Mayor Bill de Blasio is seeking a new tenant for his one-bedroom rental at 384 11th Street in Park Slope.

The [Street Easy ad](http://streeteasy.com/building/384-11-street-brooklyn/2?ref=bklyner.com) for the unit describes it as a “Sunny & Sweet 1 Bedroom In Private House, For Rent In Prime South Slope.”

The rental is located on the top floor of a two-story, two-family house and features a front porch, a “comfortable, sunfilled, and flexible layout,” as well as storage space and a shared washer and dryer in the basement. No pets and no smoking allowed.

The $1,825/month rent seems like a decent deal after a quick search on [Rent Hop](https://www.renthop.com/search/nyc?location%5Fsearch=&bedrooms%5B0%5D=1&min%5Fprice=0&max%5Fprice=8000&q=&neighborhoods%5Fstr=50&sort=hopscore&search=0&page=1&ref=bklyner.com) shows that one-bedrooms in this zip code tend to go for $2,000 and up.

The mayor got some flak in 2015 after he raised the rent on this apartment from $1,800 to $1,825 while he was lobbying for a rent freeze for NYC’s Rent Guidelines Board. Due to this building’s small size, it is not required to be a part of the state’s rent stabilization program, according to [6sqft](https://www.6sqft.com/rent-a-one-bedroom-in-mayor-de-blasios-park-slope-home-for-1825-a-month/?ref=bklyner.com).

De Blasio and his wife Chirlane McCray purchased the quaint two-family house in June 2004 for $612,500, according to [Property Shark](https://www.propertyshark.com/mason/Property-Report/?propkey=143394&ref=bklyner.com). The current market value of the building is more than $1.5 million.
