Hi! I'm William, and I'm looking for a new flatmate as my current one is moving out.
The flat occupies the ground floor of a former townhouse in a quiet residential area in the heart of Wapping. It's spacious, filled with natural light, and overlooks the Ornamental Canal, making it a relaxed place to live while still being close to the City.
The flat features:
• Shared fully equipped kitchen (washing machine, oven, induction hob and fridge)
• Bright living and dining room overlooking the canal
• One shared bathroom
• Private garden
• Off-street parking and garage
The rent is £1,100 pcm, excluding bills. Additional monthly costs include:
- Wifi: £17
- Council tax (band E): £95
- Electricity (varies per monthly use): approx. £60 - £90
- Water: £23
Average monthly bill total: £195 - £215
The flat is exceptionally well connected:
• 12-minute walk to Wapping Station (Overground)
• 17-minute walk to Tower Hill Station (District & Circle lines)
• Multiple bus routes with easy access to the City and East London
The location is one of the best things about the flat. The Ornamental Canal is literally on the doorstep, while Shadwell Basin, St Katharine Docks and the Tower of London are all within around a 10-minute walk. There's also a large Waitrose just five minutes away, along with several gyms, cafés and pubs nearby.
About me:
I'm originally from South Africa and have lived in London for the past four years, including nearly two years in this flat. I work in the legal sector and typically work from the office Tuesday to Thursday.
Outside of work I enjoy cooking, reading, running, going to the gym, playing padel and catching up with friends. I'm tidy, easy-going and sociable, and I'm looking for someone with a similar mindset—someone who's happy to socialise have a drink now and then, while also respecting each other's space.
Ultimately, I'm looking for another full-time professional who is clean, easy-going and sociable.
If the flat sounds like a good fit, feel free to send me a message with a little bit about yourself!
