About the room

The property is right across from Thalia Hall in the heart of the Pilsen neighborhood. It is situated above a higher-end restaurant S.K.Y. and the corner includes (right outside the front door) 5 bars, and 3 restaurants. The immediate area has over two dozen bar and restaurant establishments and is 0.5 miles from the Pink Line 18th St stop, and also has the number 18 bus stop Racine right outside. I routinely use both to get to and from downtown and other neighborhoods in the city. There is a community grocery store 3-blocks away (Casa Del Pueblo) from the apartment that brandishes a solid variety of niche and national products at fair prices.

The actual apartment is a very large one-bedroom, one bathroom. Recently renovated space with granite counter tops and a good amount of storage. The space has a two-living-room layout with one private room with door and lock. Depending the needs and preferences of prospective room mates I am flexible negotiating between giving up the private door and lock room and partitioning the second living room as my own space. The space is already nominally furnished. Currently both living room spaces are furnished as well as the private bed room. Heating and cooling come through central air. Dishwasher and in-unit laundry are a nice plus! Entry to the building and apartment are through a keyless bluetooth system called Latch. Ceilings in the main room are high 15+ ft vaulted with lots of natural light. Gas range stove and oven. The building is pet friendly. There is lots of street parking in the surrounding blocks, however parking right outside the actual property is permit parking due to Thalia Hall.

Listing is due to a girlfriend moving to New York, so the place has an overall feminine edge of decor.

About the roomies

I’m 30 years old and finishing my Master’s in Computer Science degree from DePaul University’s downtown campus. I’m regularly between the apartment and downtown or visiting family in the northwest suburbs. Originally from the Barrington area, I have lots of friends that still live in and around the city so visitors come somewhat on a regular basis. My studies and social life keep me busy and not as much a homebody. Apart from being a graduate student, I am also a consultant for a River North based corporate marijuana firm. This work has me on regular business trips.

I am not a morning person, but I have no issues with morning people going through their routines. Visitors are allowed and more than welcome as long as mutual respect is upheld. Many friends of mine are in the local art, design, and music industries so additions of any favorite artworks to the spatial decor is welcomed. Overall laidback person so just ask any questions and you’ll be met with a fairly judgement free response.
