A lovely bright room in my home is available now for short or longer let, depending on circumstances.
£550pcm + bills. I prefer if you can call me to talk, but messaging is fine too.

The space -
Large bright bedroom, wardrobe, chest of drawers, bedside units, front facing, s/w. Table and chair/desk as needed.
Great homely lounge/dining room, with period furniture, and some project pieces. Solid fuel stove, wooden floor.
Compact, kitchen, washing machine, gas hob, electric oven. Lovingly cared for real wood worktop. no tumble dryer, dishwasher or microwave.
Bathroom not enormous, but ample, there is a bath with mains shower over.
I use a multi fuel stove, wonderful in the winter, but it does have the addition of expense and manual work to maintain and feed. It can heat the whole place up, and frequently that is what I use.
It's a quiet area and the neighbours are all super. There is free on street parking and great bus links, shops and local amenities. (Supermarkets, Library, PO, chemist, etc)
I have a lovely non-manicured garden and shared washing green. I like singing, crafts nature and reusing things and I do the occasional screen binge, but there is not a TV.
2 minutes to the bypass, 15 to airport. Napier and Heriot Watt, Hermiston, Gyle and Edinburgh Park all close. 10 minute walk to the Pentlands, woods, walks, nature.

Me -
Hello, I'm Sylvia. I'm a creative person, and I work from home mostly. I am self employed running a unique tour company. I have a sense of humour...yes, we all do! mwaha
My values are important to me, and I hope to find a person that shares at least a few for us to be compatible sharing a living space. I use minimal chemical cleaners and perfumed pharma products. I prefer and practice healthy eating and sleeping habits. I enjoy cooking, crafts and laughter. I like to be sociable and have a drink, as well as sitting quietly reading or sewing. My work means that I am in and out and often quite busy around the weekends. I enjoy gardening and foraging, nature and building things. I would try and fix something before throwing it away and generally I don't like excessive waste. I am always up for learning new things. I love animals, also eat them sometimes!

You? -

Mature, no I don't mean old and fuddery, but that you know how to clean up after yourself, and be mindful that you leave things as you would like to find them, or better.
Cleaning, especially bathroom and kitchen, regularly rather than when it gets gross!
Be able to communicate and ask questions without judgement.
Honest, respectful and open minded.
Be observant and pull your weight in a household.
Female preferred.. if I'm allowed to say that now! and sorry if this offends, but if you haven't read to here and reply with just, 'when can i see the room', i am far less likely to reply to you! Fair warning. this is not just a place to sleep eat and sh....

Bills are variable, council tax band D, £162.5, gas/elec £100+ pcm depending on time of year. Bills will be shared.

Thanks for reading, and look forward to hearing from you.
Sylvia
