Property Details

The Space & Apartment

Looking for someone to take over my spot on a joint lease or sublease for a cozy 10’ x 8’ private bedroom at 295 Himrod St in prime Bushwick. The room gets excellent natural light, has solid closet storage space, and features its own attached, private en-suite bathroom configuration with a personal toilet and shower.

The apartment is incredibly spacious and fully updated with:
• Central A/C & Heating throughout the entire unit
• In-unit Dishwasher for easy cleanup
• Laundry in the building (no winter laundromat trips!)
• Huge modern open-concept living area and lounge space
• Fully updated kitchen with premium countertops and stainless steel appliances
• Two additional full-sized common bathrooms (meaning absolutely zero morning bottleneck in the house!)
• Secure keyless/fob entry system at the front door

Location & Commute

Located in a vibrant, highly walkable pocket of Bushwick, you are steps away from incredible local restaurants, coffee shops, bars, and grocery stores.

• 🚇 DeKalb Ave (L Train): Just a 5-minute walk for a fast, direct commute into Manhattan!
• 🚇 Knickerbocker Ave (M Train): A convenient 10-minute walk for easy access across Brooklyn and Queens.

The Roommates & Household Vibe

You will be sharing the apartment with two amazing young working professionals in their early-20s who work in creative and professional fields. They maintain a very inclusive, queer-friendly, and calm household vibe. It's a relaxed, friendly space, and they are looking for another young queer-friendly professional in a similar stage of life to keep the great energy going. There is also a very friendly cat!
