1 spacious double room, Honor Oak, private garden

£850 (without bills). Move in from September. One year minimum contract. Deposit and reference required. Fully furnished (unfortunately no space for other furniture).

Hi all, I’m Charlie. I’m 27 and from Leicester but have been living in London for 5 years now. I live in one of the rooms of this three-bedroom flat, and another is taken by a friend of mine, Cal. We are looking to rent out the third bedroom to someone like us.

We are looking for someone who is respectful but up for a laugh and the occasional drink. Unfortunately no students – sorry – as we want to keep the place clean and tidy and ultimately it’s not a party house. We have a bi-weekly cleaner.

About Cal and I: we’re both easy-going and sociable. We love sports and fitness, but equally love socialising with friends and going to pubs and bars. Our work is important to us, so we are looking for a respectful person.

In terms of location, I work in Bank and the commute takes me 40 minutes. The flat is connected to the overground via Forest Hill or Honor Oak (equidistant). The national rail into London Bridge is also possible and takes just ten minutes. Forest Hill and Honor Oak are both lovely, very suited to young professionals. Lots of nice coffee shops, independent restaurants and shops, and pubs and bars. Not far from Dulwich Park either.

I take care of the bills – WiFi, council tax, water, electricity, gas, cleaner, TV license – but require a monthly payment to cover your third. The bills come to approximately £130 pp/pm (cheaper in the summer).

Let me know if you want any further details and I’ll look forward to hearing from you! X
