    Room details

    A sunny, top-floor room with big windows and a walk-in closet for rent. The living room with high ceiling and exposed beams, the kitchen that boasts the view of the sun setting behind the West Rock, and a full bathroom will be shared with only one roommate. The apartment is located near Prospect Street, in Sheldon Terrace to be exact, which is only a 2 and 3/4 block-long backroad ending with a cul-de-suck; it's super-quiet and peaceful here. A couple of blocks away from Yale shuttle bus stops and in a walking distance to the main campus/downtown/East Rock, this is a hidden gem only slightly off the bustling centers of New Haven. There are only five people living in this house a retired couple of former Yale employees, a mother and her teenage daughter, and your future roommate. The roommate is an international, mature, and friendly woman with an academic background, for whom the most important quality of roommate is being quiet, considerate, social, communicative, mature, responsible and clean. No pets, no smoking, no parties, no overnight guests. Utilities are not included in the rent. You can bring in your own A/C unit and/or space heater (though the apt is centrally heated with gas) with $50 extra for each per month. One-year lease and immediate move-in. Please send your renter's profile along with a brief self-introduction. We'll start from there! Minimum 1 year, move-in ready, approximately $50 background check fee, no pets, no smoking, no parties, credit score 700+
