Hello!

I am looking for a flatmate to join me in my two bedroom flat. Below is an overview of the room, the flat, the location and also a little about me. I am very happy to arrange a Skype viewing or a (socially distanced) in-person viewing.

About the Room

- Furnished room with small double bed, reading light, desk, chair, chest of drawers and clothes rail (inc. hangers).
- The window is curtained and shuttered.
- If there is anything missing which you think should be added to the room I would be glad to know about it.
- I can provide bed linens, towels and pillows if required.
- There is not a great deal of storage space in the room for big items like suitcases so I am happy to help by storing them in my room where there is an auxiliary cupboard. There is storage space under the bed.

The Rest of the Flat

- Tastefully decorated living room with dining table, coffee table and bookshelves.
- Washing machine and dryer in flat.
- Modern kitchen, bathroom & separate WC.
- Appliances inc. dishwasher and Nespresso machine (not visible in pictures but they are definitely there, be assured!).
- Clean and bright throughout.
- Fast internet (BT Fiber Optic)
- Low C energy rating (=reasonably priced energy bills)
- Shared garden with picnic table and seating.
- On-street parking permit available.

Location

- 2 mins from grocery stores
- 10 mins walk to George Sq./Old College
- 20 mins walk to Princes St (i. e. Edinburgh city centre)
- 5 mins from the Meadow
- 5 mins to Arthur's Seat

About me:

I recently graduated and start as a trainee solicitor in August. At the moment it looks like I will be working from home but I am hoping to be back in the office in the not too distant future.

I have lived in Edinburgh for approaching 7 years. I am cheerful, polite and conversational. I will ask how your day went and if you need anything from the shops when I go! I would hope to keep an open and honest relationship and good communication with my flatmate so I am looking for someone who is up for that!

I am easy going and will try to adapt to your routine and habits. I like to keep the place clean and tidy though I am not chasing after every particle of dust!

When I am not working I am usually reading something, exercising, socialising with friends or playing piano. There used to be a piano in the flat but I recently removed it. I am hoping to replace it at some stage, although with something digital so noise pollution should not be a concern. I like to have folk over for evening drinks now and then but I don't live unsocial hours or party excessively (and won't especially now that my student days are over!). Ideally you will be happy to mix with my friends as I will be with yours.

Some things to note:
- I am looking to split Council Tax (which I anticipate will come to ~£70 per month per person).
- WiFi is included in the headline rent figure but other bills (i. e. gas, electricity and council tax) are additional and will be split evenly when the invoice is received.
