Bright, double bedroom in lovely Crookes house

Hello,

I’m Katie, a live-out landlord with a double room available in a 4 bedroom house in Crookes (S10).

It is a house-share with 3 other very friendly and considerate housemates - two females and one male. All are young professionals, working locally in Sheffield.

The room itself is a double on the ground floor which was refurbished and redecorated in 2022. It is furnished with all of the items you see in the photos (bedding not included) and benefits from being very bright and light. It has nearby access to the rest of the house’s amenities including the kitchen, living room and a downstairs toilet.

The house itself is large with 4 double bedrooms and two bathrooms. The housemates are all clean and tidy, friendly, easy-going, and considerate of each other’s routines - and they are looking for someone who will fit into this dynamic.
The property was completely in renovated in 2021 with a new kitchen, two new bathrooms, and a new living room. The kitchen, living room and first bathroom are on the ground floor on the garden side. The living room has a big L shaped sofa and a large TV with all the mod cons. The main bathroom is on the first floor, with an additional downstairs loo off the lounge. The kitchen and hallway were redecorated in December 2023. There is free on-street parking right outside the house and the nearest bus stop is a 1 minute walk away.

In the kitchen there is an American style fridge-freezer with space so everyone has their own shelf and drawer in both sides. There is also a kitchen cupboard for each tenant and plenty of space communally. The house is furnished with all kitchenware so you would not need to bring anything. There’s a microwave and a washing mashing with tumble dryer. There is also a large standing freezer in the basement, in case people need extra freezer space. There is lots of space in the basement for storage of items you don’t want to keep in your room, like a suitcase.

Three housemates currently live in the property and see the place more as a home than a “rented house”. They all work so like to have a quiet house after 9 in the evening during the week, then relax a bit more at the weekend. They do things like eat together now and again, and go to the pub. They like to keep it clean and tidy – with a rota for cleaning communal areas, and are respectful and considerate of one another. They’re looking for a housemate who would be similar. If you like to join them in being social at the weekend that would work, but equally if you like to keep a bit more to yourself that would also be a good fit as they know everyone is different.

The minimum term is 6 months and there is no maximum. After the 6-month fixed period, the contract will run to a rolling one and once this has started, should you wish to move out, we ask for a two month notice period in order to re-fill the room. The rent is £415 per month, paid on the 25th by direct debit, and the deposit is £415 up-front at the start. We use the TDS to protect your deposit. The rent includes all bills EXCEPT gas and electricity. One of the tenants organises this energy bill, and the bill for that is split equally between the four tenants per month. The rent is inclusive of council tax (Band A).

If you think you would like to view the room, the house and meet the housemates please do get in contact. It is really important to me that the new tenant is the right ‘fit’ for the current housemates and vice versa. As such, I ask that the housemates lead the viewings and feedback to me to ensure you can get the best feel for each other, the space and have the opportunity to ask lots of questions. Please don’t hesitate to message me with any questions you may have and to set up a viewing.

Thanks,
Katie
