Double Room in lovely house by Highbury, Islington

We are Simon, Adam, and Maria. Our current flatmate Jess is unfortunately moving out soon so we are looking for a new like-minded and social flatmate to join us in our peaceful, gated home in Highbury🙂

It's the perfect balance of a quiet residential area with amazing transport links and great local shops (including big supermarkets on Holloway Road and indie cafés towards Highbury & Angel).

🗺️ The Location:
• Very well connected: 2 min walk to Drayton Park (Great Northern), 9 mins to Arsenal (Piccadilly) & 12 mins to Highbury & Islington (Victoria & Overground)
• Quiet, gated off street: We’re tucked away in a private road in a residential area so it's typically very quiet and peaceful

🏠 The Room & House:
• The room sits at the rear of the house (room 4 on the plan), offering plenty of built-in storage and room for a WFH desk.
• 4 bedrooms, 2 bathrooms, a spacious kitchen/living area with gas hobs, dishwasher, and a separate utility room (washing machine + dryer).
• There’s also rear patio space, plus off-street parking if you need it.
• Fast 500mb fibre internet
• Bonus: The neighbour’s cat, Merlin, pops in sometimes to say hello.

🙋‍♂️🙋‍♂️🙋‍♀️ About us:

We’re three friendly professionals who enjoy sports, cooking, gaming and exploring London’s food scene. We are all laid back, tidy, and strike a good balance socialising together and doing our own thing. We aim for a homely vibe, not just a place to live with strangers.

Simon is a Software Engineer and enjoys bouldering, swimming, racquet sports, cooking, F1, gaming and exploring new restaurants. He is hybrid working with time split between WFH and in the office.

Adam is a 3D Artist in the video game industry. His hobbies include cinema, listening to most music genres, food (he's actively striving to be a better cook!), and, of course, gaming. He works remotely.

Maria is a smart buildings engineer and a member of the British fencing team. In her free time she likes to explore different parts of London, frequent local coffee shops, read, and go out with friends. She usually works from home 1-2 days per week.

🙋‍♀️ What we're looking for:

We’d love another female professional to keep the balance. Ideally someone who’ll enjoy a friendly, laid-back atmosphere - happy to socialize yet also comfortable doing their own thing.

⭐ Key details:

• Available from around 17th February (flexible start date)
• Council tax band F, all bills together come to approx £120/month
