Please read ad fully before replying. King-size double room available. £650/month, which includes council tax (band E), gas, electric, water rates, broadband and tv licence - shared use of living room, kitchen, conservatory, showerroom and garden.

Available from 1st June, the room potentially could be made available from a later start date, just contact me to enquire.

Sorry, but no University of Edinburgh staff or students as I work there and like to keep life and work separate.

Priestfield is 20-25 mins walk to the Meadows or Royal Mile or Royal Infirmary and about 30 mins walk to Princes St or Lothian Road. It is near the Commonwealth swimming pool, Holyrood park and adjacent to the grounds of Prestonfield House Hotel. The large Sainsbury's at Cameron Toll is 12 mins walk away. Nearby bus routes (2,30,33,14 & 12) go to the city centre, Leith, Portobello beach and Royal Infirmary.

Priestfield is a relatively peaceful, quiet, residential area. Being so close to the large green spaces of Holyrood park, golf club and the grounds of Prestonfield House means that there is plenty of wildlife in the area. The garden is frequently visited by foxes, squirrels and many types of birds. An owl can sometimes be heard from the nearby trees and there are cows in nearby fields. The place is suited to someone who appreciates the natural world and seeks to live sustainably.

For fire safety and insurance reasons, the house is a candle and vaping/smoking free space and smokers can't stay here overnight. Interlinked alarms that meet the new Scottish requirements are installed.

I own the house and it is my home. Thus anyone living here would be a lodger, which has some differences to being a tenant.

I'm looking for the right person to share the house with. I'd like to share with someone who also enjoys nature and cares about the environment. I have been fortunate to have had good flatmates and I hope to continue the pattern of having a place that we both feel 'at home' in. I do not have any pets, but may get a dog and potentially could share with well-behaved pets (except cats, they are lovely, but I'm allergic to cats).

Outside of work I enjoy the great outdoors, walking, hiking, camping and sustainable living. I'm fortunate to have a good circle of friends with similar interests. Other interests include live music, comedy and theatre.

If messaging about the room, please provide the following information if it isn't in your profile: when you would be looking to move in and for approx how long, what your study / job involves, whether you have any pets (most are ok, would need to discuss), confirm that you are a non-smoker and say the things you enjoy doing etc. Thanks.
