- SE11 Area info
Description
Double room with desk in a modern block. Would be great for a professional working in the city or Westminster. Views of Parliament from your room and the balcony off the living room.
Most of the furniture is included, but the bookshelves belong to my current flatmate - she's happy to sell them on if you want to keep them there.
Private bathroom (I've got an ensuite, so you have sole use of the "shared" bathroom) with a shower over a bath.
Modern kitchen, with a dishwasher and a washing machine/dryer. Plenty of storage, a decent sized fridge/freezer, a good cooker and oven, and a microwave.
Super high speed Internet with Hyperoptic built into the building. We're currently getting 500mbps but it can be up to a gigabit if we want to upgrade.
4th floor, with a lift, with a key fob for entry into the building. The block has a concierge in a separate building who's available 8am to 7pm for general maintenance and receiving parcels. The flat is also on a heat network so we get free hot water (which includes heating) - we only pay for electricity.
My flatmate and I have been sharing for the past 5 years, and in this flat for the past 2. She is moving out to live abroad and I'd absolutely love to hang on to it if I can! I really enjoy living here, it's super convenient for everything, in a super vibrant area, but the flat is lovely retreat from it all. We might be able to negotiate the rent share to make it work for the right flatmate.
The entire flat will be professionally cleaned before you move in.
-=Local Area=-
Big Tesco within 10 minutes walk, and a Tesco Express under a minute from the front door.
Bunch of good pubs at Kennington Cross, walking distance from the Southbank, and super quick to get into Clapham or Brixton.
-=Travel Links=-
Super close (~5 mins) to Kennington station (Zone 1+2 Northern line, both branches)
Close (~10 mins) to Lambeth North (Zone 1 Bakerloo line) and Vauxhall (Zone 1+2 Victoria line, trains, buses)
A bunch of buses run up and down Kennington Road
Walking distance (~25 mins) to Westminster or Waterloo
Great bike lanes around the area.
-=Referencing=-
Subject to referencing with our current agency, they say it takes a few weeks. We'd just be swapping out the flatmate who's leaving on the contract, so as soon as we can get referencing done we're sorted.
-=About me=-
I'm a software engineer, and I work from home 3 days of the week. I'm generally pretty quiet, but I'm a big fan of board and roleplaying games, so I run a D&D game in the flat on a Wednesday (which you're welcome to join if that's your bag). You'd also be welcome to borrow whatever games you want!
I'm at the theatre a lot, weekly if I am able, and I love watching films at the cinema.
My girlfriend lives in Belgium so I'm there for a week a month on average, and she's here for a similar time.
I'm keen to share with someone I enjoy sharing a space with, so shoot me a message and tell me a little about yourself, and we'll see if we're a good fit.
