Self contained, spacious 1 double bedroom annex, which forms part of our 3 bedroom bungalow.
We are hoping to find either a practical person willing to help out with odd jobs about the place now and again, or a contractor in search of digs.
The accomodation includes: a double bedroom with ensuite, a large open plan kitchen / living / dining area, and shared use of the front garden and side sheltered courtyard. It is fully furnished, (but would be happy to switch some furniture for a lodger's own stuff if desired). Parking is free on street parking and readily available in our quiet residential street.
All bills are included (at current rates, and stable usage with lodgers over many years). Regular maintenance checks are undertaken.
A cleaning service is available should the lodger not have time to maintain the annex to a reasonable standard of cleanliness themselves.
I live in the adjacent, but separate part of the bungalow with my son and JR dog. We are a quiet and amenable household and would welcome a quiet and amenable, professional lodger, (my current lodger brought his dog to stay occasionally and this worked out well).
Please note that the living space is not shared, but emergency or repair access to the household fusebox and mains water faucet is retained. These are located under the annex sink and to the right of this on the far wall is the fuse box. Communication with the lodger over such access requirement would be clear and with advance warning. This access requirement would not impinge upon the lodger's day to day use of the large open plan living space, which is for the lodger's use only.
Prospective lodgers must be non smoking and have good references.
Reviews from previous lodgers :
"This has been my home from home for more than 4 years now and I wouldn’t have stayed this long if it wasn’t good. The annexe has everything you need, it is clean, well maintained, quiet and in a good location. Doone is a great host, she is professional, courteous and respectful. Having contracted for many years and stayed in lots of different accommodations, this is one of the best available for a reasonable price" Phil Hall (October 2021 - April 2026)
"Like home from home, quiet and peaceful & Doone always kept the place tidy and clean for me" Joe McGrath March 2021 - May 2021
"My time in this accomodation has been excellent. It had everything I needed during my stay. Perfect for contractors. Doone had all the bases covered with regard to social distance, cleaning of the flat...Doone was very welcoming and helpful for which I'm very grateful." Stewart Hancocks June 2020 - March 2021
