Description

Hi there! 👋

We’re a friendly, easy-going professional couple looking for a like-minded tenant to rent a double room in our house.

About the Room
• Spacious and quiet double room.
• Storage space in built-in wardrobes and Ottoman bed.
• Garden views.

About the Property
Our property is very spacious and has many period features including hardwood flooring, high ceilings, original fireplaces, and sash windows. The house also has modern comforts which include a new washing machine, tumble-dryer, and dishwasher.

Other features include:
• Your own bathroom.
• Access to a 2nd living room.
• Large kitchen and dining area.
• Large garden and vegetable patch.
• Private off-street parking available.
• Cellar available for storage.
• Fortnightly cleaner.
• All Bills (utilities, council tax, internet) included.

Location Details
• Property located within a Conservation Area.
• Very close to the town centre and station.

More About Us!
We (James and Alice) work full-time in professional roles. We’re both busy and independent people who enjoy spending time together. We value downtime and enjoy being sociable with others. Our weekends are usually a mix of exercise (we’re both runners), cooking (mostly vegetarian food), watching the latest TV drama, gardening, or seeing friends and family.

Whilst we’d be live-in landlords, we’re looking for a relaxed and friendly vibe.

Alice enjoys cooking good food, yoga, fashion, and the occasional glass of white wine. James enjoys long walks, history, comedy, and old pubs. We’re also both part of a board games friendship group and would always welcome a new recruit.

What We’re Looking For
We’re looking for a friendly tenant that works full-time (ideally office-based), enjoys being sociable from time-to-time, and values a calm home.

This is not a HMO or a crowded flat share, we are offering a large amount of space in a family home. For that reason, the house would best suit someone who enjoys living in a friendly home rather than just a room.

Here’s a few pointers about who we’re ideally looking for:
• Independent, mature, sociable professional.
• Someone clean and tidy (you clean up after yourself) and is respectful of shared spaces.
• Values a calm and peaceful home.
• No pets (unfortunately, Alice is allergic to fur).

Viewings
If this sounds like your kind of home, we’d love to hear from you. Please kindly drop us a message telling us about bit about yourself – what you do, what you’re like to live with, and what you’re looking for in a house-share!

NB: I am away until Tuesday 10th March. I will have irregular access to SpareRoom but will respond on my return to arrange viewings.

We are both available to host viewings from Saturday 14th March onwards (including weekday evenings the following week). Unfortunately, viewings are not possible before then.
