The room contains a double bed, side table a wardrobe and additional clothes storage (hanging and folded). Other than cupboard space for kitchen equipment, there is no additional storage outside of the bedroom available to the lodger. The room is available from 27th January 2026.

The flat is in a central zone 3 location with brilliant transport links into the City - Pontoon Dock DLR station is a short 3 minute walk away from which you can reach Canary Wharf in 13 minutes and London Bridge in 22 minutes. We are also a 5 minute bus drive/ 15 min walk to Custom House Elizabeth line station. The calm and peaceful flat is in a friendly residential area, has a large bright balcony, well kept communal gardens, concierge parcel service (included in rent) and a 24hr door security team. The bedroom has views over Thames Barrier Park which is a 2 minute walk away and has a lovely walking path along the river and beautiful landscaped gardens.

Stratford station/international and Westfield shopping centre is 15mins away on the DLR. The lodger will have access to the double room, kitchen area and balcony (not the living area) and a shared bathroom. Please take the time to consider if this arrangement will work for you before expressing interest.

The flat would suit someone who doesn’t work from home every day.

The flat is thoughtfully furnished and homely. I also have a cat who keeps herself to herself but can be nervous, so the room would suit someone with experience of living with a cat, though this is not essential. I keep the cat’s litter tray outside of the flat on the balcony - so don’t worry, no bad smells! I’ll of course take care of anything relating to her care/cleaning.

This flat is well suited to a lodger who is friendly but independent and happy to occupy themselves.

It is very important that the lodger is respectful, hygienic and able to keep the space clean. This means looking after personal areas too. I clean the shared areas weekly (this consists of cleaning the bathroom, kitchen and hallway). I still expect the lodger to clean up after themselves day to day to keep the space comfortable for us both.

I do a monthly/fortnightly shared cleaning products shop which typically includes: bathroom cleaner, antibacterial wipes, handwash, bleach, loo roll, kitchen cleaner, kitchen towel and dishwasher stuff. This usually costs around £15 each per month.

Bills are £100 pcm and paid together with the rent payment.

The flat is a no shoes household.

This flat is not suitable for smokers or those who take drugs of any kind. Guests should be invited to your room only and no overnight guests.

This ad is for a lodger for an initial period of 6 months and then a monthly rolling contract thereafter.

I will conduct references through a third party organisation and require proof of employment. Students welcome but rent must be paid in advance if not in employment.

A deposit of 5 weeks rent (including bills) will be required (£1038) A holding fee of £210 is required to secure the room, which will be deducted from the deposit.
