Looking for one cool cat (m or f person, not literally a cat) with whom to share a beautiful, comfy, quiet, & clean Davis Square apartment.
******* Who We Are *******
Matt has been at this Hall Ave. apartment for more than three years now. He’s a 26 (almost 27!) year-old man who works for a financial services company in downtown Boston. Outside of the office, he’s philosophical and enjoys intellectual challenges, but also physical things like judo and biking to work. Ideally, he’d like change jobs in the near term to work for a think tank, NGO, non-profit, or consulting company doing modeling and analysis of social and environmental problems. He’s vegan, but definitely doesn't require you to be (previous roommates were omnivorous). On the other hand, if you are vegan/vegetarian and looking for sympathetic people, this is the place for you.
David and Lany are new to the apartment this spring. David is a mid-30’s software guy about to be let loose in a grad school program at Harvard (religious history). Lany is a mid-20’s human resources professional working at MIT. We get along smashingly, thanks for asking.
We are clean and responsible, but know how to relax and have fun. If you are a professional or academic all-in-all interesting individual looking for a stimulating atmosphere, this may be your lucky day. We are politically progressive, liberal, open-minded, and friendly to your personal lifestyle choices.
We enjoy having people over for dinner, inviting guests for the occasional weekend party, bbq'ing in the summer, and going out around Somerville and Cambridge. Cooking fabulous dinners with deep discussion (made less memorable by wine) has been a tradition with past roommates.
*******Who YOU are *******
Active man or woman, in your 20's or early 30's. Responsible and secure enough financially to pay bills and rent on time. A grad student or busy employed person with diverse interests would be great. We don't smoke, but you can outside and infrequent recreational activities would be permitted in a closed room. We are not alcoholics or anything else-oholic. Neither are you. Have you had a maid your whole life and don't know how what a sponge is? Keep looking. Do you clean bathrooms, dishes, and yourself? We can talk! We’re not clean-freaks by any standards, but we have a healthy respect for the common living space and first-hand experience with the tragedy of the commons.
Are you an artist or musician? Are you creative or crafty and non-materialistic? Those would score extra points. Do you like nature, travel, and exercise? Then you’re a good influence. Do you want to make your house a home (even if just for one year)? Excellent. If you have lots of furnishings, feel free to bring them. There’s lots of room! Once you move in, we’ll all have an equal claim to this living space.
******* The Apartment *******
There are 2 living rooms, 1 dining room, a large kitchen, 4 bedrooms, and one bathroom. It spans the second and third floors, but also has ample storage space in the basement and attics. The common rooms are downstairs and the bedrooms upstairs. The available bedroom is approximately 13’ x 14’ with ample closet space. It has a view of the backyard and has two windows.
There is a covered front porch and an open back porch surrounded by a grassy backyard. We have cable TV/internet with ethernet and wireless in every room and speakers throughout the house and fenced backyard. The house is great for dinner parties. You’ll have free washer/dryer on the 2nd floor and clothes lines in the backyard. Utilities are approximately $1200/year for gas/electric/cable.
The first floor neighbors are two professionals from Argentina with a cute toddler named Santiago. You couldn't ask for more generous and friendly neighbors! They don’t smoke, make noise, or complain and they’re always happy to help you out.
******* The Area *******
If you don't know the Davis Sq. area you should check it out. It’s a happening place right on the Red Line over the Cambridge border. The apartment is a three-block, five minute walk from the T-stop on a quiet residential tree-lined street. I can be at MIT in 15 minutes, downtown in 20. If you drive, you'll find easy access to routes 95 and 93.
In Davis Sq., you’ll find a number of good local cafes including Someday and Diesel, the famous Somerville Theatre (live music and indie films), restaurants, bars, smallish local food markets, bookstores, and a nice plaza. Although the area is very lively with Tufts University up the road, it is not as crowded as Harvard Sq. and not as impersonal as Central. You could take out insurance, get a haircut, go out to dinner, see a movie, catch a drink, and hear a live blues band all within a five-minute walk.
Leading out of Davis is the Minuteman Bike Path leading 16 miles northwest out of the city along a reclaimed rail line. The trail leads through several towns, wooded areas and past a nice lake. It's very popular during the summer. Make sure you get a bike! You're only 2 minutes from the bike path (via bicycle of course).
Overall? This is a fun and safe area.
******* The situation *******
As mentioned, we need someone by 6/1. This is firm. Feel free to write and tell us who you are, what you are into, and so on if you wish! We are really excited about making this *home* as comfortable as possible. Come and be a part of it!
