I'm looking for a considerate housemate to take over from the current one (unfortunately she needs to move back to the U. S.!) in this spacious, well finished flat in Finnieston.

The flat is on Argyle Street, a few doors down from a small Sainsbury's and right by Kelvingrove Park. We're roughly a 20-minute walk from the university gym and pool, and about 20 minutes from Lidl. We're above a restaurant, but thankfully can't hear any noise from it.

The room

The offered room is the larger of the two bedrooms, with plenty of storage, and workspace to spare. The trade-off is your room faces the street, so there's a bit more traffic noise.

The flat has a huge shared living room and is surprisingly cosy. The kitchen and bathroom are more compact, but they've both been finished well, and the kitchen is very well equipped and has a good amount of surface space to work with.

The housemate

I'm really keen to find the right person for the flat, beyond the basics of keeping the shared places tidy and clean. I don't want you to feel like you're just squeezing yourself into someone else's home. This needs to be yours as much as mine.

That said, I would really like the new housemate to have a good understanding of their own boundaries and how to communicate them. Every great living situation I have had has been based on this. Good communication makes pretty much everything else easy, so I really value it :)

I’m an introvert that occasionally forgets it! I'll alternate between being fairly chatty if you're in the mood, and being less social while I recharge. My housemate and I will drag each other to the gym or watch films together, or even play some music together (singing and guitar), but we largely lead separate lives. We really appreciate when we’re both in the mood to hang out. However it’s not an expectation and we both value that freedom.

As for hobbies I read fairly widely and write fiction. I game and generally have a few creative projects I’m putting off at any one time. I'm definitely a geek at heart and will hopefully be playing DnD again soon.

I swim, go to the gym and would love to play more squash. If you're into fitness, do let me know. It's absolutely not essential, but I find it a little easier to motivate myself when my housemate is active too.

LGBTQ+ friendly.

Looking forward to hearing from you. Bonus points if you're a little bit weird! :) please write something in your message or profile that gives me a sense of you. As I say, I’m not just looking for someone to split the bills with but a relaxing place for us both to come home to.

Council tax: Band C
Bills: approximately £200 per person/month, including utilities, council tax and 1000 Mbps Virgin internet.

I'm away for a few days but can arrange house viewings from the 15th of October. Looking for someone to move in before the start of November (between 19th October and November 1st).

Looking forward to hearing from you! Feel free to ask any questions you have!
