Description

Hello. I have a furnished, double room available to let in my calm and cosy 2 bed house on a quiet road, on the edge of Victoria Park in BS3. It would suit someone who likes home to be a calm and restful place and who doesn't work full time from home (hybrid is fine though!).

The bedroom is currently furnished with a double bed, desk, chair and shelving as in the photos and, as my last housemate commented, the room is actually more spacious than it might seem. The room looks out over the garden and is very quiet. There is currently no wardrobe, just a hanging rail but I can get a wardrobe if that's better.

The house
There's a kitchen with all the usuals (including a washing machine), lovely bathroom with bath, shower and lots of light. There's a garden out the back which will be in bloom come the summer and if you're green-fingered and want to get involved you'd be very welcome. There's also space for a bike if you have one. One thing to note is that there isn't very much storage space in the house generally so if you have a lot of stuff, this might not be the right place....

Location
Victoria Park is a sprawling bit of green filled with trees. It's a really friendly, safe area, just a 15 min walk from Temple Meads station, 23 min walk from Whapping Wharf and the harbourside and 30 mins from Cabot Circus. Just up the hill to the east you're in Totterdown, over the park is East and North St - filled with bars and eateries etc.

About me
You'll be sharing the rest of the house with me, Kate, and the cat 'Bear'. My current work is as a web developer and I work hybrid, so a few days a week from home. Not so long ago I was a music teacher so playing music is one of the things I like to do (if you like playing music maybe we could jam sometimes!). My other interests are cooking good food (i am vegetarian but you don't need to be), swimming, dancing, sewing/crafting, gardening and seeing friends (I'll have friends round sometimes for dinner and of course you can do that too). I'd also like whoever lives here to feel like it is their home and space too and I would like it if we could share meals sometimes if one or other of us is cooking, perhaps watch the odd film together and just generally have friendly vibes. I like to keep things fairly clean and tidy and would like a housemate of a similar mindset.

And to give you an idea about the cat: he is 13 years old and is very good natured and friendly. He loves strokes and cuddles and likes to generally be near people and would ideally be sat on someones lap most of the time, so if you enjoy cat time it could be a win win!

Monthly breakdown
On top of the rent of £500, the included bills are council tax (band B), water rates, broadband (all 3 of which are fixed and currently comes to £120 per person). The energy bill is the only other expense and usage varies month by month. Once i get the bill through we can just split that between us but to give you an idea it is usually between £60 and £100 (so we'd each pay half that). So all in, it'll be around £650 in summer months and maybe more like £670 the winter months.

Any questions please feel free to ask.
