Double Bedroom w/En-Suite and Rooftop Terrace

Living Room

Our current flatmate is saying goodbye to Aldgate East leaving behind a furnished (landlord is flexible and can remove the furniture) en-suite bedroom in our top-floor penthouse flat at Wool House. Hence, my bestie Karolina and I are looking for a new flatmate to take it!

About Us
We are two volleyball besties from the same club, 33 and 30, both professionals working in banking/tech and retail. Originally from Germany and Poland we’ve been in London for a couple of years now. Our interests are volleyball (we play for a local club in Div 1 LVA), plants/gardening (we own a fair amount of plants indoor and outdoor as you can see on the pictures), travelling (Anja more so, her count is at +60 countries), good food and bubble tea (we love to explore new places but also have our comfort restaurants), K-dramas and dogs (we dog-sit regularly).

Who we are looking for?
We are looking for a flatmate who we can befriend as we enjoy to celebrate successes together or help each other out when needed. Our flat is our home rather than just a flat and we’d like to find someone who is independent but also happy to share a dinner or a visit to the local pub with us every now and then. We work full time and have an active social live with several days out per week. On weekends (if Karolina isn’t working), we do the usual things like going to markets, the movies, meeting friends, eating in/out, going for drinks, travelling, cycle tours etc. The flat is our "sanctuary", somewhere peaceful to come back home. Therefore, we’re not looking for a flatmate who still enjoys midweek partying.

The ideal flatmate will:
- Pay the rent/bills on time
- Is a professional
- Has an active social life - but doesn't bring the party back home
- Is clean and tidy!
- Likes to socialise and has a bubble tea/drink with us from time to time
- Doesn’t smoke (at least not in the flat)
- Has no "live-in" partner
