Description

Hello!

Sadly, our current flatmate Katie has bought a house and is moving out! So we are looking for someone to join us in our spacious and sunny 3rd floor apartment on Marchmont Road, right by the meadows. We are currently two guys, Sam and Rob (although Rob is often away in Glasgow): Sam is doing a PhD in genetics/mental health, and Rob is a psychologist.

The room is large with double bed, sofa, wardrobe, drawers, desk/sideboard. The flat is nice and quiet, but we also like to chat, eat, and watch films/tv together, and more than happy with friends/family coming over. We're clean/tidy and respectful and all those good things! The kitchen has pretty much everything you need, including a dishwasher.

Currently the rent is £625/person and monthly bills (energy, WIFI) are roughly £60 each, plus council tax (band E) which is £77 each. The deposit is £712.50, which goes into a registered tenancy deposit scheme. Our experience with the agency has been very good and they're responsive in having things fixed/replaced when needed.

A bit about us:

Hi! I'm Sam, I moved here from Manchester two years ago and I'm doing a PhD researching the genetics of mental health. I'm really into climbing, both indoors and outdoors. I enjoy camping with mates and usually go to at least one music festival in summer. I watch/listen to a lot of podcasts, good films and series. Other than that I'm currently trying to learn new juggling tricks! I also drive, so feel free to join me on trips to Aldi!

And I’m Rob! I moved to Edinburgh five or so years ago to retrain as a psychologist and currently working in Glasgow. I’m still shaking off the effects of several years of study and hope to get back into climbing, which had been a huge passion.

If you’re interested, please get in touch with a little about yourself and any questions you have. We want to read all the messages, so it will be a few days before we get back to you, but we will reply to everyone, even if it's only a bulk message to say thanks for your interest. We plan to arrange viewings early October.
