Roommate wanted for 2bed/2bath in Garden District - $800/month
About the Apartment (2512 Magazine Street): 2 bed/2 bath that occupies part of the ground floor of a gorgeous old Victorian. There are eight apartments within the house. The property and neighborhood was not damaged or flooded by Katrina and was recently inspected (as of 5/28/2007).
-Kitchen: spacious, granite counter tops, new stainless steal appliances.
-Bedroom: 12′ x 10′ carpeted, HUGE walk-in closet, private bathroom (shower and tub), two windows that face Magazine St, unfurnished.
-Living/dining area: hardwood floors, 14′ ceilings, floor-to-ceiling windows, French doors leading to cute Juliet porch, will be partially furnished.
-Other: coat closet, washer/dryer, new AC unit, on-street parking.
About the neighborhood: The house sits right on Magazine Street and is part of the Garden District. The property is gated (you have to punch in a code) and there is a 24-hour security patrol (3 officers per 8-hour shift). Sitting outside one evening I saw 2 of the patrol cars go by in 20 minutes. It is 4 blocks away from coffee shops (incl. Starbucks), shops, restaurants, a small grocery (Breaux Mart) and a new Walgreen’s. The neighbors are nice, mostly young professionals. The neighborhood is quiet with lots of on street parking at all times of the day. It’s five blocks from St. Chares St. and a 10-minute drive to Tulane Med.
I will be a first year Tulane Med student (moving from Boston), so I am looking for another med or grad student (preferably female) who wants a nice, clean and fun apartment. No smoking, no pets please. I am a long distance runner, I enjoy cooking (I am not a vegetarian) and going out with friends. The lease is one year starting on July 1, but rent can be prorated for one month.
