Join her in her 2 BR, 1 BA apartment in Washington Heights on August 1. Monthly rent: $800 (furniture available for purchase if needed)
About Kaelyn: “I’m a dancer, originally from outside Washington D.C., and moved here for college five years ago. Most of my time is occupied by dancing and waitressing to pay the bills, but when I have a free moment I love cooking, photography, playing piano and exploring the city. I know how to have a good time, but prefer to keep my home more of an escape from the craziness of the city. My ideal nights at home include cooking dinner and watching a good movie, or sometimes catching up on my roommate’s week over a pint of Ben and Jerry’s (Half-Baked is my fave!). I’m an old-movie buff and have an awesome DVD collection that I’m willing to share.”
About you: “My main requirement is that you be honest and low drama. I have no preference for a guy or a girl. It would be fantastic if we became good friends, but at the same time, if you just want your space, I’m cool with that too. I’m also looking for someone who likes cats; I’ve got one now named Antigone (don’t ask), and she’s adorable, I swear!”
About the space: “The apartment is a fifth-floor walk-up but totally worth the trek. It was renovated last summer, so it’s in great condition and it gets plenty of sunlight, which is a rarity in many Manhattan spaces. There are hardwood floors in both bedrooms, the living room and the hallway; a new laundry room was just added to the building and it is pretty awesome. It’s right by the 1, 2, 3 and A, C, E subway stations and just a short walk to the Hudson River. Riverside Park is nearby too, so there’s tons of pretty scenery and picnic opportunities, provided it stops raining soon. My roommate is leaving at the end of July, so I’ll need someone from August to May (when the lease is up). You’ll have the option to renew the lease then if you want!
