Hello! We are looking for someone to share our lovely flat in E6.
🛌 ROOM DETAILS
The spacious double room is located at the front of the flat and features huge bay windows that let in lots of natural light. It comes furnished with a brand-new, kingsize, solid oak bed frame, an Emma Original mattress, comfortable armchair, and a 32 inch TV for your personal use. The space is styled with built-in open shelves, wicker drawers, and an exposed brick feature fireplace. There is plenty of space to add a clothes rail/wardrobe and desk.
You are welcome to hang your own paintings and artwork to make the space your own.
🏡 FLAT DETAILS
The flat is a 1930s end-of-terrace ground-floor garden flat. The bathroom was recently installed and features a roll-top bath, rain shower, and underfloor heating. A new combi boiler was also recently installed meaning showers are powerful and endlessly hot.
Outside there is a sunny, south-facing and garden with lots of plants, a patio with dining area and outdoor lighting, along with a garage that can be used as additional storage space for bikes, etc. The property is equipped with an ADT security alarm system and 24/7 CCTV. If you drive you can apply for the household resident's permit for your car (I have a car but park on the front drive so I don't need the permit).
AREA INFO 📍
The flat is in E6, bordering Plaistow and East Ham. The closest tube station is Upton Park on the district line which is a 10-minute walk or 5-minute bus journey from the flat.

👥 ABOUT US (THE CURRENT HOUSEHOLD)
I’m Bridie (she/her), a 37-year-old queer woman currently working in mental health in the NHS. I work at a hospital and also from home (2 days a week) in my private study (this is completely separate from the communal living spaces and won't disturb you at all). My partner Amy (she/they) is a 35-year-old queer woman currently training to be a psychotherapist.
We are both warm and respectful. We travel fairly frequently so you will get the place to yourself often.
