Beautiful double bedroom in dreamy house!

Hello!

My name is Alice and I am very excited to be sharing my beautiful home with you...

About Me:
I am an artist, and am training to be a healing practitioner, and I am looking for a new housemate for this room. I also have another room which is currently available, so I am technically looking for two new housemates. It would be great to welcome people who are likeminded, who share similar interests. I also have a 3-year-old cat called Bravo, who I rescued from Battersea, who is an angel, so cat lovers are welcome!

The House:
The house is very calm and is not a party house. It is perfect for a professional who wants to have their own space, but equally enjoys a friendly and supportive environment, and to spend time with one another when it suits. It is built for lots of wonderful memories and nurture. It is a true safe-haven and it has the most welcoming, cosy environment possible.

It is a three bedroom 19th century terraced cottage located in a conservation area. The houses here were originally cottages built for the railway workers back in the 1800s. Also, living in Westminster means that we benefit from a really clean and respected residential area. You feel very taken care of, and I feel so lucky to live here. It is very quiet yet so near everything, especially considering we are only zone 2. It feels very safe here and we have lovely neighbours too who are always looking out for us.

The house is located in the best area possible. It is right in between Kensal Rise and Queens Park, and is only a short walk from Notting Hill. The area has everything you need, including a Gail's Bakery, Planet Organic and an M&S, as well as Queens Park itself, which is lovely to pop to for some fresh air and a wander (it also has mini golf and a great little cafe).

Portobello Road, Golborne Road and lots of other wonderful places are right on our doorstep. Also, we are a 10 min walk from Sainsbury’s Ladbroke Grove, which is essentially the size of an airport, so you are sorted.

Transport is a dream. We are around 10 mins walk to Queens Park on the Bakerloo line and the overground. Also equidistant is Kensal Rise on the overground, or we are near Westbourne Park, which is great for the Circle and Hammersmith and City line. There are a plethora of buses nearby too, so getting around is very easy.

Your bedroom!:
Your bedroom is one of my favourite rooms in the house as it is the only room with carpet, and has its own floor and stairway. It is completely private and secluded, keeps so warm throughout the year, and also features lots of storage space. It comes fully furnished with a double bed, two lamps and chest of drawers, and has incredible light from two skylights.
The shared bathroom is so lovely; it has vintage tiled floors, a roll top bath and a separate eco rain shower (not pictured). As you can see we also have an old-school toilet and radiators too, which work a treat, and outside the bathroom we have a vintage overhead drying rack that we pull down with a rope above the stairs to hang washing on - a personal favourite!

We also have a big sofa bed in the living room, and the house is completely open plan downstairs, with terracotta tiled floors, underfloor heating, a built in fireplace for winter, and plenty of shelving for storage. The kitchen is old farmhouse style, with a big Welsh dresser and a farmhouse table. We have a big oven, which is heaven, a washer dryer, and a dishwasher too.

The kitchen looks out onto the garden, which makes this house so special. It features a huge fig tree and grape vines (we have eaten from both), and there is ample space to sunbathe in summer, or even do a spot of gardening if it takes your fancy. It looks pretty bare in the photo, but overflows with green in spring / summer.

If you have a car then parking is all on street, you would need to get a permit but it works out to be less than £10 per month. We also have lovely cleaners who come once a fortnight (included in rent).


I hope that gives you the information you need. Please do message me asking any questions and I look forward to meeting you soon.
