House Details:

+  Roomy kitchen with a gas stove, many cupboards, dishwasher....the whole she-bang.
+  Laundry room & light-filled breakfast nook with table & chairs.
+  Sound travels upward & downward in the house, so noises, even medium-loud speaking can be heard through the floor/ceiling.
+  We have a guard-dog. She's trained & very sweet to wanted guests. +  Everything you need is less than five blocks away. The post-office, library, grocery store, shops, restaurants, coffee shops & more.
+  Street noise is minimal.

Our Place: The first floor living room, bathroom, bedroom, & private front door entrance.
We are artists with (non-art-related) day jobs. We spend a lot of time at home, watching movies, making art, cooking & working in the garden. We tend to stay up late & get up early, so the first floor is a fairly active place. We often have several art or film projects going on, but none will affect common areas of the house, UNLESS you would like to collaborate. It's important to us that our house-mate is accepting of LGBT & gender-queer people.  We often engage in lively discussion about politics, breaking social norms, race/gender/sexuality, science, religion & even a few radical conspiracy theories...but always with respect & a willingness to hear-out others.  We would enjoy another canine in the house, but cannot accept a feline.

If you are interested in sharing our home, please respond via e-mail, letting us know a little bit about you, what you'd prefer in a housing arrangement, & anything else you'd like to add.
