The rooms are in a 4-bed 1-bath property, which is in a 4-in-1 block in a quiet neighbourhood. Neighbours are nice. Only residents and delivery vans drive through and no outside traffic. I bought my home and moved in October 2025.
I am the live-in landlord, 36, single, a Chinese citizen, settled in the UK. I work in financial services, go to office from Monday to Wednesday, and work from home for the rest of the week at the attic level, and also sleep there.
I will appreciate someone reasonable, matured, and who will clean up after themselves. I am quite chilled, cheerful and empathetic. I love plants, beach, forests, arts, and will often be outdoors if not working.


I would love hanging out sometimes, host a flat dinner, have a small chat, etc., but also respect personal border and privacy.
My 2.5-year-old tuxedo cat, Mao, is the true master in this property. He is a gentleman, super friendly and nice. He also goes outdoors a lot.
The property is quiet and chilled most of the time.
Please send a short self-introduction about yourself, together with a list of questions you would like to ask. I can be flexible with viewing schedule.
