I am looking for a lovely likeminded human to share my space.

The house is a quirky older property with lots of character. The room is a fairly large double and will come furnished with a double bed, triple wardrobe and the option of a little futon sofa. You would also have access to shared spaces including the kitchen, bathroom, living room & garden.

Based on a little track up the hill part way between Sowerby Bridge and Sowerby village there is private off-road parking, a bus route a few mins away and it is around a 20 min stroll (5 min drive) down to the train station and local amenities of the town. **This house is up a hill out of town so if you don't drive please bear this in mind.

A bit about me: I am Ali (she/her). I moved to Sowerby Bridge a few years ago craving more countryside after living in cities for years. I have a lot of hobbies including crafts, yoga, meditation, music, reading, hiking, wild swimming, camping, generally being outdoors.

I do work from home most of the time but do this from a small office which is closed away from the shared spaces. My partner lives in Leeds and I spend some time there. He spends time at the house with me some weekends along with his doggo.

I've worked really hard to make my house super cosy and colourful and it is very much my creative, safe space to relax. I enjoy the odd dinner/evening in with friends but my party nights are few and far between/very much slowing down and my house reflects this. I am looking for someone with similar interests who may be up for hanging out occasionally but mainly who can live their own life in harmony alongside me living mine.

Sowerby Bridge is a great location for commuters and there are trains both to Leeds/Manchester fairly regularly.

There is a beautiful garden which overlooks the fields/valley. It is very much a work in progress, but there is ample space to sit on the grass/decking and relax around a fire or just take in the views. I am trying to grow some flowers and veg in my spare time, and I'd welcome anyone wanting to grow things too!

I don't smoke but my partner does. Smoking is only permitted outside or in the outer porch.

If it sounds like we might get along or if you have any questions, please drop me a message and I'd be happy to meet up for a brew.

Ideally looking for short term initially until it's clear we get on, but for the right person I'd be open to longer term.
