We had a few changes in our house, so you might have seen this ad before, and this is the last weekend we are holding viewings.
Sine is moving back to Dublin by Early June and our cute double room and private bathroom in our beautiful East London home is up for grabs again! (located in E3 - between Hackney Wick and Bow North, right near Vicky Park and Canals).
A bit more about us:
I am Marleen ( She/her and 34) I am a Project Manager and currently studying part-time to become a Counsellor and Sound Therapist which is where my passion lies. I love nature, dancing, yoga, reading, connecting deeply to others, the odd fesssstival and club night. I am always up to try new things and recently started bouldering!
My name is Kirby (She/her and 28). I am originally from Arkansas in the US, have lived in the UK for the last 10 years and work in Business Development at the Royal Society of arts. My background is in gender studies and enjoy exploring all the queer venues, films, and art London has to offer. I work from home 2 days a week, enjoy cooking and reading, and spending time with friends.
Kirby also only recently moved in, so we are looking for the right person to start from scratch and to create a warm home environment.
We are looking to cultivate a friendly, relaxed, communal atmosphere, and open communication is really important to us. We try to make time to hang together regularly but equally respect our individual schedules and needs. We have friends over and throw occasional dinner parties / drinks but mainly this house is our place to recharge from the hustle and bustle.
We believe the key to a good flat share is honest and respectful communication, consideration and understanding for each other.
A bit more about the house:
It’s a lovely spacious & bright three bed home with a little garden (still attempting to successfully grow veggies). On the ground floor you will find a kitted-out kitchen (massive stove, two ovens, wine fridge and dishwasher, in addition to the basics) and your own modern bathroom, on the first floor is a separate living room and your bedroom. The other rooms are on the second floor with a shared second bathroom. There is plenty of space to wfh if you wish to do so, as well as loads of communal storage space around the house (attic, under stairs, built-in cupboards, etc), and of course a place for your bike!
The total rent is £2,900 which we would split equally (966 pp) as the rooms also have roughly the same sizes and bills come to around £95 (including council tax, internet, water, electricity and gas).
We have a great relationship with the landlord and the maintenance agency - they are lovely and always respond very quickly to repair requests etc.
You will need to pass basic referencing checks, including previous landlord references, affordability checks (at least £29,000 salary) universal credit + a part time job is accepted
Regarding accessibility, there is a three story, staircase flat 8 steps per floor. The room is on the first floor, the bathroom and the kitchen are on the ground floor where there are no steps.
You would be taking over the tenancy, which runs until March 2025 (potential option to extend, existing flatmates are very keen).
If this sounds like its aligning with your plans, we would love to hear from you - please get in touch with a bit about yourself and we will be aiming to host viewings this weekend.
