Double room to rent in charming Kennington flat
We have a small double bedroom to rent in a beautiful character flat in Kennington (Zone 1).
The room has a double bed, a wardrobe, a chest of drawers and a great view, plus it looks over the mews so you won't hear any of the noise from the main road. I'll put up photos once my flatmate sends them to me.
There is also a shared living room and kitchen which are both really big considering the location. Both are furnished and we have a nice TV, games consoles, DVDs etc. so it's a good room to hang out in. The kitchen is fully equipped with an oven, fridge, washing machine, kettle etc. and we have plenty of plates and cutlery if you don't have your own. There's a shared bathroom between the bedrooms with a bath/shower which works really well, plenty of hot water and good water pressure which is always a bonus.
The flat is located down a mews just off a small high street with a few shops and lots of great restaurants. We're a five minute walk to Kennington tube on the Northern line, as well as being walking distance to Vauxhall, Lambeth North, Elephant and Castle, Oval and Waterloo stations and several night buses stop right outside the flat. A large Tesco is also a couple of minutes walk away and the area is full of great pubs, parks and leafy streets. The location is perfect for summer with a load of great spots within a twenty minute walk like the Southbank, Big Ben, Borough Market, the Thames and the London Eye.
You'll be sharing the flat with my boyfriend and I, he's a mature music technology student at Kingston and I work in a bar and sometimes attempt to be a freelance writer. We're friendly and reliable flatmates and are looking for someone similar who's going to be clean and tidy and easy to get on with. Ideally we're after someone who works full time and has their own stuff going on but who's up for the occasional drink too. If you like football, mario kart, baking or bad 90's movies then you'll fit right in.
References will be required and there is a security deposit, I'm pretty sure it's six weeks rent but I'll update this once I've checked with the landlord. Bills aren't included but so far haven't been bad at all and if you drive the permit parking by the flat is really reasonable too. The room will be available from the 9th of May but that date can be flexible if it needs to be.
