Double/king room in queer friendly home

Hi! I'm River (she/they) and I'm looking for a housemate to join me in enjoying the home I've created.

It's me and my sweet little cat Teslin in our two bedroom house. The house has a good size lounge, separate diner and kitchen, lean-to style conservatory (aka "the ranchery"), understair reading/meditation nook, bathroom with a great shower (no bath yet sadly!). There is a lovely garden, with lawn, apple and pear trees and patio areas which are great for sunbathing and BBQs in summer and good for fire pits right now through winter. I've got a good size garage and shed where I'd be happy to make space for a bike/surfboard/any other adventure toys.

I work a 9 day fortnight moving to a 4 day week soon and work from home at least 2 days a week. The photos of the room show the current furniture setup to give an idea of how I've been living in the space while doing up the other room. I'm happy to get a similar setup or get in a double bed and desk if that'd suit the right housemate better. Alternatively if you have your own furniture you'd like to bring to the room that's an option for you. Photos of the kitchen will be soon outdated as I'm writing this between coats of paint on the cabinets! As I love building and making there will be ongoing DIY projects but the main bits are done so these shouldn't be disruptive.

I'm looking to bring in someone from the LGBTQA+ community to share this space of rest and creativity. Ideally you'd be happy to share in activities like joining with friends to go on adventures or to gigs but also happy to have space to do your own thing. I'm a sociable independent person so similar would be a good match. It'd be nice to share meals occasionally but with no expectations. I'm not veggie/vegan so please be sure you're happy to share with a carnivore. Someone who's happy to help with keeping it a tidy and clean home is important to me. It's not a fully sober household but soberish so wouldn't suit daily drinkers or weekly wild ones.

Flexible move in date as prioritising a good fit housemate. Early Feb would be ideal on my side.

Happy to answer any questions ☺️
