Description

I am an Associate Research Professor in Drexel's Dornsife School of Public Health to rent the master bedroom plus en suite in an apartment in my duplex. I live with my family in the first floor unit and am renting out the top unit bedrooms (2nd and 3rd floors). The place is very close to UPenn or Drexel main campus on public transit (<10 min), bike (8-10 min), or walking (20-25 min). We've also hosted tenants that go The Children's Hospital of Philadelphia (10-15 min public transit), Temple University (35-40 min public transit) and St. Joseph's University (35-40 min public transit). This master bedroom is on the top floor of the home (3rd floor) and is completely furnished with a king bed, desk & office chair, lamps, and closet storage and has its own en suite. It shares a living room, kitchen area, and laundry (washer/dryer) with other tenants whose bedrooms are on the main (2nd floor) of the building. It has great light all year round, and is very quiet. The kitchen/living area is furnished with appliances & cooking essentials (dining table & chairs, dishes, utensils, cooking tools, food storage, etc.) and a couch. We prefer tenants seeking a longer term stay (e.g., academic year of Aug-Jun), but are happy to consider shorter stays so please reach out. We welcome international visitors and have hosted many before from all over the world. We speak Spanish and Portuguese fluently.
