The room:
This ad is for a furnished double room with access to your own bathroom in a well-located flat in Tollcross, and is available from the middle of August. The room overlooks a shared garden and is furnished with a double bed, built-in wardrobe, desk, bookcase, and bedside table. The layout of the room can be adjusted to suit your preferences.
Cost:
Rent for the room is £700 per month, and bills are estimated at approximately £150-£170 per month, including Council Tax band D, internet, electricity, and gas.
The flat:
The flat itself is located on the first floor of the building with both stair and lift access. It features an open-plan kitchen/living room equipped with modern appliances, including a gas hob, electric oven, and dishwasher.
A washing machine and tumble dryer are also available in the flat, although line drying is preferred.
While the flat has one allocated underground parking space, it is currently occupied. Limited on-street permit parking is available.
The area:
Tollcross is a great location with excellent public transport connections. Princes Street and Haymarket Station are within a 15-minute walk, and numerous bus stops are located nearby.
The area boasts a wide range of amenities, including shops such as Tesco, Sainsbury's, Co-op, and Scotmid, as well as Meadows Park, Bruntsfield Links, cinemas, cafes, bars, and restaurants.
About me:
I am a 32-year-old data scientist who works from home full-time, with occasional travel for work. Therefore I'm looking for someone who doesn't work from home full-time.
I enjoy a variety of hobbies, including tag rugby, gym, sports, board games, movies, and the occasional drink.
I like having the flat as a place to relax after a day of work, and I am looking for a sociable and tidy housemate who values a clean and respectful living environment.
I look forward to hearing from you.
