Double Room - Aldgate – Contract Takeover

I’m looking for someone to take over my place in the tenancy for a modern 2-bed, 2-bath flat in the Dryden Building, Aldgate Triangle. Available immediately.

Originally I was offering the room short-term here, but after speaking with the rental agent it’s clear the best route is for someone to replace me on the tenancy agreement. The contract runs until 18 May 2026, so the assumption is that it continues to that date.

The Apartment & Room

Bright 2-bedroom, 2-bath flat on the 6th floor (with lift)

Spacious living room with sofa, dining table, and large windows

Fully equipped modern kitchen (dishwasher, washer/dryer, fridge/freezer, oven, hob, microwave)

Your room: furnished with new bed & mattress, large double wardrobe, bedside table, plus your own desk & chair in the living room

Exclusive use of the main bathroom (flatmate has the ensuite)

Amenities

1Gb Hyperoptic broadband (fast and reliable)

Access to on-site gym, 24-hour concierge, and communal roof terrace

Secure development in a central Zone 1 location

Location

Excellent transport links: Aldgate East, Aldgate, Whitechapel & Liverpool Street stations all nearby

Close to Spitalfields Market, Brick Lane, Tower of London, and plenty of bars, cafés, and restaurants

Bills

Broadband: ~£22.50/month
Council tax: ~£74/month
Electricity: ~£60–70/month
Bills split evenly between you and the other tenant

Flatmate
You’d be sharing with Tim (34), a Greek structural engineer. He’s easy-going, sociable, into the gym and music (especially techno), and makes the most of London weekends. A great flatmate — both independent and good company.

Tenancy Details

Rent: £1,137.50/month + bills (your share of the tenancy)
Contract end date: 18 May 2026
6-month break clause from 18 September 2025, allowing either side to give 2 months’ notice
Security deposit: £1,312.50 (your share, replacing mine)

No parking available, no strict house rules

Available by appointment with my flatmate Tim, from Tuesday the 26th Aug.
