Long-term double room wanted near Haggerston

Hi — I'm Matthew, 28, relocating from the north-west to start a new role in Haggerston (E2).

I'm after somewhere within about a mile of the office so I can walk or cycle in, which is why I'm focused on the following postcodes:
• E2
• E8
• N1
• E1
• EC1
• EC2

━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━
▸ BACKGROUND
━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━

• Several years in digital marketing, with a background in Google Ads — stepping up into the operations side with this move

• Originally from the north-west, moving down for the new role

• Non-smoker, no pets of my own (though I'm happy living with them)

━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━
▸ ROUTINES
━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━

• Monday to Friday, 9–6 in the office

• Train MMA a couple of times a week in the evenings

• Most evenings I'll catch up with friends or dig into a side project

• Happy with a pub dinner or drinks with flatmates

• Not a partier - tend to have early-ish nights

━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━
▸ INTERESTS
━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━

• Sports - Football (Chelsea fan 😥) & UFC

• Wellbeing - Practice Qi Gong

• Nerdy side projects - enjoy going down rabbit holes on new tools & building automations, etc

• Introverted by nature — I don't play loud music, and respect others' space.

• Into languages — planning to join the local language exchange once I'm settled

━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━
▸ WHAT I'M LOOKING FOR IN A HOUSE
━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━

• Friendly but independent — the kind of place where you chat in the kitchen, share the occasional meal, but everyone also has their own life

• Clean shared spaces (dishes done daily, hoover regularly) — I'd want flatmates who are similar

• A lively house is absolutely fine by me, as long as sleep is respected

• A quiet room with space for a desk, as I'll occasionally work from home

━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━
▸ DEAL-BREAKERS
━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━

• Any mould or serious damp issues — instant no, please don't reach out if that's a current or recurring issue

• Decent broadband is a must

• No to "Monday to Friday only" arrangements — this is my full-time home

• Not looking to buddy up with strangers to find a place together

━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━
▸ PRACTICAL STUFF
━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━

• Budget: up to £1,100/month all-in (bills included)

• Move-in: by 7th May 2026, looking for a long-term place

• References, proof of income and ID all available — SpareRoom profile already verified
