Description

Spacious double room available to rent in our fully furnished 3 bed flat in Newington. We're looking for a new flatmate to move in on 9 October. Ideal for professionals. If a mature student, you'd need to pay council tax.

Rent is £655 per month excluding bills, paid on the 9th of every month.
Deposit is £650.
Bills (Wifi, gas, electricity) tend to cost ~£86 each, council tax ~£95 each.

The flat:
- ground floor flat with own entrance
- modern furnished kitchen with dishwasher
- cosy but spacious living/dining area with TV
- modern bathroom with shower
- box room (we use it for bike storage, general storage, and to hang laundry)
- front garden (gravel)
- large shared garden out back
- large windows
- single glazed but keeps warm enough through winter (~18°C) and mold isn't an issue.

The room:
- spacious double room
- fully furnished (bed, side table, wardrobe, desk + chair available, currently not in the room thus not shown in the pics)
- peaceful atmosphere, perfect for mature postgrads or professionals.

Location perks:
- easy access to city centre
- excellent transport links and easy access to shops, cafes and parks.

About us:
We are two people aged 28 and 37, one a researcher in a think tank and the other a recent masters graduate. We're looking for a flatmate who is a professional, or a mature student willing to pay full council tax.
We are quiet and considerate but also enjoy hosting friends for dinners etc. It's also nice to share the occasional meal as flatmates when we can, and consider the flat as our home. We both have separate social lives outside of the flat doing things with friends, working out, or going to fun events happening around the city, but also enjoy quiet nights in and find the flat a nice space to decompress. We would love to be friends with the person who moves in, if that's something you feel comfortable with!

The flat is lovely (nicely decorated, comfy, and has many plants!) and we like to keep it reasonably clean and tidy, so someone who takes initiative in keeping the place clean is ideal. We currently also split the cost of household needs and shared items as needed using Splitwise.

If you're looking for a nice place to live and like the sound of our flat, please get in touch to book a viewing!
