Room in 6-person house – lovely spot in Highbury

We’ve got a spare room going in our house in Highbury and are looking for someone to move from 7 Oct.

The location:
* Arsenal station is 3 mins away, Finsbury Park’s 10, and there’s a bus stop to central 2 mins round the corner
* Highbury & Islington and Drayton Park are also within walking distance
* It’s a quiet, leafy bit of north London that feels like home when you get in at the end of the day
* Loads of parks nearby — Clissold 12 min walk, Finsbury 10 min walk, Gillespie 2 min walk
* And loads of nice local cafés, pubs, and independent shops
* Good gym (literally) next door

(We all agree the area’s one of the best things about living here.)

The house:
* There’s a garden (we use it all year, but summer’s especially good)
* Living room’s not massive but it’s very cosy – good for hanging out or watching TV
* Two bathrooms spread across the three floors
* Big kitchen with two ovens and two hobs (->never feels crowded when cooking)
* Washing room with two washing machines and two dryers

The people:

There are 5 of us currently – all 25–28, working professionals.

Dan’s a chef, Tobi’s an accountant, Adriana works at LSE, Seb’s in corporate governance, and Ioana’s a brand strategy consultant.

It’s a classic “we hang out but do our own thing” vibe – we’re a sociable house but not intense about it. Everyone’s got their own stuff going on, but we cross paths a lot and often end up hanging out (in various formats) – whether that’s watching TV, chatting in the kitchen, or going out for a drink now and then.

The room and the logistics:
* On the ground floor
* Room dimension: 3.38mx3.24m, renovated in February 2025
* Rent is £900pcm incl. council tax
* Bills are roughly £100/month (incl. internet)
* Available 7 October

If you’re interested, drop us a message with a bit about yourself. Any questions, just ask. We’re planning to do viewings by 23 September.
