Double room available in Hackney

Sadly my flatmate Matt is moving out at the end of October, so his double room is now free in our cosy Homerton house.

We’re about a five-minute walk from Chatsworth Road, which has loads of nice shops, cafés and restaurants, plus an independent cinema that does £6 tickets on Mondays. On Sundays there’s the Chatsworth Road Market with great food, produce and vintage bits, which really brings the area to life. There are also some lovely pubs nearby – the Adam & Eve is a favourite – and the canal and Hackney Marshes are right on the doorstep, perfect for running, walks or just unwinding. Homerton Overground is about a 15-minute walk, and the 242 bus goes from just around the corner straight into the City at Aldgate.

The house is also a stones throw away from the adjacent canal, so if you like being beside water+nature and enjoy walking and cycling, it’s perfect, with routes to Clapton, Stratford, and Vicky Park.

The room is a good-sized double and will come with a bed and wardrobe , but with enough room to fit all the other usual bits.

The house itself has a large open-plan kitchen/dining area that leads out into the garden, where we’ve had plenty of summer meals. There’s also a decent sized living room for relaxing with Netflix or Prime, and a sofa bed.

We’ve got two bathrooms (one with a walk-in shower, the other with a bath/shower) and some extra storage which always comes in handy.

Bills come to around £100 a month, covering council tax, internet, gas, electricity and water.

You’d be living with me – David (38) + Annabel (37). I’’m originally from Ireland and Annabel is an Aussie. We both work in the City and are looking to find a housemate who is easy-going, considerate and sociable.

If you’re interested, drop me a message with a little bit about yourself and when you’d be free to come and see the place. The room is available from November 1st.
