1 double room Victorian house Elephant&Castle

1 large double room in Victorian house with garden Elephant & Castle (zone 1), ideal for international students

I have a large double, single occupancy, room available now for immediate rent as a lodger in my house (I am the owner/landlord) Brandon Street SE17. The room is at the front, street-facing side of the house and overlooks a small park. The house has some of the best transport connections in central London. It is less than 10 mins’ walk from both Elephant & Castle tube/overground (zone 1) and Kennington tube (zone 2) and is on a street adjacent to East Street market and the Walworth Road with all their shops and amenities; it is also next to the new Elephant Park development with its restaurants and trendy bars and cafes. The house, a 3-bedroom Victorian cottage, has been recently decorated and is fully refurbished.
The room is fully furnished with double bed, wardrobe, clothes’ rail, chest of drawers and desk with chair and lamp.

RENT and RENTAL PERIOD: £1350 per month and includes all utility bills (gas, electricity, water, wi-fi) and council tax. Rental period is flexible : I prefer a minimum of 6 months’ contract up to 18 months, but will consider more. One month’s rent as a deposit; one month’s notice if you plan to leave. Particularly suited to international students who need short, flexible contract periods and who are on short university/postgrad courses. The room is available for 1 person only and cannot be shared between two people.

HOUSE: You will be sharing my house with me and one other (female) lodger. It is a no smoking household. I am looking for people who are mature, tidy, trustworthy, friendly and respectful. This is not really a “student” party house!! I will ask for references. Finally, but very importantly, you will also need to be dog-friendly as we (my partner and I) have a dog. He does not live permanently in the house in London, he lives at my partner’s house; but he does come to stay at the house a few times each year for a couple of days each time! He is very gentle and friendly. If you like dogs, you will love him!

If you are interested tell me a little bit about yourself, and we can arrange a Skype/Facetime chat and then, if suitable, a viewing. Thanks, Gary
