This ad is for a newly built en suite loft apartment with kitchenette for £1,200 plus bills (with potential flexibility for a particularly good match).
An online interview can be conducted where I can show the house prior to any in-person meeting. There is currently a tenant in the property but she will leave mid-April.
We have another spare bedroom and storage space so we can offer flexibility around move-in dates.
Coucil tax and broadband bills are included. Electricity, gas, and water will be divided between the occupants each month.
The cost of this varies between £35 in summer and upto £75 in winter.
The studio apartment is en suite with its own kitchen and plenty of sound insulation between it and the lower floors. The lodger will still have access to facilities on the other floors (washing machine, bath, garden etc). Therefore, other than a shared entry and washing machine, they have as much independence as they want.
We have a front and back garden which tenants are welcome to spend time in. The front "garden" faces the road and has off-street parking. The back garden is quiet.
There are bus stops less than a minute's walk from the house that go to Kingsbury and Colindale stations which take about 10 minutes by bus or 20 minutes walk. We are a 10-15 minute walk to two high-streets, four supermarkets, a gym, and numerous restaurants, pubs, and shops (but far away enough to not have the noise).
We are also close to multiple large parks and a small lake.
Ideally, we're looking for a tenant who is clean, tidy, quiet, conscientious, and interested in casual friendship (occasional meals and activities together) but who is self-sufficient and independent. Though, a tenant that values privacy and solitude is also fine.
I may be able to offer a discount for lodgers that are willing to contribute to home maintenance (cooking, cleaning, gardening etc) or occasional child-care beyond the basics of cleanliness and cleaning up after onself, but these are optional.
About us:
My name is Michael and I'm a self-employed science teacher and home DIY-er. Mibun is a yoga teacher. Lucy is a 3 year old child (she's grown alot since that video) who is quite well behaved. Walls are solid, and the fire doors are thick and dense so noise doesn't travel much.
When we have the time, we enjoy hiking and cycling in nature, watching reality programmes (history, nature, philosophy etc), gardening, and board games. I, Michael, also like computer and table-top roleplaying games and a good beer or spirit while Mibun enjoys cooking.
There are two other tenants in the house, an economics PhD student and an electrician.
