Taaffe Place

Brooklyn, NY 11205

The apartment is in a 5th-floor elevator building about 3 minutes from the Classon G and around 12–14 minutes to the Clinton-Washington C. The space has high ceilings, hardwood floors, laundry in the building, furnished common areas, and a recently updated kitchen. The kitchen is fully stocked with cookware, appliances, and basics, so it’s ideal for someone not moving with a huge amount of stuff. Plenty of cafés, grocery stores, bars, and restaurants nearby.

The room itself is roughly 9 x 10 and currently has a full-size bed and wardrobe, though that can be flexible. Rent is $950/month including utilities. Building does not allow pets and the room is for one person only.

The apartment is generally quiet, clean, and low-key. Everyone is friendly but independent, so it’s best for someone looking for a calm home environment rather than a social or party apartment.

The main leaseholder has been in the apartment for over 10 years, and the current roommates have all lived together for multiple years. The apartment works well because everyone is respectful of shared spaces and mindful of each other’s schedules, especially since there is one bathroom. More than anything, the dynamic here works because personalities and routines fit together naturally.

We’re all easygoing, but everyone largely has their own separate lives and routines. People value peace, privacy, and a calm atmosphere at home. The setup tends to work best for quiet professionals with fairly regular schedules who spend a good amount of time out of the apartment, rather than primarily working from home.

Looking for someone responsible, considerate, and easy to live with — ideally someone who naturally keeps shared spaces tidy, cleans up after themselves, doesn’t leave dishes sitting in the sink, and is mindful about keeping common areas comfortable for everyone.
