Hello! Very sad times are upon me as my lovely flatmate has decided to move onto greener pastures, hence I'm here looking for a new soul to share my abode with.

The flat is located right by the Holyrood/Parliament/Dynamic Earth/UoE gym, we even get a view of the crags from the living room. Very close to Cowgate and Newington for all your shopping/food/transport/entertainment needs, 10 minute walk to the train station/Princes Street. Pretty quiet, none of the neighbours ever have parties, so it's a really nice blend of chill while also being so central to old town. Decently sized kitchen with windows and plenty of cupboard space. Flat is split across 2 floors so bedrooms are upstairs.

•The new tenancy will start on the 9th of July.
•LGBTQ friendly & strongly preferred
•Don't mind smokers (we've got a porch 😊)
•Landlady will require proof of employment
•Students considered only with a guarantor unfortunately
•NO short-term

The bedroom comes with a bed, drawers, dresser, wardrobe and built-in shelves in a cupboard.

Rent £500
Council tax £88.50
Wifi £16.10
Electric appx. £75

About me:
I'm a pretty easy-going, introverted hospitality worker. Mostly into horror, film, arts&crafts, plants, but most of the time I just veg out 😂 I don't go out a lot tbh so I don't have people over very often, although I am trying to be more social haha. Always happy to have a chat/share a meal/watch a movie/go out together/play a boardgame or anything! But mind you most of the time my mind is blank and I ain't got much to say 😂

About you:
Best suited for someone mostly quiet and tidy enough (I'm not a clean freak at all but it would be great to stick to a cleaning rota 😁) looking for a peaceful place to come home to :)
