Lovely freshly redecorated double ensuite room with newly fitted shower room and kitchenette (kettle, toaster, mini fridge) – ideal for breakfast or late night snacking) in centrally heated, double-glazed, 6 bedroom, Victorian house, with BT top of range domestic broadband. Large landscaped garden, with terraces and balcony. Ideally located in Zone 2, the house is 3 minutes walk from Lewisham rail, DLR and bus station, with its frequent, rapid connections to Charing Cross, Cannon St, Victoria, London Bridge, Waterloo, Bank, Docklands, Tower, and City Airport and 3 minutes walk in the opposite direction onto Blackheath. An on street parking permit can be purchased..

The room is 4. 5m by 4. 4m, furnished in oak and pine, and includes an ensuite shower, toilet, and washbasin, and a kettle, toaster, mini-fridge, and kitchen area. You share a large kitchen-diner, laundry (Bosch washing machine and Miele tumble dryer), and the garden. You will need to provide your own bedding and towels.

A major Tesco is 2 mins walk, Lewisham centre is 5 mins walk for high street shops, a traditional outdoor market, and a leisure centre with pool, gym, and indoor climbing. Blackheath and Greenwich villages and Greenwich Picturehouse are 15-20 mins walk.

We keep sociable hours, are quiet, friendly, and tidy, with interests in cooking, outdoors activities, meditation, reading and cinema. The size of the house and the small number of occupants provide personal privacy, which we value, and our location is very secure. One of us is an academic and writer and the other is an editor turned gardener. We enjoy friends’ company but we are not party people. Our ideal housemate is someone who does not work from home and who enjoys our kind of quiet, peaceful life.

Please note the advertised price is for a Monday to Friday let. We are willing to consider a full-time let for the right person at a price of £900 ppm inclusive.
