The ROOMS: Two comfortable doubles with plenty of storage space and Victorian features. Bedroom 1 shares the Jacuzzi/bath and shower and small kitchen with one other lodger on that floor. Bedroom 2 shares a shower room with one other lodger, and uses the main kitchen downstairs.

These rooms would suit post-graduate students or a professional who wants a female-only household in a peaceful environment close to central Edinburgh.

In addition to your room/bathroom, you will have complete access to the shared spaces on the ground floor. These include the TV/snug and open-plan dining room, the lavatory/laundry, the garden and decked patio. You are always welcome to come have a cuppa and a chat in the main kitchen on the ground floor, but you can also choose to stay in the flat and chill there in your own space.

LOCATION AND AMENITIES: We are on Gilmour Road in EH16, a short walk to The King's Buildings campus and great bus links to the other campuses, with transport to the Vet school, and proximity to The Royal Infirmary. We also have a direct bus to The Western General (about 35-40 mins), and we are only 10-15 mins into town with excellent transport links elsewhere. The stop is a two-minute walk away and you can find the following buses, amongst others: 3.7.8.21.24.29.31.35.37.47 ...

PARKING: free 24/7 on-street parking on the opposite side of the road, and outwith the hours of 11:00 - 12:30 am on weekdays. No restrictions on weekends.

SHOPPING: The nearest shopping centre is Cameron Toll, a short walk. It's got a Sainsbury's, Aldi, Boots, WH Smith, Costa, several banks and other shops.

BILLS: these are included in the rent, eg. council tax, broadband, etc. During winter months we have a house conversation about the power bill and if the bill rises exponentially, we split the inevitable increase during these few months.

OTHER HOUSEMATES: Female household, mainly post-graduate and I work in the creative and charity sectors. We like pizza and movie nights, but are happy within our own space, too.

If you're looking for a party house, this isn't it. It's a safe and tranquil place to live. The wildest we get is hotpot and pizza/film when the mood strikes. Housemates are on varied schedules and the emphasis is on consideration and respect for others.

If you think you'd fit our household and would like to know more, please do get in touch and I'd be happy to have a video-call or arrange an in-person viewing.

(No couples or pets, sorry.)
