** Wake up to a view of the Thames.**
I'm looking for one considerate professional to share this beautiful townhouse with me for a shorter stay.
Your room is a large double with its own ensuite - a proper bath and separate shower - and windows looking straight out over the river. It's an iconic view and an iconic location, and after a while you still don't get used to it.
It comes fully furnished, bedding and linen included.
* The house *
It's six bedrooms in total and only two of us living in the main house — it's spacious, quiet and calm, with plenty of room to have your own space when you want it.
Open-plan kitchen and living room with balcony windows that open right onto the Thames (the photos do the selling here)
- Fast wifi
- 5-10 min walk to Limehouse & Westferry DLR
- 20min walk to Canary Wharf
All bills included — heating, electricity, water, council tax and broadband.
*The fine print *
The house is going on the market shortly and will most likely sell within 2–10 months. It's a real opportunity to experience a home of this quality and history without a huge 12month lock-in!
This is a lodger-lodging basis, not a normal rental. I'm a fellow lodger helping the landlord find the right person.
Minimum two months, then a rolling monthly agreement.
It suits someone relocating, on a fixed-term contract, between properties, or working in London part of the week. If you need long-term certainty this isn't the right room.
*Who I'm looking for *
A working professional, employed or self-employed, who is quiet, clean and considerate of shared space. I'm friendly and happy to share a glass of wine on the balcony, but this is a calm household rather than a party house.
What I'll ask for
Proof of employment or income, a reference from a previous landlord or employer, and a £1800 deposit alongside the first month's rent. All standard, and it means we both know where we stand.
Rent £1600 pcm including all bills · Available September 18th · Minimum stay 2 months, then rolling
