I am looking for a special person to share my home - someone compatible, who would be prepared to carry out various light household tasks (for instance: cleaning; washing and ironing, some light cooking; and maybe even some simple gardening) and be available to assist generally, as I have mobility issues due to Parkinson’s. Carers visit each morning. The ideal person would be a PhD or English language student, working or studying much of the time at home. As recompense, I have reduced the rent that I am requesting to a figure that reflects such an arrangement.

I have a reasonable sized quiet room to offer, which overlooks the secluded back garden of my late Victorian house. It comes with almost exclusive use of an adjoining bathroom and shared use of a kitchen, communal areas and garden.

All services and Wi-Fi are included, but parking permits are not.

The house is located very close to the river and within easy walking distance of the city centre. There are two Co-ops and a surprisingly good selection of places to eat and drink in the locality.

Ideally, we would start the arrangement on the 1st of July, but an earlier start date could maybe be agreed if necessa. y.

Please only apply if you think you meet my criteria and would have the spare time available, and please do not be offended if I judge otherwise and do not pursue any interest you might express in renting the room
