AVAILABLE NOW: Looking for someone to join me in a partly furnished 2 bed 1 bath duplex flat in Hackney. Rent is £1200 pcm excluding bills (utilities, wifi and council tax [band C]). You will have to go through referencing (income and credit check) to be added to the lease.
About the flat:
The property is located on the second floor of an ex-council estate (there's a lift) just 5 mins walk from Hackney Downs. The flat has a bright kitchen with gas hob, a separate living room upstairs, and a bathroom with a tub and separate toilet. The place has a ton of built-in storage, laminate flooring and lots of natural light throughout. It's located just 6 mins by foot from Hackney Downs station (Weaver Line) and 10 mins from Hackney Central (Mildmay Line), with several bus connections just steps from our front door. I have a cat, so one friendly cat could work but no other pets.
*Please note*: since the bathroom and toilet are up a flight of 15 steps, this flat may not be suitable for those with limited mobility*
About the room:
The room is HUGE (18 sq m) and is located on the lower floor of the flat next to the kitchen. There are massive windows overlooking a quiet common. The room comes with a wardrobe and two dressers (I also have an extra double mattress with no frame if needed). The room is otherwise unfurnished and ready for you to bring your own personal flair!
About your flatmate:
I'm a 30 year old trans masc Congolese-American who moved to London from Brooklyn last year. A foodie to my core, I love to cook and chat about food history and culture. A true ambivert, I love a good chat over tea and drinks but am also respectful of the need for quiet time and will ask for the same. I'm quite creative and artistic with a passion for singing, dancing, music, and crafts. I love a good movie night and laid back gathering, but this is *not* a party flat. I'm also fairly witchy and have a Taurus stellium (iykyk), so harmony, cosiness, and comfort are my top priority in the home. I am trained in conflict resolution and de-escalation, and get along best with people who are open to navigating friction in an honest and generative way.
About you:
Ideally you're also 30ish+, queer, and/or a person of colour, but I'm open to whiever brings a good energy. You should be tidy, a clear communicator, and willing to contribute to a warm and welcoming home environment. This is a proudly queer leftist home so ABSOLUTELY NO TERFS/SWERFS/ZI0S!
To make sure you made it this far, please include your favourite kind of dessert or pastry when replying to this ad :) talk soon!
