Double room in two-bed Highgate flat

Hello!

I (Adam) am looking for someone to live with me in my lovely two-bed flat in Highgate. You’d be replacing Matt, who adores the place but moving in with his partner.

The living room is spacious and benefits from plenty of natural light. There’s a well-sized kitchen, airing cupboard with separate washer & dryer, and a shared bathroom. The flat is well maintained, and we have put a homely stamp on it.

The available bedroom is spacious with three built-in cupboards, and comes with a bed frame, mattress and chest of drawers. Its big, south-facing window enjoys great sunrises. The room comes with an en-suite bathroom - which Matt uses for storage, but you can do as you please, of course.

Rent + bills comes to around £1150 which includes Wifi, Sky Sports, BT Sports, Netflix & Prime. It also includes water, gas, electricity, TV license, and council tax (band D). When essentials are needed (milk, washing tablets, etc), we split it between us.

We are the first floor flat on a pretty street, a short walk from charming Highgate Village and literally right next to Highgate station (Northern line). The neighbours above and below are quiet, friendly and happy to collect our post. We are blessed with green space, with Highgate Wood 5 minutes away on foot, and Hampstead Heath 15.

The flat would would suit someone in the late 20s-early 30s who enjoys sports, socialising and general north London life - including its myriad excellent pubs - but at the same time values downtime and a peaceful, looked-after home. I’ve loved every second of the several years I’ve been here.

Matt plans to move out at the end of September so we’re keen to find a new tenant in the next 2-3 weeks.

They must be able to provide references and pass background checks.

We use the zero deposit scheme.

Our US-based landlord, a friendly and responsive chap called Russell, is keen for the property to remain lived in by respectful tenants. I plan to be here for at least a couple years more, and ideally Matt's replacement sees the flat as a home for the foreseeable.

Male preferred but if you're a female and the flat sounds right for you, please do enquire.

I’m a journalist, 32, from Cumbria who enjoys live music, sport (watching and playing), a Hampstead Heath walk / swim, and a local pint.

We plan viewings ASAP! Get in touch.
