Large double room available in shared house

*Note: Please call for quickest response :) *

A large room is becoming available from November 1st in this house-share of young professionals (Rooms 2, see floorplan). The incoming tenant will join the current joint contract which runs from September 1st 2026 to August 31st 2027.

The other tenants are 5 girls aged 20-30. Hobbies include art, photography, sea-swimming, etc. We would like to find one more young student (ideally) of a similar age to complete the house.

The ideal housemates would be sociable, considerate of their actions and cleanliness within the house, good communicators, respectful to the needs of other housemates, and fun to live with :) If that sounds like you, keep reading....

The Location:
-30 seconds to bus stop for Penryn Campus
-2 minutes to beautiful Kimberly Park
-5 minutes to the Falmouth town centre
-8 minutes walk to Woodlane Campus

The House:
The house went through a full renovation in 2018 that saw it entirely gutted before being modernised, insulated, decorated, and furnished throughout to a high standard. The house was largely re-painted internally in early 2025, with a new roof and external refresh undertaken in 2026. The house was recently inspected and the council gave very positive feedback. All HMO, gas, electric, and fire certification is up to date. Key features:
-6 bedrooms
-large lounge/diner
-fully equipped kitchen
-under-stairs laundry room with Bosch washer + dryer
-2 showers
-2 WC's
-Gas boiler and central heating system still under guarantee
-Double glazed throughout, warm and quiet
-Keycode room locks = never lose your room key
-60cm loft insulation
-Blackout blinds in all bedrooms
-Interconnected fire alarm system
-2 private parking spaces at rear
-Enclosed rear courtyard with bike racks
-Superfast fibre broadband

Room 2 is a large double room 2.90m x 3.55m, complete with double bed (with brand new mattress), bedside cabinet, wardrobe, desk, chair, and chest of drawers. The room was freshly painted last year. Monthly rent and deposit are both £655.

All bills and council tax (band C) are included in rent, except tv license.

Contract:
The house operates on a joint tenancy agreement which is renewed each year on 1st September, with changes in rent and bills based on the CPIH inflation rate and actual energy usage. The incoming tenants will sign a joint contract to run from their moving-in date to the end of August, when the contract is updated and renewed if necessary. This system seems to work well and many tenants have chosen to stay in the house for multiple years, or have even returned after living elsewhere. The contract and tenancy aims to follow all the requirements of the new Renter's Rights Bill now in effect.

Landlord (me!):
I came to Famouth as a postgraduate student and have worked as a researcher at the university. I also have experience in building renovation and construction work. I have been a landlord for 12+ years so hopefully I have some knowledge of what makes a good rental experience. I am a member of the Cornwall Responsible Landlord Scheme and National Residential Landlord Association. This house was recently inspected and the council gave very positive feedback. I live less than 5 minutes from the property and can be contacted by phone/email/whatsapp at most times. I like to deal with problems quickly and really push for open and efficient communication between tenants and myself.

If you are interested in the room, please contact me on the phone number provided :)

Many thanks!
