Modern room in new-build flat, Bromley-by-Bow (E3)

Description

Hey! I’m looking for someone to take over a furnished double room in our modern flat in Bromley-by-Bow. My flatmate and good friend of nearly 3 years is moving out in December (he’s getting engaged, so exciting things ahead for him!), which means I’m looking for someone new from 7 January. If you need to move in a bit earlier, that’s totally fine and we can talk about it, just no later than the 7th.

I’m originally from Germany (half German, half British Caribbean), been in London for about 3.5 years, and I work in financial services in the City. It’s a 9-5 with a mix of office and WFH days. I’m a really clean and tidy person, and I treat the flat as my little sanctuary away from the noise of London. I love having friends over and I’m super chill about you doing the same, it just isn’t a pre-drinks-every-weekend kind of flat. I’m after someone with a similar relaxed vibe: clean, respectful of the shared spaces, with a job and a life of their own, who treats this place as their home too. We got on really well in the flat so far, so I’d love to find someone who clicks the same way.

The room and the flat

Furnished double room with a double bed and wardrobe, plus a desk if you’d like to take it over from my flatmate
Fully equipped shared kitchen, living area and a washing machine
A lovely balcony, especially in summer
3rd floor, with Devons Road DLR and Bromley-by-Bow both about 3 minutes’ walk
About 25 minutes to the City and 15 to Canary Wharf. District and Hammersmith & City from Bromley-by-Bow, and an easy switch at Mile End onto the Central line
Victoria Park and Stratford are close by

You’d be living with just me, and the landlord is genuinely great too. He’ll do the usual referencing and affordability checks, and then the tenancy transfers to you.

I’m hoping to have everything finalised by around 16-17 December. I’m happy to do a quick call first or for you to come by for a viewing directly, and I’m hoping to organise viewings asap. Drop me a message with a bit about yourself, what you do and what you’re looking for, and I’ll get back to you! Looking forward to meeting you.
