Room in queer household - great location!

We have a double room going in Peckham in our lovely 2 bedroom flat.

ACCESSIBILITY
One flight of stairs to access the flat, and additional 5 steps to get to the room and the living room. No lift and no intercom.

THE ROOM
Spacious double room with a window looking onto the neighbours’ lovely garden.
High ceiling and a large radiator that will keep you warm in winter.
The current tenant bought a double bed+mattress, a bedside table and 2 wardrobes less than a year ago and if you want the whole lot he’d sell it for £200.
If you want none of the furniture or only some bits it can be arranged.
If you need a desk there is space for it.

WHO WE ARE LOOKING FOR
We’d love a friendly and mindful flatmate in their 30s or 40s, someone who is respectful and knows how to take care of the home. Ideally someone who doesn't work from home more than 1-2 days a week.
We are both lefties and want to live with someone whose views align with ours. So yes to trans rights, yes to a free Palestine!

THE FLATMATES
We are a queer couple. Abel (he/him, transmasc) is 32, from Brasil, and in the last few months of his phd, working in research and university teaching. He is the main plant acquirer of the house (but we share the care). You’ll often find him at his desk, which is on the landing just outside our bedroom. He enjoys his quiet time but also little chats and communal meals. He has been in London for 4 years. Susanna (she/her, cis woman) is 37, from Italy and works in a college. She has more books than she can read, loves walking around the neighbourhood and some light DIY. She has been in London for 15 years.
We love this flat and since we moved in a year ago we really made an effort to make it homely and take good care of it.
We all take turns in weekly house chores and are mindful of noise, each other’s spaces and needs.

THE FLAT
It’s on the 1st floor of a terraced house.
We have a spacious, fully equipped kitchen (including a dishwasher and a breakfast table), bathroom (with bathtub) and separate toilet as you walk in. Then up 5 steps there is the room and a gloriously sunny living room.
Here there is a sofa, dining table and chairs.
Our bedroom is on the top floor.
We find it to be a really good flat to spend time together but also to each have time on our own. We have lots of plants that we seem to be keeping alive pretty well.
Downstairs, on the ground floor, we have the loveliest neighbours with whom we have established a very good relationship and we help each other with parcels, keys etc.
We are renting directly from the landlady, so no unhinged agencies. She is fairly responsive if there are any issues.
Please note that this is quite an old property and it comes with lots of charm but also quirks like slightly uneven floors here and there.

THE LOCATION
It’s a great location on a quiet street, in between Peckham/East Dulwich/Nunhead. We are a short walk away from green spaces, plenty of shops (including Lidl!) and pubs, cafes and bars. If you are a cinema goer, Peckhamplex is right around the corner and there’s always lots of community and cultural things to take part in.
Our local leisure centre (with gym and pool) is 5 minutes walk away.

Peckham Rye Station - 12 mins walk
East Dulwich Station - 11 mins walk
Peckham Rye Park & Common - 9 mins walk
Lidl - 15 mins walk
Rye Lane and Lordship Lane both 10 mins walk away (plenty of shops and other supermarkets on both)
