. • Security Deposit: One-month rent security deposit ($850) is required to move in. This is refundable when you move out, provided the room/house is left in good condition and rent/utilities are paid up. • Direct Renter Only: You must be the person renting the room. No third-party inquiries or renting on behalf of someone else. We’ll only consider the actual future roommate (no exceptions). Interested? Get in Touch! If this sounds like the right fit for you, we’d love to hear from you! Please send a message telling us a bit about yourself – include your age and field of work in your reply. This helps us get to know you and ensures you meet the basic requirements. We’re friendly and easy to talk to, and we want to make sure this will be a great match for everyone in the house. Serious inquiries only, please. We look forward to meeting our new housemate and creating a comfortable home together. Feel free to reach out with any questions or to schedule a time to see the room.

About the roomies
I’m a professional living in a quiet, well-maintained home with my friendly Whoodle 20 lbs (a hypoallergenic service dog). I work from home. We value a peaceful and respectful atmosphere, and I take pride in keeping the home clean, cozy, and welcoming. I’m easygoing, respectful, clean, sober and here to make sure your stay is comfortable and hassle-free. This is a relaxed household, and I’m looking for someone with a similar vibe to share the space.
