Double Room in Haggerston Warehouse E8

We have a room available in our converted factory/warehouse @ £910pcm (ex council tax & bills/approx £100pcm). Available on the 13th December.

It’s a fabulous, loft style room with high ceilings and a mezzanine bed (which gives you the benefit of all the available floor space beneath). It’s an ‘L’ shaped room with a permanently fixed desk space & shelves under the mezzanine. It can come with a mattress if you need one & there’s also a chesterfield chair & a dressing table available, or unfurnished if you prefer (furniture in the pics belongs to our outgoing flatmate).

This is one of the last truly spectacular old style warehouse shares left in Haggerston, it’s part of a group of spaces inhabited by an eclectic mix of people; you won't find many others like this in zone 2.
There are five bedrooms surrounding a communal area that is a colossal 1200 sq ft, featuring some characterful antiques and vintage collectables. There’s a huge overhead skylight, which gives plenty of natural daylight, ideal for our giant house plants!
We even have a pulpit! (Great for sermons, political manifestos or just generally preaching to the converted). The main space is also occasionally hired out for photographic shoots & filming, please bear this in mind as it could be an inconvenience to you if your not the flexible type.

There’s a washing machine/tumble dryer, the kitchen is wallpapered with a collage of pinups whilst the bathroom has an antique French roll-top bath.
There is gas central heating, and for particularly chilly evenings a wood-burning stove.

The warehouses are a community and it is essential that any prospective flatmate has an appreciation and respect for the space. This includes a sense of responsibility and proactive approach to keeping things running smoothly. Not averse to a spot of cleaning, changing lightbulbs, emptying bins etc.

Although obviously it's a great space for a knees-up, this is not a party house and we don't bring the entire pub back home. We like a peaceful, homely vibe.

You would be sharing with 5 others plus an elusive fluffy black cat. There are currently 3 girls and 2 guys with an average age of 35. We work in/as, freelance fashion creative/lecturer, freelance researcher/psychotherapist, graphic designer/photographer, blockchain architect.
We don't have a tv in the living room; (although we do sometimes set up a projector for film nights) we much prefer the endangered pastime of conversation and can have a healthy debate on pretty much any topic - nothing is taboo.
We occasionally like to cook for each other, healthy (ish!) food is definitely encouraged.

Interests include drag racing (seriously, actual drag racing! Not RuPaul - but stilettos are also popular in the house), philosophy, tiki, vintage vehicles, art, sewing/making things, cooking, pickling, vintage outfits, fashion, music and cheese.


And sorry but we cannot accommodate another bicycle! & unfortunately no cats or dogs, small pets in cages are ok.
