bonnielynn01

Hello! We are a group house of four (4) females living in a beautiful, traditional DC row home situated in the cozy neighborhood of Petworth (NW, DC) looking for another fabulous female to join us for a year lease beginning July 1, 2024!

Here are the detz:

THE HOUSE: This is a 5 bed, 2.5 bath beautiful row house property with gorgeous wood floors, antique features, and a spacious, modern kitchen. The home has plenty of relaxing outdoor space with both front and back porches and two gardens—great outdoor space for grilling and entertaining! The house is equipped with A/C, in-unit laundry, and a high-speed google nest wifi system (perfect for working at home!). There is plenty of indoor storage and secure outdoor storage for bikes. The common spaces of the house are fully furnished, including a completely stocked kitchen (although additional pieces are welcome!).   

THE ROOM FOR RENT: The room for rent is a spacious half of the Master bedroom located on the 2nd floor of the house. We affectionately refer to this room as "Master Bedroom B." Before you're like, "uhh, what does that mean?", I will attempt to explain:) The Master bedroom in our house is made up of TWO full-size rooms, Master bedrooms: Bedroom A and Master bedroom B, which are connected yet separated by an actual, proper full-size door. Thus, while each room is its own full-size, PRIVATE room, the tenant for bedroom B must walk through the bedroom occupied by tenant A to access the room. To accommodate this arrangement, this room is priced VERY affordable for its size! The current tenant of bedroom A is a fabulous lady in her 20's working in the non-profit sector. Prospective tenants for Master Bedroom B will interview with tenant A to ensure it is a good fit.

THE NEIGHBORHOOD: The home is nestled in the lovely Petworth community, NW DC. The Petworth neighborhood is friendly and quiet, hosting a mix of young families as well as group houses like what this one will be! The home is located within a 5-minute walk to two beautiful DC parks—Sherman Circle and Grant Circle, NW. It is located within walking distance to 2 grocery stores (Safeway and Yes! Organic), the Petworth library and swimming pool, as well as super close to Upshur Street which has fantastic restaurants (Timber Pizza, Cinder BBQ, Taqueria Del Barrio) and other fun shops (Willow, Loyalty Books). Petworth is known as an upcoming "hip" DC neighborhood with several festivals and events throughout the year such as the Petworth Porch Fest (DC's largest music festival!).

PARKING & TRANSPORTATION: There is an off-street parking space in the alleyway behind the house which we have tended to use interchangeably as needed. For all others, there is plenty of free street parking (it is rare to not find a spot right in front of the house!), and our street itself is not zoned. There is easy access to the 62, 63, 70, and 79 bus lines (less than 2-minute walk) as well as the Georgia Ave / Petworth metro station (Green / Yellow lines) which is about a 12-minute walk.

THE HOUSE VIBE: The four of us are chill, low-key, no-drama ladies spanning the age ranges of early 20's to early 40's. Our group house has historically kept a culture of independence as well as anecdotal community. While each lady has had a busy life consisting of navigating her own schedule, food, lifestyle, etc., we do enjoy organic "how you doin''?" chats after work, an occasional movie night, and catching up on life while happening to cook at the same time in the kitchen. We want everyone to feel equally comfortable and welcome in their own home. While guests are certainly welcome, we ask that housemates respect the privacy of other housemates in doing so (I'm happy to chat further about how this works for us!). We prioritize cleanliness (especially dishes:)), kindness, and consideration and equally pitch in to make sure household duties are managed and that the home feels like "home" for everyone.

ADDITIONAL DETZ:

·      Utilities are between $100-$130 per tenant per month. We split all bills evenly and share certain daily supplies (i.e., toilet paper, paper towels, dish soap, etc.). 

·      We utilize a monthly cleaning service which does the WHOLE house (including bedrooms upon request) for $25 a month per person.

·      A security deposit of $675 (one month's rent) will be required, to be returned at the end of the lease as long as no damages have accrued. 

·      The lease will begin July 1st, 2024. This will be for one year (ending June 30, 2025).
