Room for Rent
We’re looking for a new tenant for a small, lightly furnished room in our spacious 200 sqm apartment in Nørrebro. We are Emilie and Kasper (married), and we share our beautiful, classic Copenhagen apartment by renting out two rooms. Mitchel currently lives in the larger room, and now we’re looking for a woman/AFAB person to move into the smaller one. This is a queer friendly home. So it is important that that all genders, sexualities, nationalities and cultures feel safe here.
The room features a built-in 200 x 140 cm loft bed with standing height underneath (ceilings are 3 meters high). There is also a built-in wardrobe and a small sofa bed below, as well as access to the dining room and the back staircase. The furniture is included as part of the rental. Rent is 3,600 DKK per month, with a deposit of two months’ rent. Standard subletting terms apply. Move in on May 1st or ASAP. You get a 3 month trial period and after that we guarantee the next three months. We hope you will live with us for much longer though.
About us
Kasper (35) is Danish and currently studying at the IT University. He spends most of his days at home, immersed in his studies in his favorite corner of the living room. He’s introverted but warm and open-minded—just a quiet country boy who takes his time to open up. He enjoys live music, running, cycling, nature, and Magic: The Gathering. He often goes for long walks and loves finding a good deal in supermarket flyers. His family from Jutland occasionally visits and stays over, especially when there are concerts in Copenhagen.
Emilie (36) is Danish, working as a psychomotor therapist in a kindergarten in Frederiksberg. She is constantly starting new creative projects and has already renovated five rooms in the apartment. She cares for plants, knits, sews, and is currently learning embroidery. Emilie loves roller skating, swims all year round, and has recently been practicing acro yoga—something Kasper has also started exploring. She has a spiritual side, with a special connection to the moon, and occasionally hosts cacao ceremonies in the main hall. You may notice small signs of rituals throughout the home.
Mitchel (32) is from New Zealand and works as a computer engineer. He has an active social life and is often out with friends from his badminton club. He enjoys badminton, yoga, fitness, game nights, concerts, and frequently travels around Europe to visit friends. Sometimes his friends visit here too, bringing an international atmosphere into the home.
About the home
We share several lovely common areas equally: a living room, dining room, hallway, kitchen, toilet, and bathroom. There is also a large hall, which Emilie has started using for client sessions and both private and professional ceremonies. When not in use for work, the space is open for everyone to use—for training, meditation, or dancing.
All bedrooms are private spaces and are only entered by agreement. The small room you would be renting provides access to the attic, and we will always inform you in advance when access is needed—on average about once a month—so you can give consent.
We rarely host parties—about once a year or less—but we’ll always let you know in advance if we’re having guests over for dinner or a game night (Mitchel loves games).
We clean together every Sunday and take our cleaning routine seriously. Occasionally someone might be a day or two behind, but tasks are always completed. Ideally, cleaning is done on the assigned day, or just before or after. If you’re traveling, we’ll agree on a solution in advance. Creative projects may sometimes leave temporary clutter, but it’s usually because something is in progress. At move-in, there may still be minor organizational or electrical work ongoing in shared spaces, but we expect everyone to take shared responsibility for keeping common areas tidy. We value a relaxed trust that what’s left today will be taken care of tomorrow—no need to stress about actively living in the space.
Sometimes we have kids over for half a day or a weekend and sometimes we dogsit for an evening or a whole week. So it's important that you are not allergic to dogs.
The building
Our neighbors are mostly families with older children. The upstairs neighbors are very sweet but quite active—you’ll hear them moving around at times. They have a dog that barks occasionally, though never for long. They don’t play loud music, but as they are still settling in, you should expect to use earplugs now and then.
