This is a shared home environment. Everyone is expected to be sociable and contribute towards making a relaxed happy household.

Bedroom 1 & 2 have a shared toilet and sink next to their rooms. Both rooms have double beds and a sunny, south facing aspects. I have an additional Loft Bedroom for visiting guests and family.

No couples or pets please. (I do have a 1 year old Cocker Spaniel puppy. He's crated at night and very friendly, loving and lively!).

Lodgers have use of a shared bathroom with shower and bath. Landlord has his own Bathroom.

Included is access to shared areas of Kitchen, Breakfast Room and Conservatory. The kitchen is modern, open plan with a breakfast room table for meals. All usual utilities available - washing machine, microwave, air fryer and large fridge and freezer. Access to garden and Conservatory area via Kitchen. Some bike storage available.

Quick Summary:

a) Rents are fixed to 31st December 2026.

b) This is a quiet, home environment. It is not a House of Multiple Occupancy (HMO). Lodgers rooms are bedrooms and not bedsits. Lodgers are Licensees not Tenants.

c) Lodgers are expected to keep their rooms clean and tidy. Bedrooms have small sliding bolt locks for privacy and I have recently replaced the carpets for new. Everyone helps to keep our shared household areas clean. Very light duty! :-)

d) Landlord has 7 years years experience of male and female lodgers previously. Male applicants may apply. Sadly have had problems with some male lodgers in the past, particularly regarding cleanliness respect of the house. Why female applicants are preferred.

e) About the Landlord. Working life spent in aerospace, defence, and in the space industry. Keen yachtsman. Has two adult daughters who occasionally visit. Landlord is sometimes away travelling or sailing.

f) Having a SpareRoom profile and picture does help!

Looking forward to hearing from you. Please message via SpareRoom or with phone number. Will respond within 12 hours. Thanks for reading my property description.

Kind Regards, Stuart
