6 Month Sublet - Double Room in Bethnal Green

We are looking for a subletter to sublet a spacious double bedroom in our cosy and bright Bethnal Green flat from 8th January 2027 to the 8th of June 2027.

My partner and I have lived here since summer 2025 - I am heading off travelling for 6 months, but we'd love to keep our flat for when I’m back as the location is the PERFECT place to take advantage of all that the big smoke has to offer. Hence the sublet.

The location is unbelievable - less than 5 mins to Bethnal Green underground and only a little more to the overground, and <15 mins to Whitechapel with all the connections that gives. There's a Santander bike station right outside. We have banging pubs, bars eateries and anything we need on the doorstep. Not to mention that the gorgeous Victoria park is just a short walk away. The estate itself is really quiet considering how close it is to the hustle and bustle, as it's set back from the main road and there's no throughroad. The neighbours are nice and apart from the omnipresent threat of bike thieves (like everywhere else in London!) we've had no issues at all. I lived in another estate in the area before and can't say the same for that one so it's a real selling point

The rent on the whole flat is £1900pcm, so we are looking for half of this, £950, for your room, bills not included.

Bills are generally cheap - £27 for fibre broadband, ~£50 electricity, ~£30 gas, ~£50 water, and we'd split these 50/50 each month. As you wouldn't be registered on the council tax, we will eat this cost, saving you £59.50. The flat stays warm throughout winter as the windows are pretty new and it’s well insulated. We have space on the balcony to dry clothes and there's no mould issues.

The landlord has been responsive to the 2 minor issues we've had since being here, and the place is generally in good condition.

You get a double room with excellent mattress and plenty of storage space. One of the sets of drawers pictured can go if you want room for a desk. We have a good sized living room with some shelves, further storage and a comfy sofa. Bathroom and toilet are separated handily. Kitchen size is the flats weakest point but it does the job and we have managed to cook some delicious meals! We have lots of kitchen gear so if you're here temporarily you can pack light, or I can empty it out so you get your share of the space if you have your own stuff.

My partner who you will be living with is a doctor so is out quite a lot of the time between work and other bits. He enjoys pubs / cinema / nice meals / clubbing and it would be cool to hang out. He is from Glasgow but has been in London since 2020 so if you're new he can help you get your bearings. Equally if you just want a room and to say hi in the hallway that's fine. He has lived in many shared flats so knows deal.

He will work roughly 2 weeks worth of night shifts in 4 blocks during the 6 months and would need someone who can be considerate of noise in the flat during the day for these periods, obviously with advance notice.

Likewise he will accommodate around your needs schedule wise

We'll consider anyone who's interested. The room would probably be ideal for a late 20s and upwards professional in London for a short while or between places who needs a calm and comfortable flat for 6 months. June is a hard limit as I will be back, so please don't message if this doesn't fit your needs
