Looking for a place in London FROM October 2026

🌟 Hi, I’m Jéssica! 🌟

I’m a female in my early 30s, originally from Portugal, and I’m looking for a double room in London from October.

I’ve been living in the UK for the past 10 years, mostly in Cambridge, and I’m now looking to make the move to London. I work full-time while also studying for a full-time Industrial PhD, so I don’t pay council tax.

I’m looking for a spacious double room, as I have a chest of drawers, a desk, a few other bits of furniture (including a big TV!), and quite a lot of clothes! Ideally, the room would have a built-in wardrobe and enough space for my desk. If there happened to be room for a desk in a quiet corner of the living room or a study room, that would be a bonus, but it’s not essential.

I’m hoping to find a modern, clean home shared with no more than two other people, preferably around my age. Cleanliness is really important to me - I always tidy up after myself and like to keep my living space spotless. As I work from home a few days a week, I’d love a home that feels calm, clean, and comfortable to work in. An ensuite (ideally), though I can be flexible for the right place.

Location-wise, I’m looking for somewhere with good transport links, ideally within around 30 minutes of King’s Cross. I’m open to different areas of London, but I’d prefer somewhere that’s well connected, as I’ve found some parts of SW London don’t suit my commute.

I occasionally have a family member or friend come to visit, so it would be lovely to find a welcoming household that’s happy with the occasional guest.

If you think your place could be a good fit, I’d love to hear from you!

👋 A bit about me:
I’m sociable and easygoing, and I love getting to know my housemates but I also really value and respect personal space. At home, I tend to keep things calm and relaxed, though I’m always up for a coffee after work, a pub trip, a run, or a cosy movie night. I’d love to live somewhere where everyone’s comfortable with each other and able to communicate (in my experience so far so good! 😊 )

I work from home occasionally, so a house that’s moderately quiet during the day would suit me well.

🧘‍♀️ What I’m into:

- Stretching
- Creative writing
- Skateboarding (I try...Ok, I tried like 5 times)
- Yoga (I’ve technically only done it once, but everyone mentions it in their ads so I’ll keep it here too 😄)

🏡 What I’m looking for:

- A room in a friendly, respectful household
- An ensuite (ideally), though I can be flexible for the right place

If you think I’d be a good fit for your home, feel free to message me, I’d love to chat! ✨
