Description
Hi,
We're taking viewings for an easy-going and friendly person to move into a lovely single room in a homely, comfortable, very spacious and friendly flatshare.
The room is available from Saturday 10th January 2026 for currently for 6 months. However, there may be the possibility of an extension. We will also consider shorter lets than this.
The room is available from Saturday 10th January 2026.
The Space
--------------
This flat is a lived-in, characterful home rather than a freshly styled show-flat. Many of the original details have been deliberately kept to project a sense of warmth that comes from a space that’s been genuinely used and cared for over time.
If you’re someone who appreciates authenticity, texture, and a home that feels human rather than curated, I think you’ll see the appeal straight away.
The flat rewards a creative eye — it’s calm, comfortable, and has a quietly welcoming atmosphere that photos don’t always fully capture.
The Room and Area
--------------
The room has stripped floorboards, and the flat has lots of storage space, a large eat-in kitchen and a large lounge.
Balham Underground (Zone 3) and Overground Station is a 7 minute walk from the flat. Clapham South (Zone 2) underground is a 10 minute walk.
Suitability
--------------
The room would suit an easy-going and friendly person in their late 20s - late 30s who is sociable, but respects others' space.
You should also be the kind of person who likes to live in a clean environment and happy to clean up after yourself in the kitchen / bathroom etc.
The Rent
--------------
The rent is £800 per calendar month, including all bills.
We also have a cleaner who comes in and cleans all the communal areas every two weeks. Her fees are also included in the bills.
Included in the rent is council tax, internet access and all household cleaning products such as washing powder etc.
The Area
--------------
If you don't know Balham, it is has been voted by The Sunday Times as one of the best places to live in London!
This is probably because it is a very safe and nice area and a very desirable area of London. Balham has a village feeling and has a warm and friendly vibe is just 20 minutes from Central London.
The Flat and Facilities
-----------------------
The flat is spacious, light and comfortable. There is is a very large lounge, eat-in kitchen, lots of storage space plus all the usual eg. washing machine, shower, broadband internet access etc.
Transport and The Location
--------------------------
The flat is exceptionally well located and it is about a 10 minute walk to Clapham South Tube station (Zone 2) and about
a 5 minute walk to Balham underground (Northern Line - Zone 3) / British Rail overland (15 mins to Victoria).
It comprises the upper two floors of a Victorian house and is on one of Balham's most desirable streets on the Zone 2/3 border.
It is also less than a 5 minute walk from the N155 night bus route from central London.
The flat is secure and is just a two minute walk from Balham High Road, so is good for someone who wants to feel safe walking home late at night from work/pub etc.
Contact for Viewing
------------------------------
It will be a real help if you can either complete your own Spareroom profile or tell us a bit about yourself eg your employment, your interests etc.
Thanks!
Chris
