$625 for 15 minutes to Manhattan

Roommate wanted: One of our roommates is making a move and opening up a spot in our 3 bed/1 bath apartment in a quiet neighborhood of Weehawken, NJ. Our apartment is on the second floor of a 3-family house and has a full kitchen and living room, coin-operated laundry in basement, and is 4 blocks to first bus stop in and out of Manhattan (10min bus to midtown/30min with traffic).

About us:
We’re a 35 year old gay man (runner, works in a non-profit, ENTP) and a 38 year old straight woman (bookish, works in tech, INTJ). We’re both unabashedly nerdy, like to cook, bake, enjoy a variety of television, and eat relatively healthy. Both work full-time on mostly 9-5ish schedules. We have two very friendly cats, both rescues. Our landlord lives on the 1st floor; retired Weehawken PD Sgt with 2 dogs.

What we’re looking for:
Looking for someone who is as much a potential new friend as they are a roommate. We live together so we greatly appreciate open, honest, and respectful communication. Ideally, we’ll all grocery shop, cook, and share when it comes to food and paper products, etc rather than everything separate and labeled, but that’s up for discussion. We’re not neat freaks but keeping the apartment clean is important, especially the common areas. Another cat is possible, dogs are not permitted per landlord.

The nitty-gritty:
The rent is $625/month plus utilities (Gas/Electric and Internet/cable) and grocery share (see above) - rarely more than $850 total/month. Security deposit is $900. The apartment is mostly furnished. 3rd bedroom is not. The bedroom is 13ft by 10ft with a lofty 9ft ceiling. The room currently fits a queen-sized bed, 2 full size dressers, 3 bookshelves, a sitting chair and has a full closet. We are happy to answer any questions regarding the space. Per landlord, there is no smoking in the apartment, but outside is fine so long as you clean up after yourself. Room is available October 1st and lease is month to month though we’re hoping for someone more long-term. Move in date is negotiable. Inquiries please reach out directly.

Thank you,
Jason and Rachael (Alana)
