Cosy room in flat near East Croydon station

Hi,

My name is Peter and I’ve lived in my flat close to East Croydon station since February 2022. My housemate is moving out to live with her bf and I am looking for someone to take her room. It will be fully free to move into from 15th January, although move-in can be anytime between then and the first week of February (and if you need to move in before 15th January this could also be arranged although some of my current housemate’s stuff may still be here). I’m providing some info below but feel free to message with any questions, and/or to arrange a viewing.

About me:
I am originally from Bournemouth but have lived in London since 2016, having previously spent a few years living in Spain after uni. I lived in rented flat shares for many years, but was fortunate enough to buy this flat in February 2022. We don’t have to have the same interests, but my time in London is usually spent: working in Westminster twice a week (civil servant, WFH 3 days a week), going to the gym, going to language exchanges/Spanish classes, playing football/tennis, going on hiking/surf weekend trips, going for pub lunches, having dinners out, and board game nights. I also enjoy chilling at home watching tele/Netflix/sports.

About you:
I’ve only had two housemates since I moved in, and both become good friends, so would be great to find someone open to hanging out over dinner at home, going out in London, etc. In terms of working, I wfh 3 times a week and work either in my room or the living room - there is a desk in the room for you to work on, or if you prefer working in the living room, that’s fine too.

About the area:
The flat is located 10 mins walk from East Croydon Station - from here you are in Clapham Junction, Victoria, London Bridge, London Blackfriars and Gatwick, all in 10-15 mins (most trains depart every 5-10 mins except after midnight). Despite being close to East Croydon it is a really quiet road, and the flat is opposite a church.

About the flat/room:
The flat is on the upper ground floor. It has a large, bright living room/kitchen diner and a new bathroom. Your room is on the small side, and currently has a bunk bed to maximise space and a desk below. However there is the option of changing this for a regular bed if you would prefer (although this would lose the desk space!). There is also quite a bit of extra storage space outside your room.

All bills including council tax, gas/electricity, water, internet, TV license and Netflix are included in the price of the room.

Let me know if you have any questions.
Pete
