A spacious en-suite double bedroom is available in a very large, fully furnished 4-bedroom detached house in Eskbank.
The house is over 145m² and will be shared with two female University of Edinburgh PhD students from North America. One studies at the Royal (Dick) School of Veterinary Studies and the other at New College. Therefore female student preferred.
There are four double bedrooms in total, but only three will be occupied, the fourth bed room can be used as study room, so the house will remain particularly spacious and comfortable. All bedrooms have individual locks for privacy.
The available room is the large main bedroom with its own private en-suite bathroom.
It is furnished with:
Solid oak double bed
Emma Hybrid mattress (original cost over £600)
Solid oak desk
Solid oak bedside table
