Single Room in owners house

I am looking for someone to rent the spare room in my home. It is a sunny, south facing room.

Available from the beginning of August.

The room is furnished. Shared kitchen, bathroom, sitting room, and garden. The garden wraps around three sides of the house and has a clothesline in one part. There is WiFi: PlusNet broadband Unlimited Fibre, 36mb.

Council Tax and Utility bills are included in the rent.

I work in the arts so have no regular hours. I don't smoke so only non smokers should apply. I don't eat meat; but I am not squeamish if some meat comes into the house.

The TV in the sitting room is a rather old 32” Blaupunkt HD and I don’t have subscriptions to Netflix etc. I love gardening, watching TV detective programmes, and listening to Radio 4. Occasionally I will also play and rehearse music, but there would be plenty of warning about any of that.

Kitchen has Washer/Dryer, microwave, 5 ring hob and Fan assisted oven.

There is a washing line in the garden.

I am in The Strand area (near the river). Gillingham train station is just under a mile from the house - Google says it takes 21 mins to walk it, but I manage it in 15. There is a car park at the station if you prefer to drive. Sadly, no bus will take you within any reasonable distance of the station, but there are two buses that go to Chatham from near the house. One goes via Gillingham and the hospital, and the other via Dockside Outlet centre.

There is on street parking here, but it isn't always possible to park near the house.

I am 1.5 miles from Medway Maritime Hospital, walkable in around 30mins, or there is the bus mentioned above that stops near the house and takes you right into the hospital grounds.
The Medway campuses of the Universities of Greenwich and Kent are also nearby. The other bus goes to some of those campuses.

If you are into swimming; I am 5mins walk from The Strand Lido. Or if you prefer Wild Swimming, the river is the same distance.

“Sovra was the perfect host for my long stay. The room is spacious, comfortable and charming, the amenities all perfectly serviceable, and the local transport links sufficiently adequate, and therefore excellent value for money overall. I would highly recommend for anyone working in the area.”
