Seeking a laidback, lovely lodger on a quiet, residential road in Streatham Common.

A relaxed, warm and calm household. I'm a Business Owner & Professional Creative and Educator (freelancer) with a busy schedule and my home is a sanctuary to decompress in. I'm friendly, kind and not a typical nightmare live-in landlord.

More about me below.

THE HOUSE:

The bedroom is on the first landing overlooking the garden, with a toilet next door. It's bright, spacious, quiet and peaceful.

(The light fixture has been replaced, as have the blinds and new blackout curtains added)

The kitchen and bathrooms were renovated in 2025. (Will add more pics)

✨️ The dining table is in the living room and of course always accessible. I do however often WFH in the living room and use it regularly for auditions, meetings & online workshops at various times which take priority, so the living room access is limited ✨️

I have a gorgeous, chilled & affectionate 3 year old cat named Cleo - she enters/exits to the garden through the bedroom window electronic catflap. (Linked to her microchip.) She's well trained and loves people.

A BIT ABOUT ME:

A Professional Actor, Educator & Creative. I run my own biz too.

I'm really sociable, sometimes hosting close friends or family. Into spirituality, fitness/wellbeing & astrology. A social butterfly, I love to dance, cook, attend live events, the arts and travelling. I often get event invites (+1 anyone?) But I can be a bit of homebody with a cuppa & a good film, my books or a TV show. I also do tarot. 🔮

Although I have my own friends, it would be nice to be friendly & catch up over food or occasionally head to the best local spots, have the odd series binge/film night. A monthly dinner, cooking together at home has been a past fave. (Or a cheeky takeaway!)

I have got on fantastically with past Lodgers and do my best to make it feel like a home. Yes, I'm 40, young at heart with life experience!
