Hi, I'm Jake, and I'm looking for somebody nice to share my house.
I have a double room that will be available from the 4th/5th of April.
I'm not in a hurry and am more interested in finding the right fit.... Hense the long rambling description. 😂
It's an unusual place and is still partly work in progress. Whilst the house may look quite rough on the outside it is actually very nicely renovated on the inside and the room itself would be in beautiful condition.
House is currently occupied by myself, Guyeon(she is a PHD student working in sustainability) and Fiona(masters student who's leaving at the end of March) I'd describe the vibe as very peaceful and friendly(perhaps middle aged 😂) so I am looking for someone more mature/over 25, preferably with student status/council tax exempt so maybe a mature student or someone doing PHD.... someone wanting a place for a year or two max, rather than to settle longer term. I might consider someone professional for similar period of time, but that would put the cost of the rent up by around £30 as the council tax would go up.(all bills are included in the rent... Just for information It's council tax band C)
I work in the performing arts, my time is split between work/being with my partner in Leeds(she rarely comes here) and more recently I spend quite a lot of time in Scotland looking after aged parents. The house features a crazy big wild garden out back.(very much work in progress.... nature is perhaps doing most of the work here) We're sociable and friendly and enjoy preparing and sharing food when time allows but are also quite independent. It would be nice to have someone who would similarly enjoy a bit of sharing without feeling obliged. It's very important to me to keep a tidy ship so someone who is happy/enthusiastic about keeping things very clean and tidying/drying up as they go would be a good fit. Recycling is also important so someone who doesn't mind being thoughtful in that area would be great. We're not big fans of alcohol consumption/boozy culture, but certainly not prudish and do have the odd glass with food.
I may be quite slow replying to messages because I've got a lot on, but If you think you might be a good match, please message and tell us a bit about yourself and what you're looking for.
Look forward to hearing from you soon.
Cheers.
Jake
