Hey! I'm looking for a flatmate to flat-share in this big ol' spacious aparement in Hyndland, located in the West End of Glasgow. You'll be sharing the flat just with me (Daniel, 26) and my two pet rats called Guinness and Poki. I'm a bit ntroverted, so not really looking for party people.
NOTE: I am not looking to host eresmus students as i am seeking a flatmate for a minimum term of 6 months. Apologies if this affects you.
Whats the catch? Well, see points 1 and 2 below:
#1 - since this is a pretty large tenement flat, the utilities are expensive. Council tax is around 300 a month, and because of recent events the gas and electricity is around 200 a month too. If you are interested in the flat, we will be splitting the costs down the middle, at around 250 each. This is all included in the rent, with the exception of internet which will cost an additional 25 a month. I recently got 5G mobile broadband with EE, which averages around 300-500 mpbs (i. e. very fast).
You will be paying for the following monthly:
- 450 base rent
- 150 for council tax (lower if you apply for discount)
- 100 gas/electricity
- 25 for the internet
If you are a student and are able to apply for a council tax discount, thats a nice bonus :)
#2 - IMPORTANT DISCLAIMER: I'm actually house sitting the apartment for my parents for the next two years. They have relocated down to England for work and will very likely come back up every now and then and stay IN THE APARTMENT for a short time to see family, etc (they have their own bedroom). If/when my family comes up from England, you will be given as mucb notice as possible.

ABOUT ME
Im a recent graduate and currently work from home as a full-time software developer (glasgow-based, so in office every now and then). I tend to be quiet and try to keep a tidy house, but i'm also very socialable and like to chill out. I enjoy playing video games, music, exercising, cooking and the outdoors.
I am looking for a friendly flatmate with similar interests who i'll get along with. If you arent loud and are tidy, thats obviously a plus! No smokers or pets. though, sorry.. Please let me know if you are interested. I am happy to arrange both in-person and virtual viewings :)
Sorry, the room is no longer available
