Lovely double room in 5-bed houseshare, N5

Due to technical issues we are reposting this again, if you replied before please drop us another message.

We have a room available in a large house in the N5 area (Highbury / Stoke Newington) to share with four others in their early to late thirties.

As you can see from the photos, the room and the house are lovely (if a little scruffy in places), importantly, there’s lots of space and it’s good value! If you're interested, please get in contact and tell us a little bit about yourself and what you're looking for.

We're looking for a female housemate aged at least 30 years or older, working professional (so that means no students, really sorry! Also no-one who is looking for work and/or only temporarily living in London) and the room isn't for a couple unfortunately. As much as we like pets too, we are not able to take them.

The room is on the first floor at back of the house facing the garden. It's a good-sized double room with a wooden floor and high ceiling.

The house has a large kitchen with separate sitting room, a newly renovated main bathroom, an additional toilet and (new) shower room and a nice south-facing walled garden with patio.

The location is great - about 30 seconds walk to the gorgeous Clissold Park (with deer and goats), 10 minutes walking distance to Arsenal and Finsbury Park tubes and 20 minutes to Canonbury Overground. Number 4, 19, 341, 141 and other buses leave from the ends of the road including night buses.

Current occupants have lived in the house for around 6 months to 9 years. We are all individual people but are very sociable on the occasions when we're all in the same place at the same time - BBQs in the summer, Sunday roasts in the winter, and movies/tv nights.

Varied jobs include: graphic designer, sound engineer/producer, set designer, and music supervisor. We like: photography, art, cycling, cooking, travel, music, films, festivals, theatre, London adventures and other stuff besides.

House has fast fibre optic wifi, big TV, washing machine, instant hot water, sash windows, wooden floors, high ceilings and faux fireplaces. Decor is a bit dated in places but that’s reflected in the price.

Laidback landlord leaves us alone for the most part and is quick to help solve any problems with the house.

The rent for the room is £540pcm, with a £540 deposit. All bills are split equally - around 100 each per month to include council tax, gas and electricity, water, fibre optic broadband, TV licence.

The room is available from 25th January. The room comes with red wardrobe and red shelves. The new housemate will need to source a bed and mattress, desk etc

Interviews: we're aiming to do viewings either in person or virtually, ASAP. So please remember to tell us about yourself when you email, and include a phone number! We'll do our best to reply to everyone asap (please bear with us whilst we read through all the messages). Thank you!
