**£240 per month** plus small monthly contribution to bills.

Homeshare Location:

The house is very well located only a few moments from Alexandra Park & Palace itself, 10-15 minutes’ walk to the shops and cafes in Muswell Hill, and excellent bus and transport links to surrounding areas, and to central London – only 5 minutes’ walk to Bounds Green station (Piccadilly Line) and 5-10 minutes’ walk to Alexandra Palace (Thameslink) station.

Homeshare Opportunity:

This is a very nice Homeshare opportunity for a mature female sharer to live comfortably and affordably in a quiet residential area in North London, in return for providing some practical support and daily companionship to a lady in her mid-80s.

What the Opportunity involves:

In return for the low-cost accommodation, (£240 per month), we are looking to match our very well-educated and engaging homeowner with a bright, warm and friendly female sharer (25+) who is happy to provide some practical support and daily companionship, and a reassuring presence at night (approximately 10 hours per week). No personal care is permitted.

Our Homeowner is a friendly and intelligent lady who has had a very interesting and long medical career. Her eyesight is quite poor, and her mobility a little limited however she is active and likes to go out when she can and can also get around the house on her own. She is well supported by her close family and family members occasionally stay over too when visiting.

Our homeowner has a remarkable source of knowledge and is extremely interesting to chat to about many subjects including history, philosophy, current affairs, science, and culture. She enjoys listening to classical music, attending concerts and popping out for a coffee and, whilst she enjoys having some company, she also prefers her own space at times.

Our homeowner is used to sharing her home as she has home-shared previously and is now looking to do so again with a bright, tidy and considerate female, who is either working or studying from home, or on a hybrid basis, perhaps with an interesting job, or a PhD student, who has their own independent life; someone kind, thoughtful, considerate, helpful and reliable. A non-smoker.

Practical help will include helping with any IT or technology issues, a little grocery shopping, odd practical jobs around the house for example, helping to bring things down to her that she has forgotten upstairs and answering the door to deliveries. Someone who would be happy sharing some meal prep time in the kitchen, a few evening meals and would also enjoy some companionship, stimulating conversation and occasional outings together.

** Our Homeowner would prefer to share with a female and cannot take in a pet because of her eyesight and mobility. She is slightly hard of hearing so clear spoken English is a priority.**

We are looking to match this Homeshare opportunity soon, so if it is of interest, please get in touch with us and tell us about yourself and why you would be well suited to it.

**Cost: £240 per month**
