Hinkley Point C workers:

If you're looking for accommodation near an HPC bus pick-up point, then this property is further than some are willing to travel, but you might like the accommodation more than the commute.
The bus company, SPS, has told me that the nearest pick-up points are in Taunton town centre (15 minutes' drive), or at Taunton park and ride (20 minutes' drive).
Parking at Taunton park and ride is free for HPC workers, so long as you park in the dedicated zone there.
There's more information and a phone number to call on the SPS bus website. Search for HPC Passenger Support.

Home: 3-bed Victorian conversion terraced property

Location: village (gated collection of houses set back from the road)

Amenities: Local pub/restaurant and village shop less than 5 minutes' walk away, park with field, basketball and tennis court, plus bus stop over the road

Shared living space:

Generous-sized living room with two brand new sofas, leading out onto a small garden and a 'sort of' patio area.

Good size kitchen/dining area, with large table and 4 chairs.

Kitchen has a full-size dishwasher, washing machine, large fridge and freezer, gas boiler and sink.

The property has lots of natural light thanks to its tall, modern sash windows and was recently repainted. Being Victorian, it retains its tall ceilings. The windows have shutters and the bedrooms have blackout blinds to ensure a good night's sleep.

It's a really attractive property and I'm gradually working on adding all the necessary things to make it as homely and welcoming as possible, so if you can bear with some things looking a bit bare temporarily, that would be appreciated.

About me:
I'm Charles and I would be the live-in landlord. I would be working from home Monday to Friday (roughly 9-5) in my office room upstairs.

********

About you:
Friendly, tidy, respectful, considerate professional and non-smoker, male or female, who has a job they travel to each day (i. e. not a night shift worker or a work-from-home worker) and who doesn't have pets.

For the right person, I'm looking for mid to longer term monthly lets for ease and consistency.

It's vital that I get on well with, trust, and communicate well with my house guest and that they're able to feel at home, so please tell me about yourself when making contact, including what you do for your work, your desired length of stay and anything else you feel makes you a good person to share with.
