We’ve got a spare large double room in a 4-bedroom flat on Mayfield Road, EH9 2NJ, and looking for someone to take over my tenancy from the 15th of May. The room is spacious with ample floor space, high ceilings, and a cosy vibe.
🛏 The Room
The pictures speak for themselves. This is a large, carpeted room with:
A large, comfortable bed
1 large window that bring in loads of natural light
A clear, open view directly onto the garden
Warm and cosy with a very open layout
It is ideal if you want proper space to study or work from home without feeling boxed in.
🏠 The Flat
You will be sharing with three friendly, tidy flatmates.
The flat has:
A shared living room that can seat 6 people easily
A shared kitchen space with refrigerator, oven, microwave, toaster and blender
A shared bathroom with a bathtub
A shared washing machine
3 shared storage rooms
High ceilings throughout, classic Edinburgh style
💷 Rent and Bills
Room rent: £663 per month
WiFi: £15.75 per month (~100 Mbps speed)
Council Tax: Band E
Students are preferred because Council Tax is fully waived.
Gas and electricity usually cost around £20 each per month on average.
📍 Location
The flat overlooks the church directly across the road, with clear views of Mayfield Road.
The area is very convenient and well-connected:
Close to Central Campus, Nicolson Street, South Bridge, King's Buildings, Cameron Toll, Blackford Hill and The Meadows
Quick buses into the city (routes 3, 7, 8, 12, 24, 29, 31, 37, 47B, 49 and N3)
Tesco and Sainsbury’s are both within walking distance
Lots of cafés, local shops and takeaways nearby, I have some recommendations ;)

Someone clean, considerate and chill. If that sounds like you, this flat is for you.
