Description

Bright, spacious double room overlooking a quiet courtyard next to the British Museum. It’s a top-floor flat, so there’s no noise from above.

This is not a party flat. If you like peace and quiet, this is the place. Most of my neighbours are elderly, and I make a conscious effort to minimise noise so as not to disturb them.

The double bedroom, kitchen and bathroom are all away from street noise.

Council Tax and broadband are included.
Gas and electricity are shared according to usage.

The room includes:

* Desk
* Fridge and kettle
* Blackout curtains

Just 5 minutes from Holborn and Tottenham Court Road stations, and close to UCL, LSE, KCL, SOAS, Birkbeck, Great Ormond Street Hospital and UCLH.

I’m a friendly author — well travelled (55 countries), very quiet and clean — looking for someone who values a peaceful home, interesting conversation and considerate shared living.

I have a love-hate relationship with technology. I used to work at Bloomberg and I’m currently learning Runway to make short-form videos to promote my new book. But I’ve also used a Nokia basic phone since 2019, and I prefer technology to be a tool rather than something that occupies every waking moment.

As AI is set to reshape our lives in ways we can’t yet imagine, I’m increasingly interested in self-sufficiency and living more off-grid — growing food, survival skills and foraging.

I’m vegetarian 🌱, but you don’t have to be.

Short stays of 2–3 months are welcome, and I’m flexible about the move-in date.

A longer-term stay may also be negotiable at a slightly preferential rate for the right person.

As this is also my home, I’d really appreciate a short introduction about yourself — particularly your hobbies and interests, intended length of stay and preferred move-in date.

If the advert is live, the room is still available.

Hope to hear from you soon.

Thanks,
Tony
