🌞 I am ‘currently’ a live-in landlord, (problems get fixed fast), but spend many weekends (and weeks), away in UK and Europe on adventures, mainly climbing, scrambling, hiking, travelling & occasionally skiing.

I am friendly, respectful, mature and rarely seen or heard unless I am batch cooking for freezer, or trips

I do a lot of study/research/work from home during weekdays but am out training (or watching podcasts), most evenings. I am usually away all bank holidays/Xmas and many weekends from March to Oct.

Soon I hope to buy a camper van to simplify my adventure travel and to spend even more weekends away with club memberships. Camper-van rental (with insurance), may also be available to housemates at discount.

So, that's the highlights, but for even more details please read on!

This specific area of LE4 0BE is a sought after family oriented area with a safe and friendly feel. Take a walk around. I call it the Village in the City.

Within 800 - 2000 meters (1.5 miles), we have 3 Climbing walls, 4 Gyms, 3 with swimming pools, Universities, Colleges, 2 main hospitals and a High Cross Cinema de Lux.

The city has a thriving and friendly European style feel with many friendly bars and restaurants expanding and modernising at a brisk pace, especially now the canal side developments are mostly completed.

We are less than 1 mile from River walks and cycling paths along Canal & around Abbey park, Leicester’s largest green space. Two of the 3 hospitals are approx. 1 to 1.5 miles away.

Bradgate country park and ancient forest walks are only 4 miles away.

We have a quick & effective cleaning rot. Everyone knows to clean 'double' sink area reasonably soon after cooking.

It is almost always 'very' clean and tidy here. I also take extra care working from home, to do I do a lot of the awkward and/or extra cleaning jobs.

Upgrade Policy
Subject to length of rental, I can offer upgrade 'options' for new beds/mattresses, painting, entire refits and even ambient lighting upgrades for longer term rentals.

Stop Overs:
It’s fine to invite a partner or friends for dinner and stop overs. Simply give housemates an advance heads up on WhatsApp, if you are planning a romantic dinner or friend to stopover.

Age ideally 25 - 65

You can expect life here to be relaxed, quiet and friendly.
