My awesome roommates, and the current homeowners, are packing up their stuff and making the crazy move to Toronto for work in August. So I'm looking to fill 1 (if you're a couple) or 2 bedrooms in the upper of a huge house in Bayview. It's a house filled with good people, I've been here for 3 years and I'm the shortest tendered roommate. I'm in my early 30's and finishing up professional school this coming year. I work 60-75 hr weeks and like to have a beer on our patio a few times a week to relax in the few moments I'm home and not sleeping.
I'm looking for young professionals (mid-20's to early 30's) of either gender (I currently live with one fella and one lady, and personally believe a mixed house is best). So if you're college educated, and are able to write a thoughtful and coherent email, shoot me your info.
Here's the write-up my roommate and house owner wants to post:
One huge third-floor master bedroom with walk-in closet plus one beautiful, sun-filled second-floor bedroom in a 3BR, two bath upper available August 1.
* Existing roommate is easygoing student finishing 4th year of a professional degree
* Double-size fenced yard with garden, patio, and grill
* Free in-unit laundry
* One spot in a private (no alley) garage included
* Short, quiet street 4 blocks to Humboldt Park, 6 blocks to I-94, 200 yards from bus stop
* 1900 square feet is not a typo; it's probably the biggest Bay View apartment
* Extra storage + workshop space in basement
* Well-behaved pets definitely possible; terms negotiable
*** No smoking inside, ever
*** Utilities (gas, electric, water) NOT included
*** Current employment/adequate income and excellent references required
The building owners live in the unit now, but are moving abroad in July for a multi-year work assignment and they don't want to sell. The home is very well maintained with many features you wouldn't expect in a rental, like a new high-end fridge, custom cabinetry, two separate decks, electronic keyless entry, gas Weber grill, and lots more!
This opportunity is perfect for a couple who want to have a guest room or for friends who want to get more space and nicer amenties than they could find.
