Hi everyone! My home is very special to me - we live in a very popular neighborhood, on the border of Williamsburg/Greenpoint in Brooklyn, NY. As the top floor of a 3-story building, we have a beautiful balcony, great for the summer! Skylight, large bathroom, open kitchen/ dining room / living room, hallway landing for storage, pantry - very cozy treehouse vibes! I live with one roommate, a good friend who is home about half the time, completing his master’s degree in photography. It is definitely an artist vibe, and you would be welcome to make things in the space! I have a dedicated painting wall in my room, with paint, brushes etc, and you would be welcome to use anything. Lots of books to read! I have a California king mattress, Midea AC in the window (best AC on the market and very quiet), monitor and desk if you need to work from home.
