Open room, available at the beginning of October - read on and see if this speaks to you.
THE PLACE:
The room is on the first floor, unfurnished. You are welcome to paint and modify it to your heart's content.
The main space is great for house dinners, art projects, having friends over, post-party debriefing, hosting events, etc. We also have a public mezzanine/cosy second living room with a tv and sofas. We have two bathrooms w/ showers and the usual amenities, and a little back garden where we can barbecue in the summer (as well as a larger courtyard we share with our neighbors).
THE PEOPLE:
There are 7 of us (plus two lovely cats), all of whom met each other through living here. Although we take plenty of time to ourselves as well, we're a pretty social bunch and like to hang out when we can (sometimes this means 'anyone up for New River tonight?', sometimes we cook together, sometimes it's afters, sometimes it's ???). Friends and partners are over frequently. We try and do a serious party a couple of times a year. At various points in the house’s long history we’ve had jam sessions, living room gigs, drag shows, film screenings, open stages, and comedy nights - what will the future hold?
At the same time, we are keen on practical DIY projects, and really try to put effort into responsibly maintaining and improving our warehouse together and keeping things functional. We share weekly chores as well as the occasional big cleanup. The house is relatively quiet after 11 on weekday evenings out of respect for typical work schedules. Warehouse living does mean thin walls though, which necessitates a high tolerance for noise as well as a flexible and lasseiz-faire attitude towards other people's business! (On that note, we are a resolutely queer-friendly and trans-friendly house.)
The rent includes all bills. We all pay £30-ish a month into a shared kitty for house supplies, cat expenses, and internet. One month's deposit plus one month's rent is payable to our landlord when you move in. There's never been any issue with deposit returns.
If this all sounds good then please send a message with a little about yourself. No CVs, no ChatGPT (we’ll know) or self-promotional jargon, just tell us what you enjoy doing with your spare time, how you like to live, what appeals to you about this place, etc.
Viewings will be sometime in early-to-mid-September - might take us a few days to get back to you because we all have to coordinate the invitations and scheduling between the seven of us, so sit tight. Looking forward to hearing from you!
