Expressions of Interest/Buddy-up in NR2

Hello,

I’m looking for a clean, tidy, and considerate professional housemate to share a gorgeous 2-up/2-down house in the popular NR2 area, which I’ve been happily renting on a house share with one other housemate for the past year. Please read through, and if it feels like a good fit, I’d love to hear from you so I can pass on your details to my letting agent to consider.

My preference is for a female sharer a little older (ideally mid-30s and above), who appreciates a calm, relaxed home life rather than lots of dating, parties, or heavy drinking. This house is very much a warm and welcoming 1-2-1 set-up, and I value both companionship and personal space. I enjoy a good chat, laughter, and occasionally sharing a meal or film in the evening.

There is fantastic landlady here and a very responsive agent (all the standard agency checks, deposit and contract will apply). All the furniture is mine, and I was given permission to redecorate throughout, so it really feels fresh and feels like home. The bedroom that will become available is 11 foot square with a small inbuilt wardrobe/cupboard and a period fireplace and it is shown here with the good-quality king-sized bed that my departing housemate is happy to pass on if needed. Rent is c. £600 tbc and bills are not included.

I am really well accustomed to sharing with just one other person; it has worked really well throughout large periods of my life. But, to be totally upfront: I am neurodivergent, which means I do best with a peaceful environment. I’m not suited to lots of noise, frequent gatherings, or regular overnight guests so am looking for a single person who also lives quietly and cleanly. The neighbourhood is quiet and friendly and we have a lovely street with neighbours who sometimes meet up to do a local pub quiz and who always help one another out with odd tasks and favours.

A little about me: I’m a former University of London lecturer now practising as a spirit worker and healer. Very occasionally I may host a client in the house, though most of my work is online.
