Looking for a friendly flatmate to share our lovely freshly refurbished home with.
For context, my flatmate just moved out due to a personal emergency. We've had a great time living in this flat and I'm now looking for a new person to share it with.
You'll be living with me - a super easy-going individual with a background in film. I currently work at a human insights agency and go to the office 1-2 times a week. I'm always up for a chat or a movie night, but I also need and value alone time and respect other people's personal space and co-habitual preferences.
In terms of the space itself, the flat features a bright spacious living room and kitchen area with direct views to the park. The double room comes fully furnished with a double bed, a brand new wardrobe, a smart TV, and also an optional desk that can be added upon request. Separately, you also get your own massive bathroom that's situated right next to the room. There's also a big garden at the back that's perfect for just chilling outside when the weather is not absolutely miserable.
We've also got a washer dryer machine hidden in an utility closet. Plus the kitchen space also comes fully equipped with modern appliances including a dishwasher and a full arsenal of kitchen items that can be shared.
Last but not least, we also just had a cleaning company do a professional clean of the flat, so the space is sparkling clean and waiting for its new occupant.
Our monthly rent of £1350 per person (excluding bills) hasn't changed for the past three years despite the economic landscape.
The monthly bills breakdown is currently as follows:
- Internet: £30 per person
- Council Tax: £90 per person
- Gas / Electricity: varies but usually in the range of £40-£60 per person (the flat has an energy rating band B and the living room gets warm naturally because of the direct sunlight, so the electricity / heating cost is mostly very reasonable)
Total: £150 bills (roughly) + £1350 rent = £1500 per month (roughly)
We do also have a deposit requirement of a full month's rent in advance, but other than that the contract is quite flexible - it's a standard fixed 6-month initial term agreement with a one-month notice period from then on.
Our house is literally at the doorstep of Finsbury Park and just a stone's throw away from Manor House and Finsbury Park stations where you can hop on a train to pretty much anywhere in London and be there in no time.
It's not the biggest flat on the market, but it's truly a tiny oasis that I hope I can share with another friendly human being.
If this looks like it could be your next home, please drop me a line :)
