Hello people of spareroom!
I am sadly leaving this cosy room in Bethnal Green and looking for a tidy, easy going, and mature professional to takeover.
The room:
Located on the second floor of the flat. Comes furnished with a comfy double bed, bedside table, and practically new spacious draws and wardrobe (desk not included but the chair is if wanted!). The room is on the smaller side but as shown, there is enough space for a desk to WFH.
Unfortunately, the room sometimes isn't the quitest due to general outside street noise (mostly the acapella performances of foxes) and the boiler being adjoined to the bedroom.
The flat:
Located in a friendly and secure block of ex-council flats, the flat is in a great location. It's a 10 minute walk to the central line via bethnal green tube station. It's also a 10-15 minute walk to the District/Hammersmith and City line via Stepney green tube station. Also the number 8 bus runs very frequently taking you to either Tottenham court road via the city or Bow Church via Bow. Also the lovely Vctoria park and Regents canal is 10 minutes away. Loads of shops, pubs, and cute cafes nearby.
The flat itself has 4 bedrooms. It has one toilet and one bath/shower. There are a few areas and cupboards for storage. There's a cosy living room with a small balcony to live out any plant parent dreams. The kitchen has everything you need with an oven, microwave, air fryer, good fridge and storage space, and a washing machine. However, it is on the smaller side so it probably won't suit someone looking to chef it up for a couple hours every evening.
There is also has a cleaning rota for the communal areas of the flat to keep things ticking along nicely.
The flat is owned by a kind and responsive private landlord who is prompt at addressing issues but also keeps their distance for the day to day running of everything.
Rent/bills/admin:
The room will be available from Sunday, June 7, 2026.(Rent will be pre-paid for the month with you paying the difference.)
Rent is £715 paid monthly.
Bills are roughly £75-£90 per month.
Council tax band C: £32.50 per month
Water: £21.50 per month
Internet: £8 per month
Gas and electricity: approximately £15-30 per month (depending on the time of the year)
TV licence: £ billed annually
As part of the new tenancy laws, you will be signing on to a new lease which will be issued as a part of moving in. A deposit of £650 will also need to be paid as part of this.
The flatmates:
Matt (he/him), 32, secondary school maths teacher. Can sometimes be heard giving a faithful whimsical rendition of his favourite Lady Gaga or musical theatre song of the day. Excellent pub quiz team member.
Erin (she/her), 31, primary school teacher. Often heard pleading the case for why the Australian words for things make more sense than the British equivalents. Always up for a good yap over a nightly sweet treat.
Lucas (he/him), 33, account manager. You'll often hear him laughing hysterically at something Matt or Erin has said before you see him. Otherwise he'll either be lamenting the fortunes of Liverpool football club or heading out to a gig. (Unfortunately he will most likely be moving out in the summer so don't get too attached.)
Given the size of the flat, this isn't the space for hosting parties. But everyone is social and up for a chat in the evenings but equally have their own things going on and are respectful of everyone's space. Looking for somebody who fits that vibe!
Do reach out if you are interested with a little bit about you and we will look to schedule viewings in the next week or so :)
