Mon-Fri, 1 Ensuite Serviced Room, Kennington

We have one ensuite bedroom available in our lovely four storey home near to The Oval in Kennington. We are looking for a considerate mature person who needs a room away from home during the week (Monday to Friday or Sunday to Thursday), maybe as an alternative to a hotel or because you prefer the convenience of a serviced room where belongings can be left at weekends.

Our comfortable house has plenty of space including a double drawing room and a large well-equipped kitchen/dining room which extends into a garden room with sofas. There is also a utility room and outside we have a south facing garden with plenty of seating for the summer. We are on a wide leafy road and the back of our garden adjoins the grounds of a landmark church and on the other side our house overlooks the grounds of the vicarage. There is a great community spirit with our neighbours, all mature and considerate.

The area has convenient shops nearby and excellent transport links. The Oval tube station is a seven-minute walk away and is only four tube stops to Charing Cross, so a great location if working in The City, Westminster or Whitehall. We are 100 yds from a main bus route, with multiple buses all going via Vauxhall where you can pick up the Victoria line.

The bedroom is newly refurbished with a very comfortable Vi-Spring bed. Egyptian cotton bed linen and towels are supplied and changed weekly by our wonderful housekeeper (who is also happy to do ironing of shirts – this can be arranged directly with her.)

The house is occupied by us and our lodgers (two senior civil servants).

We will provide all breakfast basics such as tea, coffee, sugar, bread, cereals, milk etc. The rent including all bills is £1050/month per room and the room is available from 22 November.
