The master en-suite is on the top floor of our three-storey, A-rated semi-detached.
Your room is the best in the house, with big windows overlooking a large green, a fitted wardrobe and decent floor space.
The photos here show how it was while relatives were using it, with their Super King size bed. This will be replaced with a standard double at some point, but with minimal disturbance to you.
You will have shared use of:
- the kitchen, which includes washing machine and dishwasher. You can share all kitchenware.
- ground floor cloakroom with hooks for coats plus the guest W. C.
- shoe rack near the front door.
We do not use the dining area, and we would encourage you to.
You will have your own off-street allocated parking space.
There is a small garden currently consisting of lawn and paving, which you have to use to get to your car, but it is otherwise not really a shared space. We hope to gradually turn it into a food-growing or/and wildlife-friendly area.
We are two older ladies: My elderly mother, Joan, and me. Joan is the owner of the house and has mobility issues. I was born hearing but I am now deaf. I do not work. I care for Joan.
We spend most of our time in Joan's living room on the first floor, and we eat there in front of the TV, which we watch with subtitles and no sound.
We are omnivores, but most of our diet is vegan wholefoods. I studied macrobiotics and I cook a big lunch every day.
We respect Nature and we make efforts to minimise our ecological impact on the planet. We do not kill spiders, and we make the effort to reduce, reuse and recycle. The house is warm, but we endeavour to keep our energy use low. We do not keep radiators or lights on in rooms we are not using, or fill the kettle for just two cups. Etc.
We would like to share our house with a mentally and emotionally mature and responsible woman (we want to stick to an all-female household), who respects her own health and that of the planet.
You will need to be patient and flexible about how you communicate with me due to my hearing loss.
It is important to us that you are confident about communicating with us in a fair and reasonable manner, generally, but especially if you are unhappy about anything so we are aware and can help put things right.
Considerate friends and family may visit you, but not for overnight stays.
We are open to living with house-trained and well-behaved pets. Depending on you and any pets you might have, we are thinking of adopting a rescue animal later this year.
All the usual bills are included, including broadband and Council Tax. You would pay separately for your personal phone and contents insurance.
I do all the house cleaning myself, so you would only have to keep your own room clean, and tidy up after using the kitchen.
If you like the sound of us, we look forward to hearing from you and about you.
