Double bedroom with en suite in 2 bed

I’m looking for a professional or mature student lodger to share my 2-bedroom house with me and my friendly dog, so liking dogs is a must! If you work from home even better! The room is spacious with an en suite bathroom featuring a shower over the bath.

There is also a downstairs toilet, spacious lounge, kitchen has a built in fridge and shared washing machine. Garden is small but pleasant and has a clothes line for hanging washing out.

The house isn’t huge, so we’ll be sharing communal spaces quite closely.
Someone easygoing who enjoys a bit of company now and then — whether that’s cooking, walking the dog together, or just hanging out casually.

A bit about me:
I’ve been living in York for a year now and am about to start a degree at Askham Bryan college. So I'll be out of the house all day every day. I love travelling (I’ve visited over 30 countries), hiking, wild swimming, reading, gardening, photography, and movies.
Also go to pure gym round the corner from me. I love weights! Feel free to come along

Expectations:
I’m looking for someone respectful and tidy who’s happy living with a dog. Smoking cigarettes is okay but absolutely no drugs permitted. Guests are welcome with prior notice and respect for the shared space - Full use of the garden is fine, especially if you're good at gardening 😅

A deposit of one month’s rent will be requested. This is a lodger arrangement, not a tenancy, and a simple agreement will be provided.

Availability & practical info:
The room will be available to move in probably in about a month or two. The room only has a bed right now as well as blinds so you’ll need to bring any other furnishings.
I am willing to knock off some rent for the first month so you can buy furniture but the deposit is still £850.

There isn’t much storage space inside, but the garden shed is available for bike storage and other bits. There are two car parking spaces on the property; I don’t drive, so parking is easy.

Location perks:
The house is in a peaceful spot in YO30 with Aldi right next door and Clifton Moor retail park just a short walk away for shops, gyms, restaurants, and entertainment. It’s a little further out of the city centre, but that means quieter streets and plenty of green space nearby, while still being well connected by number 6 bus into town & road

If this sounds like the right fit, please drop me a message and tell me a little about yourself!

All the best, Lily & Nia 🐾
