Description

Hey there, are you our new person? We have a lovely calm, clean, home of 3 folks in their 30s-40s, now seeking a long-term replacement for one buying his own place with a partner.

THE APARTMENT/ BUILDING
Modern, warm, bright flat on 10th floor, with big jungly balcony and amazing views overlooking Hackney Marshes. Open-plan lounge/ kitchen with breakfast bar, underfloor heating and loads of plants. Communal roof terrace with Olympic and City views. Free gym, secure bike lockup and 24 hour concierge/ parcel service all included. Friendly neighbours with an active fb group.

THE ROOM
Large room with full-width floor-to-ceiling windows (with epic sunsets!) Sturdy bedframe and mattress, built in wardrobe/ storage and bookcase included. (Standing desk optional to buy otherwise it'l be sold). Plenty of space to bring your own desk or other bits of furniture. Ensuite bathroom has a large shower (great water pressure, constant hot), huge mirror and mirrored storage cupboard.

THE FLATMATES
Two creative professionals with varied work patterns and healthy (but fun) lifestyles. Both single LBGTQ+ (not a couple!), met on spareroom and happily flatmate'd for 3 years.
One is a climate tech/ UX designer, early 40s. Plays double bass and dances, spends summers gigging at small festivals and camping. Into science, nature, art, keeping fit, yoga/ meditation, eating well, making stuff. Lively but also needs solo introvert time.
One Scottish opera singer/ music teacher, early 30s. Plays football in a local women’s league, enjoys running and keeping fit. Sociable and chatty, though values home as a calm haven and often works contracts away from home.

YOU!
Must be: early 30s-late 40s, fluent English speaker, friendly, clean, and collaborative - i. e. willing to create genuine connection with housemates to co-live in an equitable and peaceful way. Strong communication skills and comfort with expectation-setting are important. *Tolerant political views are essential*.
Ideally: We prefer a guy/ non-binary person to keep some balance (we both prefer a mixed gender home) but happy to consider women too. Familiar with London already with your own social circle, and looking for a long-term place and people to call home. Interest in environmentally-conscious living. Introverts welcome! (As long as there’s enough communication that we’re all on the same page about home stuff).
Bonus points: Anyone who's musical, occasional gig or climbing buddy, up for doing communal shared meals weekly-ish.
Note, we're explicitly an *LGBTQ-friendly* and *anti-racist* household.
(Unfortunately furry pets are not allowed, and individuals only, no couples)

THE AREA/ TRANSPORT
Hackney Marshes and Wick Woods are our beautiful 'back garden', Victoria Park just a few minutes away. Stroll down the canal 5 mins for the buzz of (rapidly expanding) Hackney Wick, or short bus to Hackney Central. Stratford/ Westfield/ Olympic pool are all 10 mins cycle. Lots of transport options - 10 mins walk to Homerton for Windrush Overground. (I often cycle to Stratford to hop on Central or Jubilee underground line). Bus stop virtually outside for N26 and 236/ 276/ 308/ W15 local busses, or 5 mins walk to 26 & 388 for City & Shoreditch.

DETAILS
Rent includes the heinous service charge (which covers Gym, bike storage and concierge/ parcel service, as well as communal heating/ hot water).
Other bills (primarily council tax, 1GB Hyperoptic wifi) are around £125 per month at the moment. Includes 'family' Netflix account and Amazon Prime for TV.
We use Splitwise app for shared house stuff like washing powder, cleaning products and loo roll etc and try to use eco-friendly product brands.

WHAT NOW?
Well done if you got this far! Drop me a message if this all sounds up your street...
Lifestyle and values-fit is important, so expect an initial video chat or brief viewing to see if it could be a go-er, then a longer hangout/ chat with both of us to make sure we’re all happy it’s the right vibe 😌
