Fully Furnished Bedroom + Private Bathroom in Rowhouse in Brightwood Park DC!

Looking for a roommate to occupy our current guest bedroom in our English basement! The bedroom is fully furnished and your private bathroom is just down the hall. The English basement is carpeted and also features a large common space + our house’s... washer and dryer. The English basement has a staircase & door leading up to the first floor, and also has a private rear entrance to the back of the house. The bedroom comes with a full mattress, bed-frame, dresser, desk, desk chair and closet–you can move stuff around or into the common space as you like.

We’re looking for another woman in their 20s / 30s. Unfortunately we can’t accommodate any more pets here, & this is a no smoking household.

Utilities are not included in rent but are split equally (~$100 per person - incl. gas, water, electricity, and internet).


ABOUT US

We are two women in our late 20s (one of us is in a PhD program at UMD & the other works full-time remote from home) and three cats! We like to thrift, craft, read, and watch TV. We lived together in college & now are living together again in DC! We are pretty quiet roommates – occasionally we have small gatherings of friends, but don’t really party.


ABOUT THE HOUSE

This is a renovated three story rowhouse in the Brightwood Park area, very close to the MD/DC border. The entire first floor is communal, with a kitchen, dining area, living room, and half bath. We also have a super cute porch swing out front + a small lot in the backyard. We’ve been living here for a year and the neighbors are very nice and quiet. The two other bedrooms are on the second floor, and the cats are restricted to the first and second floor only.

Parking is very easy on the street – there is no permit required to park here and there are always open spaces.

It’s less than 20 minutes to walk to the Fort Totten metro (Green and Red line access), and a quick drive/bike ride up to downtown Takoma Park. Nearby (and walkable) there are cafes, restaurants, Walmart, Chick-fil-A, Aldi, public libraries, and farmers markets!

The move-in date can be flexible but sometime in August is ideal. Send an email if you have any questions or if you’d like to schedule a virtual tour of the house!
