Seeking roommate for 2 BR / 2 BA apartment in Pahrump, NV (about an hour from Las Vegas). Apartment was built a year ago, and was amply baked out and ventilated. The apartment has off-gassed nicely.

Available bedroom is 11 x 10 with walk-in closet. Rent for the room is $600, out of a total of $1400 for the apartment (I have the larger master bedroom). Utilities are not included, and you will be responsible for half of the electric, water, and trash. You will have your own private bathroom. I am willing to test for mold, as long as the cost is reasonable.

This duplex is part of a fourplex (groups of two side-by-side apartments are separated by a breezeway). Three of the apartments are inhabited by mold- and chemically-sensitive individuals (including myself).

The unit is carpet-free, has no dishwasher (those go moldy!), and would, of course, be entirely fragrance- and chemical-free. So far, one neighbor has Wi-Fi. She turns it off at night, and we turn off our phones as well.

Possible deal-breaker for you: I have a dog. Summers are hot. My dog does love people as well as other dogs. She is a short-haired, housebroken, 40-lb. dog.

Pahrump is near some truly pristine wilderness areas with good air, including Red Rock Canyon wilderness area, Mt. Charleston, Lovell Canyon, Ash Meadows, and Death Valley National Park. The Tecopa hot springs are about 45 minutes from here.

The apartment complex itself abuts a large open field, and is separated from other buildings. Within walking distance are a beautiful desert demonstration garden, and Calvada Eye Park.

I need a non-smoker who is good at mold avoidance and free of scents and chemical products. I prefer someone who isn't hyper-focused on talk of illness. A somewhat uplifting attitude helps.

If you have a dog or cat, you will need to be on the lease after you have determined tolerability. I am allergic to cats, but might consider a cat if we (you, myself, the cat, my dog) are a good match.

Being on the lease is not essential, though encouraged. You are free to test the house and room out for a certain time, within reasonable limits before you make a final decision.

If you think you might be interested, shoot me a message. First pic is view of Mt. Charleston from backyard.
