🏡 Double Room in Tooting – Replacement Tenant for existing Joint Tenancy Wanted | £1,100 pcm + security deposit
Looking for a single occupancy, professional (no couples or family, sorry) to take over half of an existing joint tenancy agreement as my friend is moving out to pastures anew. Would ideally suit someone who loves dogs, is looking for a home and works full time from the office or hybrid arrangement.
🗓️ Move-in date: Between 1st –14th September 2026 dependant on passing of referencing.
📍 Tooting/Furzedown – quiet residential area, approx. 7 minutes’ walk to main field of Tooting Common.
🚇 Approx. 20 minutes’ walk to both Tooting Bec & Tooting Broadway tube stations. 30mins walk to Tooting rail station.
Busses within 2-5 mins walk respectively.
Electric points for cars, bicycles and scooters at the top of our road.
Close to shops, parks, Tooting Bec athletics track and a quick commute to Wimbledon, Balham, Clapham and Central London. We also have the touted Tooting Broadway Market a leisurely walk away.
📋 Tenancy
This is a replacement tenant / direct tenancy swap to replace 1 of the tenants moving out, rather than a new tenancy.
The incoming tenant will need to complete referencing and approval through the letting agents. Full referencing and a deposit (for half of the full deposit amount) will be required. I think it's approximately £1440 but the exact figure and referencing requirements will be handled by our rental acency/ property management team.
Date of rent due every month is by the 14th.
Need to know:
🏠 The shared home:
A lovely, clean, large two-bedroom first- floor flat, shared with myself & my little Yorkie girl. I've spent a lot of time making it our home so someone looking for the same, would be the ideal candidate.
• Shared family bathroom with shower and tub.
• Shared open-plan kitchen/lounge area with skylights, giving the space lots of natural light.
• Small private outdoor patio accessed through double doors.
• Linen storage cupboard.
• Entry area with fixed coat hooks and stairs up to first floor.
• On-street Permit parking (tenants' own responsibility to arrange via the council. )
•Main entrance to the property shared with downstairs friendly neighbours, who also have 2 cats.
👣 About me
I'm a busy professional, working long hours with a hybrid set-up, who enjoys a good bottle of wine, reading, binge-watching true crime or exploring the outdoors and culinary experiences that London and UK has to offer along with my little terrier.
Used to being in house shares so happy to hang out or each do their own thing.
🐶 Pet-occupied
Keahi is my 3.5 year old yorkshire terrier who is super friendly, loves meeting new people, chicken and tummy rubs — so the incoming tenant would need to be happy living with a very cute pet🐾. She's hypo-allergenic, completely housetrained, fairly quiet (unless there's a fox nearby), and lives her best life as an emotional support dog and canine version of a foodie. She also travels everywhere with me, including into work and out to restaurants.
🪑 Furniture
🛏️ Your private space.
• Good-sized east-facing double bedroom, light and bright with blackout curtains.
• Built-in hanging clothes cupboard with additional storage space above
• Unfurnished, so you can make it your own
Shared areas are fully furnished, however some of the current living room furniture in photos will be going with the exiting tenant and be replaced by me. Happy to discuss if you have any of your own you would like to bring. Plants do amazing here, so any plant-babies are welcome too.
💷 Bills currently are approximately £150 pcm on top of rent and covers the below:
• Water & waste
• Council tax
• Gas & Electricity
• 5G Broadband.
Please note this will change due to tariff prices changing but will update as it goes. Separate agreement will be made for house consumables.
If you're interested, please send me a message with a little bit about yourself, what you do, whether you're comfortable living with a small dog, and when you're looking to move. 😊
