Hi!

I’m looking for someone to take over my room, since I’m moving out by the end of February. The ideal move-in date would be March 1st, but a later date would work if you’re willing to pay the rent for the whole (or most of) the month. Short term lets (shorter than a month) are okay, but only if they start on March 1 -- you would only pay for the time you stay, of course.

On the room

The room is roughly 2.5m x 3.5m, it is located on the groundfloor, and has three huge windows with a view to the backyard. The windows face to the West, so you’ll never lack natural light in the afternoon (provided there is natural light outside ;)). There is only a very narrow, almost non-transited street behind the house, so the room is very quiet at night. The room includes all pieces of furniture seen in the picture (bed base, mattress, desk, wardrobes, chair, drawers).

On the house
The house has 5 bedrooms – 2 in the groundfloor and 3 in the first floor. We have 2 full-bathrooms (one in each floor), kitchen, front yard and back yard. There are shared pots, pans, and cuttlery, but you could bring your own, of course.

Life in the house share

You would live with 3 professionals and 1 PhD student (Urban studies, UCL) between 25 and 40. Life in the house is really easy going, everybody is quite busy with work/uni, so they leave somewhat early, come back in the evening and then simply chill. Also, at least 2 flatmates travel quite often so it is actually rare to have a week where everyone is around.

Admin.
Let me know if you’re interested, I’ll do viewings on Wednesday 25.02, Thursday 26.02 and Friday 27.02. If you want to take the room, you will have to pay a 300 GBP holding deposit to the landlady, besides sending her your ID, Right to Rent, and proof of income. She will be the one deciding who will take the room. The landlady is actually quite approachable and responsive, often fixing problems (defective microwave, clogged drains, etc.) within 1 or 2 days of reporting it. I think this is one of the best aspects of the house, considering how unconsiderate landlords or agencies in London can be.
