Description
About the flat setup:
Hello! My brother has just bought a lovely 2 bed garden flat in Cotham. I am living in one room, and he is looking to rent out the other. I have spent the past month decorating and furnishing the flat so it is ready to move in straight away! I have said 3 months minimum to see if we enjoy living together then we can just do a rolling one month contract or adjust to whatever works best after that. Bills are not included and seem to be around £65 a month each (I have only lived here one month so not 100% sure yet how much gas/electric will ultimately be).
About the flat:
The flat is the garden floor flat with its own front door access. It is 15 minutes (or less) walk to the Arches and Gloucester Road, the BRI, University of Bristol, the BBC and Whiteladies road and about 20 minutes to the city centre. The living room is lovely and big with a nice bay window a big L-shaped sofa, dining table, TV, bookcases, board games, a switch and houseplants! There is a big window connecting the living room and kitchen giving it a very open plan feel while still being separate. The kitchen has gas hobs, oven, dishwasher and washing machine and I also have an air fryer slow cooker, nutri-bullet and plenty of plates and glasses etc that you are more than welcome to use. The bathroom has a bath and electric shower. There is a nice sized garden with a secure shed and a picnic bench (looking forward to some summer BBQs). In the rest of the house are 3 other flats all with lovely young professional couples. If you need parking I think we can get a parking permit for on street parking.
About the room:
The room is a smallish double room with two windows so plenty of natural light. It is currently furnished but if you want to bring your own furniture instead that is fine too. It has a brand-new double bed, bedside table, double wardrobe and chest of drawers (it could also fit a thin bookcase if you wanted it). There is additional storage under the bed, in a cupboard in the hallway and on the bookcases in the living room. I think that will be plenty of storage but if you need more there is loads of empty space in the hall at the minute and I'd be happy to get another wardrobe or more drawers for in the hall.
About me:
I am a 23 year old PhD student. I moved to Bristol around 3 months ago and most of my time has been spent finding and decorating the house! So I'm excited to explore more of Bristol and the surrounding areas. My PhD is 4 years long so I will be living here for at least another 3.5 years. I work from the office most days either 8-4 or 9-5 but can be flexible. In evenings after work I usually like to cook and unwind watching TV/reading but sometimes will go the gym or socialise with friends instead. At the weekends I like going out for drinks, for food and to the pub and I really want to enjoy more of the live music in Bristol. I do also enjoy more chilled things like going for walks and playing board games too.
What I want from a flatmate:
I want someone that wants to enjoy living together and using the communal spaces not just living in their room and coexisting with me. My previous flatmates and I used to share the cooking and eat together most evenings which I really enjoyed. I do also appreciate having some personal space and alone time and would respect that for my flatmate. I don't want someone that is WFH everyday as I don't want high electricity/heating bills. I also want someone reasonably tidy (I'm not very anal about things but don't want the flat to be gross). Ultimately I just want someone to enjoy living at home with.
Sorry if this was very long (well done for reaching the end), but please let me know a bit about you if you think this would be your kind of vibe
