JP Coop House Seeking New Roommate!
1 room available January 1st, 2008
Rent for this room is $420 per month, plus each person contributes $100-$120 per month for food and utilities.
The house:This amazing 9-bedroom-plus house is located next to the Pond in JP, a few minutes walk to the Stony Brook T stop, right off of Centre Street. We have a yard with a garden, large trees, and a hammock. In the basement you can: do your laundry, work on your bike, build cool things, and store your bikes and your stuff. We also have porches, plenty of bathrooms, two large commonspaces, a sunroom, lots of books, fireplaces that work, and lots of windows. Olive, Pasha, Ballou (cat-friends), and Shasta (dog friend) live here too.
The roommates:We are about a dozen people, all in our 20's and 30's, and some of us enjoy things like cooking, gardening, performance art, books, music-playing, activism, organizing events, playing outside and so on. Queer-friendly!
The cooperative:We all share household responsibilities of cooking, food shopping, and cleaning. Each person helps cook dinner (and clean up) with another roommate for the house one night per week (and in return, you get 4-5 nights of dinner available to you). We buy vegan food for the house (although you can buy/cook non-vegan food for yourself). We have a house meeting every other week where we check-in, communicate things in constructive ways, and make decisions by consensus. Sometimes we use thecommon spaces in the house for fun events.
If you are interested (yay!) please respond to the questions below and email them to us at info at beauforthouse.org
