Hello people of SpareRoom!
My housemate Freya and I are recruiting a third member for our motley crew, and have a spare double bedroom going in the chillpad. It’s a real house with a real garden, real dishwasher and a real fireplace, and Freya had to haggle like crazy to get it down to the current price.
We are renting directly from the landlord, so there’s no faffing around with an agency to get anything done. He's a pretty dece guy who sorts us out whenever we get too drunk and break something (just kidding, if you see this Justin obviously we don’t drink...).
A bit about us then – we met two years ago through spare room, and bonded over mutual love for Taylor Swift, obsession with Love Island, and fear that we aren’t really ready to be adults. We've spent the last few years chilling in the garden, exploring Stockwell/Brixton/Clapham, and buying Harry Potter stash from Primark.
I work in London Bridge at a publishers (sometimes I bring home free books), and Freya is in
Green Park working for a management consultancy firm (has been known to bring home free nail varnish). We are both pretty easy-going, straightforward people, we like to go out on the weekends for a solid dance sesh, but also like to kick back with a film (Harry Potter) on a Sunday night or lounge around in the pub having a good chat. We know we aren’t naturally the tidiest people in the world, so would like to keep having a cleaner... You can’t be good at everything hey.
We are flexible on age/gender and anything else, but really want someone who wants to get involved in the house and hang out every now and again rather than treat it as just a room. We really are quite friendly, funny people, promise. And we love BBQs and Sunday roasts so extra points for you if you share those preferences.
More boring stuff – the room is a double, not massive but has good cupboard space, and a big window. The house is super close to Stockwell and Oval tube stations (about 10 min walk to each depending on how speedy you are), and walking distance to Brixton and Clapham.
Rent is 780 per month, not including bills. The contract is for 12 months, and we'd be looking for the new housemate to move-in in September.
Happy to answer questions/send over more pics. We’re doing viewings on Sunday 28th - send me a message if you reckon you could get on board!
