More about us
We are friendly, clean, prefer a quiet environment, and enjoy spending time together over roommate dinners occasionally.
We are hoping to find someone with a similar lifestyle/schedules who will be going into their offices/labs on weekdays.
We prefer to keep the house fairly quiet (particularly between 10:30 pm and 5:30 am, no regular guests). Occasional visits from friends/family are welcome, but no male overnight guests (unless family). No partying, and as per lease agreement, no smoking, drug-use, pets in the house.
We have openings for one of the 4 bedrooms in the apartment. Additional amenities include washer/dryer in the basement, dishwasher in the kitchen, a large balcony connected to the living room, bike storage in the basement, and optional parking space for $150/month.
