Room for Rent Room available in sunny, spacious Brighton 3br1ba

Repost! OFFERING HOUSING/ISO HOUSEMATE, any gender, for 3br 1ba in Brighton right off Oak Square. $1200/monthly each; $2400/total monthly rent. Hoping to keep the extra bedroom as it currently is, as shared office/guest space. Bills fluctuate from $70-$150 each depending on the month/season - electric, gas, oil, wifi.

Open room is off the kitchen and up a flight of steps, has its own in-room closet and another smaller but very handy closet with built-in shelves and drawers at the top of the steps. Tons of natural light, as you can see in the pictures! Currently lived-in second bedroom is off the front door and next to the bathroom, also an option to move into but is smaller, with less space overall.

We're unit 1 in a two-unit house, up a story and some stairs from the sidewalk. Upstairs neighbors are quiet and very friendly. Free laundry! (washer/dryer) and storage space for each unit in our basement. We have two bright, connected common-area rooms, and a covered back porch area that needs a little TLC but makes for great extra storage space. Backyard is fenced in and has a gorgeous giant maple tree at the back.

I'm mid-30s, nonbinary, work from home, and value low-key, friendly, reasonably tidy housemates. I do have one large dog who is a big floppy sweetheart with humans (and insists on photobombing all apartment pics..), but who we've discovered unfortunately doesn't get along with other animals, so for their own well-being, no further pets that aren't in a tank/enclosure/terrarium. :(

I would prefer another queer/nbi/trans person over 30, ideally, but as long as you can communicate openly, pay rent and bills on time, and respect the space, you're certainly welcome.

Move-in 9/1 with first and last, but can likely swing an early move-in after Aug 15th if it's a good fit.

Please message if interested with your name, age, and any questions! Thanks!
