Double Room available in Stevenage. Bills included

shared kitchen (with your own cupboard spaces)

Please feel free to send me a text, if you have any questions and I'll call you back. (as I don't normally answer unknown numbers. Cheers)

Before you read on, if you smoke or binge drink at home, this is not the place for you. I've had a couple of lodgers in the past who were heavy drinkers and smokers before and I've ended up with property damage and odors lingering. Sorry about that.

Room Information:

- Room is available for a lodger for single use occupancy.

- Price also includes standard utility bills and council tax band B

- Each month's rent is paid in advance, due on the same date of the month as you moved in, before midday. (example - moved in on the 5th , pay in advance each month on the 5th, before 12 noon)

If you need to pay me on another date of each month, you can make an extra first payment (pro-rata) up until that date.

MORE INFO:

The flat is on the North West side of Stevenage in the much sought after Symonds Green area, which is leafy green in spring and summer and very quiet and relaxed.

It only takes 25 minutes to walk into town and you are even closer to some of the technology parks.

(please note that because google doesn't know about all the footpaths, if you just do a postcode search, it will send you a longer way around. I will show you the quick way!)

There is a local shop, pharmacy, post office, doctors surgery, hairdresser/salon, barbers, takeaways, church and dentist close by.

There is also a huge Cost-Co Supermarket on Gunnells Wood Road, just a 12 minute walk away and they sell everything you need for your shopping at discount prices, plus they have maybe the cheapest vehicle fuel in town.

Although the flat is right next to the A1M, you don't really hear the motorway because of the high walls that they've built alongside it. There is no other housing estates to the West, and instead there are fields to walk or run in.

Also nearby is the Tranquil Turtle restaurant and the Fisherman pub, for great drinks and Sunday roasts, just a few minutes walk away.

YOUR LANDLORD:

I am a local professional in my 40s, working shifts in IT. I am also a director of a Music company. I have owned the flat for over 20 years.

I rent an apartment with my family in London and occasionally sleep in the Stevenage flat. There are 3 sleepable rooms in the property, so you will potentially be sharing the flat with another person (and myself when I am staying in Stevenage).

I rented many rooms before this, so I know what it is like to be a lodger myself.

My sister lives just across the hall and will be able to assist you with any queries when I am not around.

That's it! It's a great area to live, hope to see you soon. Any questions, please get in touch. I can also provide references from my previous lodgers if required (I am also DBS checked and hold SC clearance).

Thank You,

Dave.
