Small double room in large Wanstead house

About the house:

The house is a huge, four bed, three floor property situated on a quiet, residential street in Wanstead. The ground floor includes a lovely open plan kitchen (including a kitchen island and dining room table) and living room area. No need to bring your own kitchen appliances if you don’t have any, as it comes fully stocked with everything you need. The ground floor also has a utility room which comes with a washing machine and a communal bathroom.

The second floor includes three bedrooms and another communal bathroom. The top floor is an attic room that comes with a private bathroom. The back garden is one of the major selling points of the house. The decking area includes an outside table where you can enjoy dinner/lunch in the summer months. The garden area at the back is big and great for relaxing in during the summer months.

About the room on offer:

The room on offer is small but well decorated room. Bed is included along with built in cupboards so space for clothes and storage. The room gets a lot of natural light. Bathroom is located on the same floor and is shared with two other people.

About the housemates:

The group of people living in the household have been in the property for six+ years, with various members of their friendship group residing here during that time. Everyone in the household is super friendly and respectful of each other's personal space. That being said, this is also a very sociable household. During the week, there is a mixture of people wfh and working from the office, with those wfh using the living and dining room areas throughout the day. The living and kitchen area are good for working from home as it is quiet and gets a lot of natural light. Occasionally, we’ll cook together during the week on special occasions such as birthdays. On the weekends, people are either out and enjoying the nightlife or staying in and chilling. Weekends in the house are normally quiet.

If you don't already know, Wanstead has a lot of green space around that is great if you love going for walks and running. The house is 1 mile away from both Wanstead and Leytonstone stations (central line). I normally walk this, but a few minutes on the bus can take you to and from each station, and buses are frequent.

Cost is £650 pm + bills, which makes this a great value for the right person. Deposit is actually £810 but spareroom won't let me put this.
