Double room:
£465pcm

My old flatmate moved out recently and I'm looking for someone to move into his double room. The price includes rent, and all bills but not council tax. The council tax would bring the total price per month to £565, or £505 for students.

About the flat:

The flat is in a modern building in a quiet area of town, close to Glasgow University, Kelvingrove Park and the Kelvin Walkway. It comes fully furnished with double glazing throughout. Apart from the two double bedrooms there is a single guest room, usually used for hanging laundry. There are also two storage cupboards and the flat comes with a parking space in the garage.

Your bedroom would face north into the communal garden/patio which is usually empty and quiet (and sometimes has cats). It would come with a desk, office chair, bedside table and two in-built closets.
You would also have the main bathroom (pictured) to yourself.

The flat is within walking distance from several transport links and grocery stores:
- 3 minutes to Maryhill Road bus stops
- 3 minutes to Tesco Express
- 6 minutes to Iceland and Lidl
- 8 minutes to Kelvinbridge Subway Station and Great Western Road bus stops
- 15-20 minutes to Glasgow University

The flat is let through an agency which will require a reference and credit check.

About me:

I'm a 25-year-old from Croatia who has lived around different parts of Europe throughout his life. I work full time as a researcher at Glasgow University, meaning I've been working from home for the past three months. I've been in Glasgow for 7 years now so I can help you settle in and show you around if you're new to the area.

I'm definitely on the quiet/homebody side of the flatmate spectrum; I prefer coffee shops to pubs and nights in to nights out. I like my alone time and I'm quiet unless I'm having people over, which means I'll know to give you your own space. I am pretty tidy, especially when it comes to the kitchen, and after seven years of flat-sharing I know how to communicate about flat issues.

When there isn't a pandemic going on I enjoy going on hikes and lounging in coffee shops. I read a decent bit and like to play video or board games with friends.

I also really enjoy cooking. I tend to spend quite a bit of time in the kitchen and like trying new recipes and window-shopping for kitchen equipment. I also bake semi-frequently which means you'll often get free slices of cake.

About you:

I am looking for someone who can give others their own space and keep the place tidy. At the same time I don't want to live with a ghost; I don't expect us to become fast friends but I like to know my flatmates well enough to have movie or game nights over shared takeout. If you're willing to cook together, even better. If you're open to sharing recipes, music tastes and book recommendations, that's close to ideal.

I'm a professional but I'm willing to live with a postgraduate or PhD student. I'd prefer someone on the quieter side but I don't mind if you spend a lot of time in the flat. Having people over is okay, within reason (in non-pandemic times) and I'm fine with the occasional party if the occasion arises.

I expect you to be able to communicate about issues like an adult and I will try my best to do the same.

If you're interested, just message me and we can arrange a video call before getting around to physical viewings.
