Location:

If you’re interested, reply to this post and I can share more details, photos, or set up a tour via DM. I used building photos/screen shots from the buildings video about the unit for now. There’s also a virtual tour of this unit available I can share with you too!

🏡 The rooms are on the first floor, unfurnished, and share a large bathroom (with a tub!). The rent for each room is $825 + $150 utilities, and you would be signing a one-year lease. Wifi and rental insurance are ~$20/month. 

🪴The house has an in-unit washer and dryer, large kitchen/dining/living area, hardwood floors, and central AC/heat. We also have a large backyard that is great for gardening and hanging out, a covered front porch AND back deck (with outlets!), storage space in the garage, a driveway, and free street parking. 

🚲 We’re a 20 min walk to the Hyattsville Crossing metro (green/yellow line), and a 9 min walk to the Riverdale Town Center MARC station, which is also where the bike path is. The P1X, P30, and P35 bus lines are right outside our house, which can get you to the metro, directly into D.C., or further out to the University of Maryland in 16 min. 

🥝 We are close to grocery stores/shopping, including the farmer’s market and shops in Riverdale Town Center, Whole Foods, Yes Organic, and the Mall at Prince George’s. There are also plenty of restaurants and coffee shops to choose from in our area. 

🧚 Our ideal roommate would be kind, tidy, responsible, queer and trans friendly, and a clear and responsive communicator. We are 25 and 26 and work full-time outside of the house – I’m a relationship therapist in grad school and Julia is also in grad school for art. We love our house and value a good balance of being social/hosting and keeping things calm, cleaning up after ourselves, and respecting each other’s needs and schedules. We like to craft, cook, and be outside! We also have a cat (Tiki) so we’re looking for someone without pets of their own. 

If you’re interested in living with us, please send me a message for more info and pics!
