Double Room For Short Let, E17

I am offering a comfortable double room in my cosy little house in Walthamstow, North-East London. The room measures about 8sqm and has a nice view over garden, allotments and reservoir beyond. It contains a washbasin with cold running water, double bed, desk and office chair as well as a clothes rail and good storage space. I will be away abroad for 3 weeks from 23 Feb, back home for 2-3 weeks then away again for up to 2 months, so am offering the room as SHORT LET of 1-3 months, with the possibility of extending this if needed, and if things are working out well.
I have a loft space which I use as a bed space and to store some things, plus a small room I use as my study/spare room.
Whilst I'm away you will have almost the whole house to yourself. This includes your room plus all of the downstairs area comprising of good-sized lounge, kitchen/dining room and shower room/toilet, plus the garden of course for drying your laundry and/or enjoying the sunshine on the decking. For this reason I need somebody I can trust to take care/keep an eye on things when I'm away.
My interests include music, travel, birding/natural history, spirituality, yoga and meditation. I am currently developing a new business as a tour guide for birdwatching in the South of France, hence why I'll be spending time away. I also have a part time job in the visitor center of the popular nearby Walthamstow Wetlands nature reserve. I speak fluent French, get by in Spanish and speak a little Portuguese too.
I am looking for a friendly, mature, NON SMOKING professional person (or student). Ideally you will share some of my interests, but that's not essential!
There are 2 others lodgers living at this address; both are quiet, friendly, and entirely independent, one in a cabin at the end of the garden, the other in a self-contained room on the 1st floor. Both have use of the washing machine once a week.
*IMPORTANT* You must like/love cats as I have 2 delightful little sisters, and will need you to feed them whilst I'm away...full instructions given of course!

Transport links for the house are good, with regular buses (or 12 min walk) to Victoria line zone 3 (including night tube at weekends) or St James St overground (15 mins to Liverpool St).
There is parking on the street, but we will need to buy you a permit from the local council (not sure how much this will be but let me know if this is of interest). This is a nice area for walks/bike rides in nearby Lea Valley Park and the Walthamstow Wetlands nature reserve.
The rent is £750pcm inclusive of all bills. The house has a smart TV, excellent Wifi and fast broadband.
*Room is available from 22nd Feb and I would like 2 references (work/college/past landlord) plus £400 deposit and one month's rent up front.
*As you’ll be sharing the house with 1, sometimes 2 others, and because it’s a smallish house, I'm looking for someone respectful of that and the room is therefore not suitable for anyone wishing to make a lot of noise.
*SORRY, NO OTHER PETS*
*I am also happy to consider Monday-Friday lets, for which the rent would be around £600 pcm (to be discussed).
*If you think you might be a good fit for this house or have any question then feel free to get in touch and please tell me a bit about yourself when replying.
Thanks for reading ;o)
