Double room with ensuite, in Westferry

Large double room (single occupancy only), with ensuite, in modern, spacious (1700 sq. ft.), part furnished, luxury flatshare. Wood flooring, white-washed walls. 1 modern shared bathroom (and the 2 ensuites) and an open-plan lounge / dining room / kitchen (fully fitted with all mod cons). Lots of storage in the flat.

Great transport links. Very close to Westferry Station (DLR, all lines into Bank and Tower Gateway / 5-10 min walk), Mile End (Central, District and Hammersmith & City lines / 15 min walk or short bus ride) and Canary Wharf (Elizabeth line / 10 min walk, Jubilee Line / 20 min walk or short bus ride). Situated just off Burdett Road / Commercial Road, with great amenities in the local area: pubs, restaurants, parks, canals, the river, leisure centres, supermarkets and a handy Royal Mail office, all within 5 minutes or so walk. All the facilities of Canary Wharf are also within an easy walk: bars, restaurants, gyms and a cinema.

Rent includes council tax, water, phone line rental, broadband and TV license. Gas and electricity are extra, according to flat usage. We can also discuss splitting the cost of a cleaner. Good references and clear UK credit history required.

Flexible availability, but the room is ready for occupancy after a complete flat refurbishment. Looking for tidy, considerate but sociable professionals. Sorry - no couples, no smokers, and no agents or landlord services.

Current flatmates:

Hi there! I’m Julia - 24 from Poland. I'm quite career focused, but also naturally social and enjoy conversations, occasional shared meals, night out or a relaxed evening with flatmates. I’d describe myself as easygoing, responsible, tidy and respectful of others space and time. Definitely someone who appreciates a friendly, comfortable home environment where everyone feels at ease. :)

Hi! I’m Rey, a returning MSc student in London, Filipino, with previous finance experience in Dubai and back home. Pretty laid-back and respectful. I enjoy volleyball, baking, and the occasional chill hang with flatmates. Looking for a relaxed, friendly, and open-minded home.

I’m Sydney, a 21‑year‑old teaching assistant based in East London. I am an easygoing, friendly person who spends my downtime gaming or catching up with friends at the pub. I’m tidy, considerate, and enjoy a sociable home where everyone feels comfortable. I appreciate a relaxed, respectful atmosphere and love living with people who enjoy the occasional shared meal or chilled evening together.

All that was the good news. Here's the bad news: I'm the live-in landlord. I'm 52, Sri Lankan-born, norf Landan-bred, and work in the City. I have a couple of rooms and a bathroom downstairs in an annex. It's not completely self-contained, so I will be sharing the communal facilities. But I live part-time on the south coast and, when I am in London, I'm often in the office during the day, and out with friends after work. I know it's not ideal living with a landlord, but 1. I'm not that kind of landlord (I still hang out with some of my ex-tenants at the local pub, so I can provide references!), 2. I won't always be around, 3. It means that any maintenance gets done quickly, and well, as I also live here
