Double room in Leith Walk/Calton Hill area

Myself and my friend Finn are looking for a new flatmate to share our lovely flat.

The flat is found in the Hillside neighbourhood near Elm Row/Leith Walk. I've lived in the flat the last 15 years, with Finn moving in with me in May this year. Our previous flatmate has recently moved back to England. The double room is within our fully furnished three bedroom flat, with a HMO licence, owned by my parents.

We are both 'young' professionals and live active life's, and looking for someone who has similar values in sharing a home. Especially in building a sense of community with each other and sharing tasks (cleaning etc.). We both enjoy our alone time, but it would be nice to share some meals and go out on little adventures together.

Please see below for more 'formal' information on the flat:
