Two double rooms (single occupancy only for each) available for rent in a modernised Victorian house (while retaining many original features) in a pleasant, safe and quiet neighbourhood of Clapton E5 (zone 2). Sharing with one other professionals. The rooms come with shared use of a toilet (i. e. for the occupants of the two rooms only), with further access to a second, common toilet (there is also a third toilet in the property), and shared use of a large shower room (again, for the occupants of the two rooms only) (the other housemate has separate access to his own shower and bathroom facilities). All major appliances (e. g. dishwasher, washing machine, fridges, etc) are insured against breakdown, as are the shower, electrical sockets & bulbs, plumbing (internal & external), and central heating, meaning that there will be no need to pay additional costs if repairs are needed. Excellent transport links mean that the house is especially well-placed for the West End, City, Islington, Tower Hamlets, Haringey, Waltham Forest and Camden. Rent is inclusive of ALL bills. The house is a non-smoking house, but outdoor smoking is OK. The household would suit tidy, clean, responsible, professional types with a mature outlook.
The rooms are fully furnished and each comes with TV, Blu Ray player Virgin cable (with Sky Sports, BT Sport and Sky Movies) & TiVo Box, and fast (200 mbps+, officially) wireless broadband internet. Netflix access is also part of the cable package. The larger of the two rooms also has its own fridge. There is a large kitchen-diner with dishwasher, washing machine, 2 fridge freezers, tumble dryer, microwave, coffee machine, electric oven, bread-maker, soup-maker, induction hob, halogen oven etc. The house has gas central heating. There is full use of a large mature garden.
