Description

Hello! I'm looking for a housemate for a short term let of 3-4 months from the end of October.

About the room

Furnished large double room with bay windows and period fireplace available in a ground floor Victorian maisonette.

Room is furnished with a double bed, large chest of drawers, wardrobe, bedside table and built-in shelves in the alcove. The windows are fitted with wooden shutters. There is additional storage space under the bed and there is some limited storage cupboards in shared areas.

The kitchen has all the things you need (fridge/freezer, washing machine, oven/hob, microwave, kettle, toaster). I had a new kitchen fitted a couple of years ago so appliances, units, sink, taps and worktop are all fairly new.

Bills are not included in the price. I currently pay around £300 a month (so £150 each) for gas, electric, water, council tax (Band B), broadband, Netflix and TV licence. Bills may go up slightly in winter months, depending how much you use the heating.

About the area

It's a great location, situated on a quiet residential road, set back from the main road (Barking Road) where you'll find shops etc (few minutes' walk away). Canning Town has undergone major regeneration lately and now there are lots more coffee shops, bars and restaurants, especially near the tube station and on City Island.

Nearest transport links
Canning Town, about 15 minute walk (although I've been told I walk quickly)- Jubilee Line and DLR.

Custom House - 15 minute walk - DLR and amazing new Elizabeth line with super fast links to West London, as well as Liverpool St, Soho, Farringdon and Paddington (among others).

Plaistow - 20 minutes' walk - Hammersmith & City/District line. Lots of buses nearby to Stratford and very handy for Canary Wharf/City too.

About the let

I'm looking for someone friendly and responsible for a short term let of around four months (possibly longer).

I don't eat meat, but I do eat fish and dairy sometimes. Vegetarians, vegans or pescetarians preferred. Looking for someone friendly and sociable, also clean, tidy, respectful. No parties and no guests to stay without checking asking first.

Please contact me for further information or if you'd like to take a look around. I can be fairly flexible in terms of viewings but please arrange with me in advance.

Thanks!

Claire
