HOUSEMATE WANTED! I recently bought a home in Burlington, NJ and I'm looking for someone to rent half of the first floor. It's a 3-bed, 2.5-bath house. The first floor is set up so that half of it can act like an in-law suite. It has a private back entrance, coat closet, bathroom (sink, toilet, large shower, linen closet), an 11'x11' eat-in kitchenette (sink, fridge, countertop electric burners, microwave, but NO oven), an 11'x11' bedroom with closet, and a larger 13'x11' room with no closet that could be used as a bedroom, living room, office, whatever. There are two doors (one in the kitchenette and one in the larger room) that can close the space off from the rest of the house, so it acts like a separate apartment. There is laundry in the basement that we would share. Looking for an October move-in. The house is on a quiet street 1.5 miles from downtown Burlington, which is full of shops and restaurants, and a stop for the NJ Transit River Line (which runs between Trenton and Camden). It's right off Rt 130, and about 8 minutes by car to the NJ Turnpike, Rt 295, and the Burlington-Bristol Bridge. Half an hour to Philly, 20 minutes to the Trenton Transit Center, half an hour to Princeton, an hour to the shore. The house is fully furnished except for the rooms for rent, and we would have our separate spaces. There is a nice-sized fenced-in backyard with deck/patio, grill, and fire pit. The driveway can fit two cars, but there is also ample street parking. Monthly rent is $1500/month for a single person, or $1600/month for a couple, inclusive of all utilities and storm-ready 1GB Wi-Fi. $500 security deposit to move in, refundable at move-out if there's no damage. Looking for someone responsible/clean/considerate with reliable income. No smoking or vaping in the house. Preferably no pets. I'm looking for someone to sign a 12-month roommate agreement. I'll want to run a background check on any prospective housemate, which I will pay for. I'm looking for a housemate to live in my in-law suite. Would want someone to sign a 12-month roommate agreement. No smoking, preferably no pets. All utilities included in the rent. $500 security deposit and background check (which I will pay for) required. No smoking or vaping in the house.

Single white 38-year-old man. I work in technical theater. I've been in this house for 5 months now, my first time owning a home. Some interests are gardening, cooking/baking, camping, and woodworking/DIY. I tend to be quiet and keep to myself.
