Description:
Double bedroom available in well-maintained flat close to city centre. Available from the end of September, but timings flexible.
The room:
A large west-facing double bedroom with two adjoining storage rooms/box rooms. All furniture is included as in the photos (except the chest of drawers).
The flat:
1st floor 2-bedroom flat, one existing flatmate (me!). The flat has a large living room with a separate kitchen-diner. It has one shared bathroom with a shower over bath. I like to keep the shared spaces tidy and with a focus on them being communal spaces. It's generally a quiet building, the other residents mostly keep to themselves. I have a good relationship with the landlord who is proactive about maintaining and repairing things in the flat. The tenancy is a joint tenancy on a rolling monthly basis.
Bills are not included and come to approx £70 each (for wifi and electricity/gas). For electricity/gas we're on a flexible monthly tariff so this varies throughout the year with how much we use. If you're eligible for council tax that'll be split too (this is £74 each per month).
Location:
The flat is in a great spot! It's incredibly central (walkable to Princes St, Waverley, Leith Walk etc) but also quiet and not super touristy. Abbeyhill is a great neighbourhood, there are lots of artisan coffee spots, restaurants, bars, gyms, and big supermarkets. There are also a number of nice gardens/parks and outdoor spaces near the flat, Calton Hill and Holyrood Park are right on the doorstep. The area is really well connected with buses and it's approximately a 10/15 minute walk to the nearest tram stop.
Me:
Hi, I'm Lucy :) I've lived in the flat for about 3 years, my current flatmate is now moving in with her partner. I'm a social worker in the city, in my spare time I like arts and culture, travelling, gigs, finding new spots to eat and drink, I love an excellent coffee and a chill Saturday morning on the sofa with a book.
Yourself:
If you're interested, drop me a short message with your age, job and what you like to do in your spare time. Ideally it would be good to meet in person to get to know each other a bit. I'm looking for someone who comes home to relax and perhaps joins me for a coffee every once in a while. Happy to discuss if you've got any questions, just get in touch!
