Renting in a Lovely Neighborhood
LOOKING FOR ONE HOUSEMATE!
A room is available as of July 2025! Sharing bathroom.
No: pets, kids, partners/couples, young students Yes: young professionals, grad students
My current roommates and I have lived here in East Kensington for 2... years and have adored this house and area. They are both moving out sadly, but I'm going to stick around! This area is amazing, so walkable, very neighborly, lots to do around the area, super close to 95/Temple/MFL & bus. Street parking ain't the worst, and my cars never been broken into.
The first photos give you the general idea but the others show the house a bit more lived-in. The room shown is what is available. No closet (black clothes hanger/shelf available if wanted; access to roof via window). Sharing a floor and bathroom with another roomie (she’s great!)
Appliances/furniture in both rooms/bathroom will be removed (aka it comes unfurnished). There is also a full size basement (not finished) used for gym equipment and lots of storage. A cute lil backyard - connected to our landlord's, who live right next door and are amazing and have been the BEST!
Rent: $830 PECO: - $100-150 each (season depending) Gas: - $30 each (at most, usually less) Wifi: - $25 each (usually)
Wanted: someone chill, clean and tidy. Especially with the way they share space with others. Keep common areas clean. We love a party once in a while but don't go too crazy. Partake in helping with recycling/trash bins, dishes or deep cleaning once in a while. I am a F 28, don't mind if you're a M, just don't be weird.
Not wanted: someone not chill and messy (gross!)
Bonus: if you're creative 🙂 the 3 of us were all musicians gigging/teaching in various ways around the city. Not necessary but cool if you are. Absolutely no big house shows. If you need house show spots, I know plenty!
I am: Sarah 🙂 (F, 28; she/her) Graduated with my masters from Temple. I'm a music therapist working 8-9 hours a day, sometimes longer. My evenings can often be filled with rehearsals/gigs/shows but I also love to hang in my free time. I would love this house to continue to be LGBTQ+ friendly, smoke-free (or at least keep it outside), drug-free (unless prescribed), pet-free 🙁 (I'm very allergic to cats).
