I’m renting out my cosy, well-kept flat in Manchester, located within walking distance of the popular Didsbury area. The location is ideal, with convenient bus and cycle routes into the city. A bus stop for the 50 route—running all the way to the University of Manchester, city centre, and Salford—is just a few minutes’ walk away.

This is a perfect opportunity for an academic professional or a mature PhD student. I work in another city and only visit the flat about once a month, so although you’ll pay rent for one room, you’ll have the whole flat to yourself most of the time.

A bit about me: I’m a scientist who spent several years working at the University of Manchester, and I’m now based at Durham University. I’m hoping to find someone friendly, respectful, and tidy—someone who will treat the flat as their own home.

Availability & Viewings:
The flat will be available from 15th of September, though I can be flexible if you need a slightly later date. I’ll be holding viewings on 5th and 6th of September and will choose the best match afterwards.

Details:

Rent: £625

Council Tax: Band B

Bills: typically £120–£150 depending on usage (the flat is energy efficient, so costs have been very reasonable)

Optional parking: £60/month

If you’re interested, please get in touch and tell me a little bit about yourself—Since it is an ideal leasehold situation, I get a lot of interests and I would select for the person whose criteria matches the most for scheduling the viewing :)
