This room would ideally suit contractors or agency workers who are working away from home during the week, but require a comfortable, relaxed, and friendly home away from home. You will be the only lodger in the house.
In addition to your private room, the following shared areas and resources in the home are open for you to use:
- Strong WiFi throughout with a fibre-to-the-property (FTTP) connection, along with failover/redundancy to a second service to prevent outages.
- Shared bathroom with an electric hot shower.
- Fully fitted kitchen stocked with all the appliances and utensils you'd expect from a modern home kitchen.
- Living room with two comfortable double sofas, TV with FireTV, and a 4-seater table and chairs.
- Sunroom and private, enclosed, south-facing rear garden.
- Double off-street parking on the driveway in front of the house (1 space allocated for you, if you drive).
The house is situated in a quiet cul-de-sac and sees no passing traffic. It is perfectly located for a professional working at Williams F1, the Harwell Campus, or Wantage, with Milton Park being a short and easy commute of less than 30 minutes during rush hour.

About Me:
I'm a very laid-back landlord and I'm looking for the same in a lodger. I’m an IT professional who works from home. I'm always happy to chat or chill out in the evening—watching TV is a frequent pastime, perhaps with a glass of wine after a hard day's work. Equally, I'm just as comfortable if you prefer to remain private and keep to your quarters.
About Pets:
The house is also home to Bisto the Chihuahua. He's a friendly, older gentleman who still loves life and his walks, though he also sleeps a lot. He's not a yappy dog and won't be in your room unless explicitly invited in. Dog lovers are most welcome!
