The room comes with a double bed, mattress, a 3-drawer cabinet, a bedside single drawer cabinet, a table, and curtain.
.
The floor is carpeted.
.
The room has 8 wall sockets out of which, 6 are close to the bed, which made plugging my laptop and phones and charges pretty easy.
.
The room has 4 ceiling lights on one switch and one hanging LED Bulb.
.
I'm leaving one of my lamps so that's there as well (if you wish yo have it).
.
The room gets ample amount of sunlights after noon.

One on each floor.
You will be sharing the washroom with one other housemate.

Both the washrooms have a similar layout.

- Wall-mounted mirror
- Shower Cubicle
- Toilet closet
- Radiator big enough to hang all your life's regrets which pops up into your head while you're in the showers (please pardon my humor).
- An Exhaust Fan
- 4 Ceiling Lights
- Additional remote controlled light above the mirror (helps with shaving if you're someone who wrestle facial hair with a shaver every morning).

About the Backyard

Chill vibes + Feline friends
You will be visited by Ms. Chimnyface. She's shy and loves tuna, duck and chicken in gravy.
She will hiss at you but she'll respect you if you feed her.
The sunsets are priceless.
When the weather is lovely, we love to sit outside and in the setting sun-light.
.
I did attempt to do some farming but winter took it all away and now I must leave. The mint plant still lives, so yep.

A little about the housemates
________________________________________________
2 Females
1 Male
.
Clean, Friendly, Responsible, Reliable, Kind and Incredibly helpful.
I honestly love these people enough to call this place a home. The only reason I'm leaving is because I have a course in India coming up in June.
I've lived in shared accomodations for 7+ years and these folks have been the best people I've lived with so far.
Never had any issues that usually comes with shared living.

I'm looking for someone who take on the rest of the time left on my contract which ends in August (6 months).
The landlady will update the contract with your name once you've been onboarded.
The house is rented as a whole building from the landlady and if and when you wish to leave, you may do so once you find a replacement and updated the landlady regarding the same such that she can update the contract.

A new contract is made in August because that's the month we started renting the house.
