Looking for a student to share my house

I just bought a three bedroom, 1.5 bath, 1400 square foot house on Green Street, walking distance to 9th street, East Campus and a very short bike ride to West Campus and the surrounding professional/graduate schools. I'm looking for someone to share my house with me. You will take one room, I'm in another and the third will be our shared office. Other rooms include a dining room and living room and a beautiful, well stocked kitchen. There is a washer and drier at the house on a service porch out back and a front porch with a ceiling fan.  There is both central heat and air and hardwood floors throughout.

The house has a fenced in yard and a work shed in the back for storage of bikes, tools and other outdoor gear. I will have a deck put on the back by the middle of September at the latest. Your room needs painting and I will paint it for you, and you can choose the color as long as it isn't too insane (no fuschia or neons, please). Rent is $700/month plus half utilities (water, electric, gas and internet).

About me:  I'm female and a first year Fuqua student, returning to school after seven years in the outdoor education and maritime industries. I have traveled a lot and love music, many different kinds of music. I did my undergraduate studies at Duke, majoring in Environmental Science and Policy at the Nicholas School. I like living with folks who do their own thing but aren't opposed to occasionally sharing a beer or a cup of coffee and swapping stories. I'm hoping to put in a garden at he house.

You: Male or female, open minded, laid back and looking to live in a clean space that is a haven from work/school. Open to having folks over occasionally for meals and maybe small gatherings but generally looking for a less busy space to relax and/or study. Maybe you have a dog? One is okay if well trained and well loved...no cats please.

If you are interested please send me an email at efa@duke.edu and we can set up a time for you to come by and look at the house. I'm looking for someone soon as possible but am not opposed to a September move in.
