Description
I have a large furnished double bedroom available in my spacious flat (over 1000sq feet) in Birkbeck between Crystal Palace and Beckenham.
The flat is split level so it feels more like a house. My bedroom is on the 3rd floor and the lodger room is on the 2nd floor overlooking the neighbouring gardens (Garden belongs to downstairs, no access from my flat)
I have a bathroom upstairs so the downstairs bathroom will belong to the lodger. (I may just request to use the bath very occasionally as I have no bath upstairs but I mainly shower. It will be fully cleaned after use)
The lodger room comes furnished with a double bed, large wardrobe, 2x large mirrors (including full length), chest of drawers, desk and chair.
The kitchen includes kettle, toaster, oven, washing machine, dishwasher, microwave.
The broadband works well.
Travel links to the flat are excellent with multiple options:
Birkbeck station (1min walk) : Trains to London Bridge and Beckenham
Also a tram to Beckenham and Croydon/Wimbledon
Elmers End Station (10min walk): Trains to London Bridge
Anerley Station (17min walk): London Overground trains to Canada Water
Kent House Station (15min walk) :
Trains to London Victoria
Walkable to Beckenham and Crystal Palace Triangle (also short bus ride available-bus stop outside flat)
Great local shops:
Co- op (3min walk)
Aldi (7min walk)
Tesco Superstore (10min walk)
Sainsbury's (20min walk)
I am a 37year old female. I teach music and drama in schools (2 afternoons a week) I teach the odd 1-1 lesson from home but these are minimal 1-3hrs a week and will always let you know in advance when this happening (usually Wednesday afternoon and one hour Sunday afternoon)
I am sociable, friendly and tidy. I would expect for my flat to be kept tidy and for some help to be given with keeping things clean and organised within reason. I have a cleaner fortnightly and they can include the lodger room and bathroom if you'd like to chip in a little (approx £5)
I am open to having someone I could hang out with from time to time and definitely don't want animosity. I love a chat, and am friendly but I do also need a fair amount of private space and like my home to be somewhere I can have alot of quiet downtime. No party animals please! No WFH more than 2days a week.
In my spare time I do pilates, and like walking, parks and a good coffee in a coffee shop.
LGBTQ Friendly
Non-smokers only
No couples.
Cats only will be considered as pets (no outside access so only suitable for house cats).
Electricity and gas are charged on exact usage per month as I have smart metres.
Short term lets preferred at this time - but could consider 6 months with possibility of extending for right person. Also will consider Mon-Fri lets and will be happy to discuss price for that.
Trial period applicable in all cases.
Please do let me know if you have any questions. Look forward to hearing from you!
