Reader looking for a roommate:
$1150 / 150ft2 – Spacious room in newly renovated, airy Columbia Heights apartment
14th Street and Columbia Road NW
1-year lease
November 1st move-in, but flexible to find the right fit.
$1150 + electric, wifi, and cleaning service ~$125
Spacious sunlit room with three windows and a great view. The room can EASILY fit a king or queen size bed in addition to dressers.
Within walking and biking distance of:
> (0.4 miles or less) three grocery stores (Safeway, Giant, Harris Teeter), among others
> (0.2 miles or less) Columbia Heights metro (Green and Yellow lines), TONS of busses, and the AdMo-McPherson Circulator
> fast casual restaurants (Cava, Chipotle, &Pizza right around the corner) as well as top rated places like Thip Khao, Bad Saint, Federalist Pig, and MANY diverse restaurants (Cuban, Ethiopian, Vietnamese, Latin American, vegan, etc) within less than a 0.3 mile radius
EXTRA PERKS!
> locked bike room within the building (see picture)
> bike lane protected streets all along 14th and 15th –easily getting you to the center of downtown in minutes.
> washer/dryer in building
> central air condition and heating (rare in DC!)
> recently REMODELED –new appliances, fresh paint, new carpets and flooring
> lots of natural light and windows for fresh air, but high enough to not let-in noise from the street
Me: You’d be sharing the apartment (and a bathroom) with a late 20s professional who enjoys being active, but also spending some chill nights in either cooking or inviting a few friends over for dinner or drinks. Like to keep things clean and friendly.
You:
> professional with a full time job who keeps common areas clean, is considerate, and proactive
> must be willing to undergo credit check and provide previous landlord references
Please email back with:
> A little about yourself
> What you like to do on the weekends
> Work or school schedule
> How you like to keep your space vs the common space
> Favorite things –to watch, to cook, to hang, last place you traveled
> Anything else to know about you!
Looking to schedule showings within the upcoming week.
