vishal's room

Merton, England SW19 1TB

THE ROOM A proper double in a freshly refurbished house — everything new, nothing tired. Built-in wardrobe, extra drawers, ethernet and a TV point already in. Furnished or bare, your choice.

THE HOUSE Open-plan kitchen and living area, all appliances, decent cupboard space. Newly done bathroom. The real draw is the west-facing private patio — catches sun morning and evening, which in London is rarer than it should be. Good for an after-work glass of wine, a book, or just getting away from your screen.

LOCATION South Wimbledon (Northern line) is five minutes on foot. Wimbledon itself — District line, National Rail, Centre Court — is ten. Tesco and Sainsbury’s are nearby.

YOUR HOUSEMATE I’m a contractor, so I work from home most days and occasionally escape to a coffee shop when the walls close in. I cook, I’m tidy, and I like a post-work chat or garden sit as much as I like an evening to myself. Not a party house. More likely to have a gin and a good podcast going. I’ve shared with women for most of my adult life and prefer to keep it that way — genuinely easier dynamic, in my experience.
