​Double room in Cowes, a short walk from the town centre. Easy access to shops and the cycle track to Newport. Street parking -- no restrictions, and it's a safe area. It's on the No.1 bus route.

I am looking for one occupant, ideally a part-timer (for less rent), but I would accept the right person full time. I will consider short lets.

This is a no-smoking house. Please note it has steep stairs so is not suitable for anyone with limited mobility.

It's an 1890s 3BR terrace, comfortable and welcoming, slightly boho and 'lived-in'.

Downstairs there is a semi-open plan living room with woodburning stove, a separate dining area, a small but well equipped kitchen, and a bathroom with bath + shower. The bedrooms are upstairs. Outside there is a small garden with a patio and a shed. There is space for a bicycle.

The room has a standard double bed, a chest of drawers, a small desk and chair, shelf space and an alcove for hanging clothes. Bedding provided unless you prefer your own. The back window overlooks more of next door's back garden than mine, with a distant view over the Medina to the hills of East Cowes -- a prime spot for rainbows.

It is the warmest room in the house. It has little exterior wall and a big radiator.

The layout of the house produces a certain amount of daily contact, so the other occupant needs to be someone I get on with reasonably well. This does not mean living in each other's pockets.

I like things quiet. I don't slam doors, play loud music, shout from room to room, have phone calls very early/late or do housekeeping at strange hours. I appreciate the same.

There is wifi but no TV.

I have one longhaired adult cat who is indoor only. Whether she is allowed in the room or not is your choice.

If you think you might be interested, please tell me about yourself and your circumstances.
