Hi,
We’re looking for a third housemate to join a calm, clean, and well-functioning home in Newington Green (N5).
You’ll be living with two women (one working professional currently doing a Master’s, and one artist) and Muk, a very gentle (and slightly demanding) 17-year-old Siberian cat.
This is a home built on easy communication, mutual respect, and a natural rhythm that works. We get on very well, share space comfortably, and also give each other room to breathe.
We are a progressive, open-minded household and value inclusivity, respect, and awareness of others.
🏡 The Room
Garden-facing double room with:
• Bed with large storage
• Two-door wardrobe
• Quiet, green view
🌿 The House
Ground floor Victorian flat on a quiet residential street, yet very well connected
• A huge, well-maintained green garden
• Small kitchen + cosy living room
• Art-filled space with character
• Great relationship with our landlord
• Friendly, low-key neighbours
It’s a peaceful, warm space that we actively care for and invest in.
📍 The Area – Newington Green
Newington Green is one of North London’s most desirable pockets, known for its village feel and creative community.
Nearby highlights:
• Clissold Park – large green space, ideal for walks and downtime
• Stoke Newington Church Street – independent shops, cafés, and restaurants
• A mix of local bakeries, wine bars, and small businesses
Transport connections:
• Canonbury Overground Station – quick links to East & Central London 5 minutes
• Dalston Kingsland Station nearby 15 minutes
• Multiple buses with easy access to the City and beyond
You get a rare balance of green space + strong connections + community feel
🌱 The Atmosphere
Mostly calm, clean, and quiet
Occasionally music, dinners, or friends over
Balanced, respectful, and easy to live in
👀 Who This Works Best For
Someone who:
• Works full-time (ideally office-based or out most days)
• Is easygoing, independent, and socially aware
• Communicates directly and is comfortable with others who do the same
• Is naturally tidy and contributes to maintaining the home
• Love cats & dogs
⚖️ Important Details
• Occasional WFH is fine, but not full-time
• Good ventilation habits are essential (we actively manage airflow and humidity)
• No couples
🚫 Not the Right Fit If You:
• Spend most of your time at home
• Are messy but think you’re tidy
• Avoid direct communication or are easily overwhelmed by it
• Want to reshape the home to your own way of living
• Burn incense, sage, or similar (allergy in the house)
💫 Perks of Living Here
• Huge garden in London (rare at this price point)
• Calm, drama-free home with strong communication
• Creative, thoughtful environment
• Respectful flatmates who already have a good dynamic
• A home that feels like a place to recharge
💬 To Apply
Please message with:
• A short intro about yourself
• Your work/lifestyle routine
• What matters to you in a shared home and what bothers you living with other (be honest)
We’ll invite selected people for viewings. We would like to start viewing from Monday 13th.
