Master Suite in SE Austin House

Ad ref# 102124862

Southeast Austin Home (near the Tesla Gigafactory) - Master Suite - (Unfurnished) - $875/month + 1/2 of the bills. $700 deposit. Available November 1st.
---------------------------------------------------------
Seeking: A single roommate to take over the lease of the master suite of a 1800 sqft, 1-story home. No children or pets (well...contained animals would be okay with me to sneak in (no birds - I love them, but not as companions)) as there is a 2-pet limit on the policy that is maxed with my cats. Plants are fantastic, but I will warn that anything leafy should be kept out of reach of one of the cats - he will devour them if they’re deemed yummy.

I love this house and yard, and if you’re like me, you will too! The lease lasts until March 31st with an option to resign at the beginning of the year.

---------------------------------------------------------

Description:

- Awesome kitchen with ample cabinet/fridge storage and room on the counters to bake/cook comfortably. The only downside is there isn’t a dishwasher, but as long as we keep on top of washing up our dishes within a day or two, it’s not a big deal.

- Converted garage (affectionately called "the dungeon"). It's an open, decorated space that is perfect for crafting, stretching/aerobics, games, bookshelves, puzzles, etc. You will have room for a workspace and a couple book/movie/game shelves. This is the room with a direct lan connection. Please be aware that this is NOT a storage room for items you don’t want in your suite or a TV set-up.

- The livingroom is fully furnished. This includes a large TV, which you’re welcome to hook up a streaming box or console.

Your digs: 12.5’x12.5’ room with 2 windows overlooking trees that shroud the houses behind the small canal that drains towards the river. Two sinks in a large bathroom (also has a window!) with a separate shower and garden tub. Oh! There's also a toilet! And a door! This is a special door, in that it leads to a rather LARGE walk-in closet, which is more than ample for large amounts of clothing and other storage needs.

The River: Yes, the Colorado River is a short walk away. I know a gorgeous spot I can take you to that is great to hang around before lunchtime (it is often popular with families after lunch and into the evening).

---------------------------------------------------------

Me: I’m a mid-30s female (fully-vaccinated) with 2 elderly, friendly, communicative, indoor cats. I like to cook/bake, read, play games and do puzzles, take photos, and go camping/hiking/exploring. I’m laid-back, non-religious but follow the universal “don’t be a  rules, friendly, and am quiet. I tend to the yard and keep the house clean (oh, cat fur…). I have a son in his mid-teens who lives in another city and occasionally stays over (1-2x a month). My boyfriend tends to come over on Saturdays, but otherwise, my guests are few and far between since last year. At some point I might want to have an occasional game night again, but not until I feel more comfortable with the current Covid situation.

---------------------------------------------------------

You: Are in your mid-20s-40s, fully-vaccinated, past the party-stage, and don’t tend to have a lot of guests - when you do, you give a heads up as a courtesy. You are a cat person (or at least like and respect them), clean and tidy, recycle, communicative, drama-free, not passive-aggressive, responsible, have taken the Covid situation seriously and still consider the unknowns with variants and vaccination efficacy, respect quiet time, and are kind.

---------------------------------------------------------

We don’t necessarily have to have the same interests, but it would be wonderful if we do have plenty in common or topics to discuss. I want to be comfortable talking or catching up when we're both around, and maybe even collaborate on shared interests. While I don't expect to be BFFs, I want to have open lines of communication and be kind to each other.

All I ask is that, at a minimum:
- you’re early/on-time with payments

- we respect and communicate with each other

- you (and your guests) make sure the kitties:
* are kept prisoners in this house
* are not fed unapproved human food

- you don’t smoke tobacco or copious amounts of herb in the house

- we keep the blinds open in the livingroom and kitchen (I like sunlight)

- you help with keeping the kitchen clean and tidy - as someone who loves to cook/bake, I can’t stress this enough.

- It would be appreciated if you helped out with consumables (aside from air and water filters - those are included with the bills) such as paper towels and garbage bags.

---------------------------------------------------------

Please send a reply telling me a bit about yourself (or a lot about yourself!) and include any questions you may have. Including a social media account would be a nice bonus! I mainly use Instagram and can share that with you, as well. We can set up a zoom meeting to chat and then set up an official meeting/tour afterwards.

If we feel we’re a good fit for each other, I’ll send your contact info to the leasing agency so you can fill out the application, and we can go from there!

---------------------------------------------------------

TL; DR - I’m seeking someone to share a home with when my roommate moves out, not merely someone to split bills. If you didn’t read through this thoroughly, then we’re obviously not a good fit and you shouldn’t apply.
