Bright & quiet room, own bathroom, off Leith Walk

A double room with its own bathroom is available from December (start date flexible). It's in a 2-bed, 2-bath flat in a quiet new development just off McDonald Road.

The flat
- Bright room with large French double-glazed windows and quiet, open views
- Your own bathroom with a bath
- Built-in wardrobe
- Nice kitchen with a dishwasher and washer-dryer
- Living room with a large sofa that fits a single mattress, so it works as a guest bed, plus a dining table with four chairs
- 3rd floor with a lift
- Dedicated parking space
- Secure bike storage
- Gas central heating and an EPC rating of C (80), so energy bills stay low (up to 60£ per person/month in winter)

The room comes unfurnished, but I'm happy to sell my king-size bed, bookshelf, desk and chest of drawers for a bargain price. This is completely optional.

Your flatmate
You'd be sharing with a third-year PhD student in acoustics and audio. He's friendly and easy-going. It's not a party flat, but occasional guests are of course welcome.

Rent and terms
- £700/month at present. It may rise slightly with the change of tenancy.
- Long-term let only.
- No smoking or pets inside the flat, and we share the cleaning of common areas (about once a month each).
- Students and professionals are both welcome. A student is preferred, because then the flat is exempt from council tax. For a professional, the council tax band is E, with a 25% single-person discount when living with a student.
- You'll need to pass the agency's standard referencing and credit checks. You'll also need either an income (a PhD stipend is fine) or a guarantor.

If you're interested, send a message with a bit about yourself and possible start dates, and we'll arrange a viewing.
