Room in a shared flat

Hello! We live in a super central 84 m² apartment in district 6 – directly behind Dynamo, only two minutes from Letten. The room would be available for move-in from September, possibly also from August, and costs 1290 CHF/month. We are looking for someone of our age who has a desire for a shared flat (no utility shared flat:) About us: Joachim (39) is still relatively new to Zurich, but has already settled in well – especially thanks to our house community on the fourth floor, with whom we often do something. He works as a train design engineer in Winterthur and spends his free time hiking, snowboarding, at the gym, or making pasta himself. You can also find him cozily on the couch with a Netflix series or with friends at festivals and in the city. Nadine (29) works in social science research at ETH and in barrier-free consulting at the University of Zurich. She is also completing her master's degree in political science at UZH and is involved in various socio-political projects. In her free time, she likes to go on long bike tours through Europe, dog-sitting, sports (CrossFit, boxing, snowboarding, hiking), or takes care of the many plants that make the shared living room a jungle. As a new hobby, she has set her mind on the voluntary fire department, and sometimes you can also find her with knitting needles or a series marathon on the sofa. We have a family garden in Hirslanden, where you are welcome to contribute and use it accordingly! The location: Two minutes from the front door, tram lines 50, 51, and 17 run. On foot, you are at the main station in eight minutes. There is a beautiful winter garden that can be completely opened to the balcony in summer and is used as a tomato growing station or for baking pizza with a pizza oven. On the other side of the apartment, there is a small balcony. The room: The room is approximately 14 m² in size (it looks bigger in reality than in the photos;) and has a small niche that perfectly fits a 140x200cm bed. It is currently furnished, but can also be taken over (partially) unfurnished. The window faces the street side with the tram, but it is quiet with the window closed. Overall, the apartment is very quiet despite its central location due to good insulation. Shared flat life: We consider a communal, but uncomplicated living together important. We would find it nice if our new flatmate had a desire to live together rather than parallel to each other, also to eat together, to actively contribute to the house and garden, to brunch on weekends, or to make excursions, to share food and circle of friends, and also to take responsibility and initiative. Respectful, appreciative interaction and open communication are key to us. We don't have a fixed cleaning schedule - so far it has always worked out to clean according to needs -, but we can also adjust that. However, a clean apartment and appreciation of our home are very important to us. For those who are relevant: we are a couple, both have many years of shared flat experience, and consciously decide on a communal living together. The apartment is a home for everyone, where everyone has the same rights and duties. Our current flatmate is moving in with her boyfriend, which is why we are looking for a new person. Would you like to get to know us? We would be happy to hear from you, who you are, what you are about, why you would like to live with us, what is important to you for living together. Best regards Joachim and Nadine
