Lovely, light room in 2-bedroom flat, Abbeyhill

Please read before applying!

Hello! I'm Sasha and I'm looking for someone to replace my lovely flatmate who is moving out.

Location
The flat is located on the edge of the city centre - around 15 minutes walk to the east end of Princes Street and 5 minutes to Holyrood Park/Lochend Park. There are plenty of supermarkets nearby with a big Sainsbury's at the Meadowbank Centre 5 minutes away - a Lidl is being added there soon too. There are lots of nice little cafes in the area as well.

Costs:
The rent is £510 per month not including bills. Bills come to around £136 per month - a rough breakdown below:
- Council tax band B: £1541 per year (split between 2 = around £63)
- Gas & electricity with Octopus: around £118 per month (split between 2 = £59 each)
- Internet: £28 per month (£14 each)

The room:
The room is furnished and has a great view of Arthur's Seat. There's a wardrobe, a chest of drawers and a small bedside table. The current arrangement is a little different than in the pictures, but can be moved around again.

Me:
I'm originally from Shetland but have been living in Edinburgh for the last 3 years. I love going for walks around the city and trying out different cafes.

I like a bit of a balance between spending time cooking/eating/watching TV/Netflix with flatmates and spending time alone. I also like to keep communal spaces clean and tidy.

Look forward to hearing from you and please feel free to ask any questions you might have!

A few more practical details:
- The flat is privately rented directly with the landlord who is really great and quick to fix things when needed.
- The deposit is £510 each (£1020 total) and this would be paid just before you move in. The landlord will deposit this in a ‘My deposit Scotland’ account (this is required by law).
- Rent is paid in advance, so you would pay the deposit and your first month’s rent on the day your tenancy starts.
- The landlord pays for the stairs to be cleaned once a fortnight, and TV license
- All the required safety checks have been conducted (the landlord will show you evidence of this on meeting)
- The landlord reference number is 396313/230/03081
