Welcoming double room, near station & parks
Large, welcoming double room in a calm, friendly household, right next to West Dulwich station. This is the main bedroom, and you would be living with just one other person in a three bedroom flat, as one room is used as a study. All bills and wifi included.
If you're interested in the room you'll find a lot of info in this ad - so do read all of it. And when you message, the more you can tell me about yourself and your life/work routine the better. I'm also happy to answer questions. Now read on...
Some of my work is out of the house, and some at home. I'm looking to rent to a woman, someone with regular daytime working hours, who also spends several weekdays out of the house. That said, the room is also comfortable for when you need to work from home. I'm often away at weekends, so you'll frequently have the place to yourself as well. I like having a balance between sociability and independence, sharing the odd meal and chat, but giving each other space. In general I'm pretty low key at home. Please note minimum age (28) - I'm 51.
The room is furnished with double bed, desk, chest of drawers, wardrobe, shelves and chairs. There's enough room to put down a yoga mat if that's a part of your routine.
The flat is on the ground floor, surrounded by communal green areas in a block set away from main road/traffic noise, with a balcony area to the rear. Lots of parks on the doorstep; free tennis courts 2 mins walk away at Belair Park, Dulwich Park and Gallery less than 10 mins walk. I'm involved in a community garden (just 50 metres away) that makes growing space available to residents - if you were interested there might be a raised bed you could use for veg growing.
We're one minute's walk from West Dulwich station, so as well as very quick travel time to Brixton and Victoria (5 and 12 mins respectively on the train), there is an easy connection at Herne Hill to the line up through Blackfriars, Farringdon and St Pancras, and on to Luton or Bedford. We're also on the route of buses 3, P13 and 201 that connect us to central London, Brixton, Streatham, East Dulwich and New Cross.
There is unrestricted parking. For cyclists Cyclehoop bike lockers about 50 yards away, which are cheap to rent. Both Brixton and East Dulwich are a ten minute bike ride away.
Deposit will be held by the Tenancy Deposit Scheme.
I'll consider lets shorter than 6 months, but would charge slightly more for the room. Current lodger is moving out on 3 April - a Sunday - and it might be possible to move in that afternoon/evening if necessary.
