Hello!
All of my current roommates are moving on so I am looking for 3 new ones to join me in our lovely Battersea house for the next 12 months Starting Feb 10.
A bit about the area:
Located 15 mins walk from both the park and Clapham Junction, we’re in a lovely area that has good access to nature and also entertainment. There are also plenty of buses so getting into central London isn’t really a problem and clapham junction station is a short walk away as well if you need to go further.
About the place:
We’re lucky enough to have both a small garden and a living room area with a couch which is pretty cool. This makes having people round quite easy as there’s enough space to sit by the table/on the couch or even in the garden when it’s warmer out. 4 bedrooms, 3 bathrooms.
About the rooms:
Spread across 2 floors, a bit about each:
- Room 1 (en-suite, downstairs): 2.5m x 3.5m, built in storage, £1050
- Room 2: 2.5m x 3.4m, built in storage,
overlooks garden, £980
- Room 3: 2.15m x 3.5m, overlooks garden, £910 (will add a pic shortly)
I also have an en-suite which means everyone more or less has their own space which is great!
As for bills, depending on the season it ranges around £50-100 per person per month for everything (electricity, water, gas, council tax, etc)
A bit about me:
My name’s Tom, I’m a 24 year old from South Africa but I’ve lived across Europe for most of my life now. I grew up in Luxembourg and then went to university in the Netherlands to study aerospace engineering before working in Lithuania for a while doing “climate tech” venture capital. I then moved to London in Sep 2024 to start my MSc in energy technologies at Imperial College.
I love to have a bbq w friends when it’s nice out and I enjoy cooking in general. I also like sports or going to the park or the pub, I’m up for anything really. Other than that, I can sometimes get a bit busy w my uni stuff so I do appreciate the need for space at times.
It would really be great to find people who are keen to make the house more of a home and who are in a similar stage of life in general.
Ideal Roommate:
- Age: 22-28
- Young professional or later stage studies
- Guys/girls both welcome
- Happy with an international house
- Social and friendly and clean
Rental agreement:
- 4 bedrooms
- 3 toilets/showers
- EPC - C
- Council Tax band C (Wandsworth has one of the lowest council taxes in the country)
- £3950 per month total
- Bills around £50-100 per month per person (for Dec we paid around £80)
- 12 month contract
- Starting Feb 10
Hard Requirements:
- Must have the right to reside in the UK
- Must have a UK based guarantor (even if coming in from abroad and even if employed)
A UK phone number will also be needed to sign the lease (it's a quirk of the platform we use) but you can use an eSIM for this if you don’t have one right now.
If interested, please make sure you meet the hard requirements first to save us both time (nothing I can do about them), and send me a description of yourself along with answering these 3 quick questions:
- If you could do anything for a year (can’t be career oriented at all) what would you do? (Specifically what exactly…)
- What is the best adventure you’ve been on or want to do?
- If you had to pick 3 cuisines (Can’t pick Italian) for the rest of your life and 1 genre of music what would they be?
Please note, the timeline here is tight so I will be closing this by Jan 17!
I look forward to hearing from you!
Cheers,
Tom
