Top Floor River View Flat with Cat

I rent from a private landlord & my current flatmate is leaving in late November. I’ve lived in this two bedroom flat with my 14yr old cat for a couple of years and I’m looking for a friendly person to share this cozy space with.

🛏️ The Flat 🏘️ : The room measures approx 2m60x3m60 with a built-in closet and river view, and can come furnished (double bed and 2 chests of drawers), unfurnished, or any level in between that suits you.

The flat is on the 4th floor of a 1930s apartment block (no lift) with a good sized living room and views over the Thames. The kitchen is not huge, nor is the fridge, so ideally I’d be looking for someone who’s happy to share resources when it comes to food, but happy to negotiate this in whatever way is most comfortable to you!

The contract is all handled directly between myself and the landlord, who is a good one. Rent is 1650pcm split evenly (825pp), and bills come to around 135pcm for council tax (band C), gas & electric, water, and internet.

🚂 Transport & Local Area 🏙️ : We’re about 15-20mins walk to Crossharbour (DLR) and Canary Wharf (Jubilee), or 1mins walk from a bus stop. No permanent parking spot, but visitor parking permits are available.

The closest shops are Asda (15mins walk), Waitrose (20mins), and Lidl (30mins), but there’s approximately one billion Tesco Expresses on the Isle of Dogs too, and a local corner shop 1min away for emergency milk or eggs.

😎 Flatmates 🐱 : I’m Leo, 28yo, they/them. I’m doing a part-time MA in Linguistics at Queen Mary, and work part-time in a coffee shop alongside this. I enjoy cooking and baking, charity shop bargains, I’m a big film watcher, and I organise and attend life drawing classes. I’m pretty chilled and it would be great to share with someone who’s happy to share dinner and/or watch a movie together if we’re both home in the evening and fancy it.

Asherah (14yo, she/her) is an inherited cat who is a bit of an idiot and loves a warm lap. As she’s a little indoor cat, she gets the run of the house, so you’d have to be comfortable with her coming into your room during the day. She’s a highly loveable flatmate!
