Looking for someone to take over my room in a bright and spacious Leith apartment!
A lovely double room is available in a beautiful double-storey apartment in a quiet Leith neighbourhood, with a private balcony and access to a private communal garden.
The flat is ideally located within walking distance of Edinburgh’s vibrant Shore Area, and just a 5-minute walk from the Foot of the Walk tram stop, as well as Lidl, Aldi and Tesco superstores. The Water of Leith Walkway is only a 3-minute walk away—perfect for relaxing walks or outdoor exercise!
The flat will be shared only by two people—yourself and my current flatmate, William Haynes. He is a 24-year-old young professional, who is tidy, considerate and very pleasant to live with! Here’s a little bit more about him and the type of person he would like to live with:
Hello! My name is William, and I work part-time in retail after graduating from my post-graduate program last year. Originally from Texas, I’ve lived a few years here in Edinburgh. In my free time, I play the cello, find an excuse to be outdoors and love to cook. I hope to find someone in their early 20s who is tidy and enjoys a cosy environment, a place to rest and recover at the end of the day. Hope to meet you soon!
What’s included:
- A large, open-air balcony with panoramic views of the Edinburgh city skyline
- Access to a private, communal garden
- A recently refurbished kitchen with a brand new induction hob, oven, spacious refrigerator, and a new washing machine and tumble dryer
- The apartment was partly furnished when we moved in, so I bought my own bed and a filing cabinet for extra storage. The room can be taken over with these in place for an additional cost of only £200!
- Council tax band B, so you’d be paying £80.70 a month
- Gas & electricity is £50.50 per month
- Wifi is £14 per month
- Total cost of the flat per month works out at £795.20
Cosy but spacious with an abundance of natural light in all its rooms, a beautiful balcony to enjoy in the summer, and a gentle and considerate flatmate, this flat is perfect for a young professional or postgraduate student looking for a peaceful, well-connected home!
