If you are looking for a spacious, clean, professional and friendly fully furnished property, then this is for you.

It's 15min walk to the city centre with close proximity to the A690 (on route to Sunderland, Newcastle, Darlington, etc.).

The house has three spacious fully furnished double (DB) rooms.

Our lovely young professional, who has stayed with us since 2020, is returning back home by the end of February 2022. She is looking for someone to take her room.

There are two postgraduate females in the house, friendly, very considered of others and tidy.

We can provide recommendations from our latest tenants who have stayed with us for over two years too. A sample of tenants' feedback is shown within the photo gallery here.

Our property complies with Health and Safety regulations. We have the required certificates to prove it.

The property is maintained annually (internally and externally, including inventory items).

This way all your essential bills are taken care of within your rental payment, allowing you to budget for the duration of your stay in advance.

Who are your landlords/ landlady?

This is a family run business. My name is Maria and I am a Senior Lecturer. I have worked 21 years in Higher Education and have ample experience dealing with International and home students. I was an international student¦ so I am familiar with all the challenges that come with it. As a student, I lived in numerous accommodations and houses. I have had some good experiences but some rather bad ones too. So, I promised myself that one day, if I could afford it, I would have my own student house which would offer the safety and homely environment that students who live away from home deserve. I am pleased that I was able to make this dream reality. Our tenants'€™ testimonials (see pdfs attached) prove that we have succeeded in providing a good customer service.
If you wish to find out more (how rent is worked out; additional services) please contact us. I also have an online/ professional profile where you can check my credentials.
Thank you for reading our SpareRoom advert!
