Hello! We’re Fran, Charlotte, and Joe, a friendly group of two PhD students and one Masters student living in a spacious, cosy 4-bed home in The Crescent, right next to Churchill College. Our housemate is moving to Edinburgh, so we’re looking for someone new to join our household. Ideally, we’d love to find another student, but we’re open to the right fit!
About the room:
It’s a single room on the second floor sharing a bathroom with one other person. The room comes unfurnished, but Fran would be moving into a different room in the house and would be willing to sell the furniture at a cheap price!
Rent is £556 pcm (excluding bills). Bills usually come to around £100 per month (which includes WiFi and utilities etc). If you’re a professional we would need to negotiate splitting the council tax.
About the house:
We’ve got a bright and spacious open-plan communal area on the first floor (with a balcony!) perfect for relaxing in the evenings. There’s also a garage for bikes, both on- and off-street parking, a utility room, and loads of storage space.
The location is great too — just a 5-10 minute cycle into town, with Eddington Sainsbury’s, Aldi, and Co-op nearby. The U bus to the train station stops just a 2-minute walk away. It’s a quiet, tucked-away spot off Madingley Road, and we even have a few friendly resident ducks in the area!
A bit about us:
We’re all in our twenties and doing PhDs in the sciences. While we lead our own busy lives, we enjoy catching up in the evenings, watching TV together, or sharing the occasional meal or takeaway. Hobbies in the house include music, painting, and running, but we’re always keen to welcome new interests and friendly faces.
The room will be available from the 1st of November.
If this sounds like it could be a good fit for you, drop us a message and tell us a little about yourself: we’d love to hear from you! :)
