2 Double Rooms in Stylish and Cosy Household

Looking for chilled and kind-hearted housemates to fill two bright double-rooms in our home in leafy East Chesterton.

Located at the end of a quiet road a few minutes walk to the river and the green (Stourbridge Common). 5 mins cycle to Cambridge North Station and the Science Park. The City Center is about 20 mins by bike along the idillic river path.

The house:

The house has a very calm and welcoming atmosphere. The living room/ kitchen/ dining room space is open-plan and has an overhead projector with a large screen for TV and movies. We also have a record player and an abundant selection of board games for those classy evenings full of good food and conversation. There's a cleaning rota and everyone is expected to do their bit to keep shared areas clean and tidy.

We have secure garage for cycles, 2 toilets, a laundry room, and study / spare bedroom available for guests. Also, a bbq area in the garden, veg beds, and even a summer fire pit.

There are currently 2 other housemates – a children's book illustrator and a tree surgeon/ gardener. We generally have a mix of nationalities and those who stay usually have a keen interest in travel and other cultures.

The rooms:

Room 1 (675pm): Large, west-facing double room with walk-in wardrobe, storage space, sink and desk. Happy to add other furniture if needed.

Room 2 (575pm): Slightly smaller, east-facing double room with plenty of wardrobe space, desk, sink and additional storage. Again, other furniture can be arranged.

Who we're looking for:

Both rooms are open to all ages and genders. Must be kind, friendly and fit in with the feeling of the house. We are very open to both long and short term stays, but again – what's important is that you're trustworthy and respectful.

We're not a party/ student house but we do like to do regular shared meals and movie nights. If you're an artistic or well-travelled soul you may fit in better, but home-loving scientists are equally very welcome and appreciated!

Price includes all bills (including council tax). Room viewings will be in the next few weeks and we'd be looking for you to move in ASAP after the viewing.

A final thing is that for health and environmental reasons, we are a no-chemical-fragrance household: Eco-friendly laundry liquids are provided free of charge for use in the washing machines, etc. This hopefully shouldn't be a big deal but if you're the kind of person who likes to wear a lot of hardcore chemical perfume/ aftershave, this might not be the house for you.

Give me a shout if you're interested in either of the rooms (or both?) and I'll book you in for a viewing or even jump on a zoom for a chat.

Cheers!
Philip
