Double Room in Spacious Marchmont Flatshare

We're looking for a friendly, responsible professional to join our flatshare right in between Marchmont and Bruntsfield starting from 7th November. The flat has five bedrooms, two full bathrooms, a large living room featuring a lovely window seat view of the city, one guest room, two offices that also serve as moderate storage space, and a laundry room.

The available room is furnished with a double bed, desk, armchair, and built-in storage and features a view of the castle (plus its fireworks/LED drone shows at certain times of year)! The monthly rent is £535 and includes bills (wifi, gas, electric, and Council Tax, along with shared essentials like certain cooking/baking ingredients, toilet roll, and kitchen roll). The rate is based on our average energy consumption, so in colder months, we may need to pay the difference for a higher energy bill, which we work out and contribute to equally. The deposit is £300, and rent would be pro-rated for November, since the move-in date is the 7th instead of the 1st.

Three of us are longer-term residents of the flat, one woman and two men in our 20s and 30s, and one room is being subleased by a student, mid-20s, until the end of the year. We’re sociable and get along well while also respecting each other’s space, enjoy having occasional house dinners and watching films together, and we keep up with a twice-monthly chore chart and tidy up after ourselves. One flatmate's partner has a very sweet, small dog who is a fairly regular visitor, so this set-up probably wouldn't suit someone who's allergic to dogs.

If you're interested in scheduling a viewing, please tell us a bit about yourself, including your profession/area of study, interests, personality, and how you are as a flatmate!
