mattlistener.livejournal.comMy partner Brandi and I live in a wonderful condo near Davis and Ball Squares in Somerville. Brandi has a nice crafty setup in the basement, which means we're able to rent our extra bedroom -- so we're looking for a housemate! Rent would be $675 plus share of utilities, available 9/1 (move-in date flexible).
Brandi and I are a geeky, creative, and sane household. I'm a Unix sysadmin and massage therapist by trades, and love board games and science fiction. Brandi's going into Public Policy and loves quilting and gardening. We watch almost no TV. We do spend a bunch of time at home, so a friendly, mutually supportive housemate relationship is very important to us. We are friendly to all lifestyles.
The house is on Prichard Ave, which is northeast of Davis, near Ball Square and the bike path. We're a 3 minute walk to Sound Bites, 10 to the T in Davis, 15 to Star Market. The neighborhood is quiet, friendly, and has lots of trees.
Our kitchen is a complete remodel, done when we moved in a year ago, with ample cabinet and counter space, all new appliances, and an eat-in kitchen nook. We also updated the electrical system and added more outlets to every room. There's good-sized living and dining rooms, front and back porches, W/D and dishwasher. The available bedroom is 11'x12' with a good closet and an ethernet jack.
We have a sweet, goofy cat. One more cat would be okay if they can get along, but no other furry pets. No smoking or drug use on the premises.
