I own the house and have lived in this room for 6 years but I moved to Cardiff last year to study.
There is a house cat called pixel - she is very friendly but obviously you need to be ok living with a cat!
The house has 4 double bedrooms, and a spare bedroom which we don't rent out - this has a single bed for guests, and is sometimes used as an office during the day. The bedroom being advertised here is on the top floor (2nd floor).
There are 2 bathrooms in the house, one on the first floor and one on the 2nd floor. One has a walk in shower, the other has a bath and shower. Both have recently been resealed and repainted. The ground floor has a large living/dining room (this used to be 2 rooms, but had a wall knocked through and archway put in), a kitchen, and a utility room.
The bedroom is currently kitted out with 5 smart HUE lights (variable colour yellow to blue for different times of the day), with light switches next to door and bed, but these will likely be swapped out to normal lights in the future. The room has most of the furnishings that I built up over my time living there, including:
- Black-out blinds
- Ikea double bed
-2 small bedside shelves, one on the wall and one between the wardrobe and bed
- A high quality thick Ikea mattress
- Large Ikea wardrobe
- Attic cupboard with a lot of storage (behind the brown door!)
- Under bed drawers
- Desk
- Desk chair
The ground floor had renovations last year with oak LVT flooring throughout the kitchen porch and utility area, and new carpeting in the living room / dining room.
The kitchen/utility room has a washing machine, dish washer, 2 fridges and 2 freezers, a gas oven with gas hobs. There is a gas combi boiler for hot water and central heating, which is controlled via a smart heating system and can be controlled from your phone.
There is a garden, with paved area good for barbecues over the summer! I pay for a gardener to come regularly and keep it tidy.
Heating, water, electricity, council tax and TV licence bills come out of a house account, and I let the tenants know the cost each month. This generally costs ~£80 a month per person. Broadband is handled between the tenants.
Each tenant has put a quick bio to describe themselves:
Grant, 27, keep to myself a lot but equally enjoy doing house activities (cooking, games, series etc). Hobbies are climbing, cycling and film photography when feeling pretentious enough.
Would always appreciate someone that would feed Pixel when I can't be there!

Pixel, 8, hobbies include staring out of windows or at walls, pretending like I haven't been feed and meowing at feeding time. Will fall asleep on you at awkward times and get the zoomies at 9pm for no reason. Still struggle with cat flap
