Anna's room

Haringey, England N22 5AU

This is a beautiful, full of character, clean, light and airy first-floor, two bedroom maisonette flat in Bowes Park area (Haringay council).

Our road is a peaceful, tree-lined street, tucked away from the hustle and bustle of Green Lanes, yet a short distance away from Wood Green underground station, Bounds Green underground station or Bowes Park train station. The nearby area is very cute, with many independent shops, restaurants and amenities.

The room on offer (Bedroom 2) is facing South and has a view of the back gardens. It is partly furnished; with a bed frame (and you would need to buy your own mattress), a beautiful wooden closet and one of the black bookcases that are currently shown in the livingroom. The dressing table shown in the picture will be removed, so you could replace it with a small desk if you wanted. The bed slats that are shown to be missing in the pictures will also be replaced and curtains will also be put). We could perhaps rearrange any of the other pieces of furniture around the house to suit your needs. If you prefer your room to be unfurnished, this is also possible.

There’s also a very handy small utility room (Bedroom 3) with a clothes hanger and shelves to store suitcases, coats, extra shoes e. t. c.

There’s a beautiful shared livingroom, - where l will working 3 days per week (during normal working hours), so it’s best if you are not working from home, or only occasionally (max one day per week). One of the black bookcases is being removed and the second will go in your room, so only two bookcases will remain, which will create some space for a sofa bed.

The kitchen has all amenities, including a table and a brand new fridge/freezer.

We also have a beautiful, south-facing private garden, accessible via a staircase.

You’ll be sharing the flat with me, who will also be moving in shortly. I am an editor working for a Biology journal in a big publishing house with a PhD in Molecular Biology and research experience. I go to the office twice a week (at not set days) and l am often away (every 1.5-2 months), for work or visiting family, so you’ll have the flat for yourself frequently.

Other than that l enjoy listening to music, taking pictures of people and situations and some times I scratch my violin. Sometimes I also make arty things at home or as part of a course, and in the weekends l am out and about, with friends or alone, going for coffee, visiting markets, exhibitions, events, gigs, e.t.c.

I am friendly and discreet. Generally happy chatting over cooking a meal and sharing the occasional glass of wine. I am interested in many things, and will look to find common ground for discussions. I also value my privacy and will respect yours.

Finally, I enjoy a clean and tidy home, especially in the kitchen and bathroom, so looking for similar people who will be cleaning after themselves. I like an uncluttered home, where people clean up after themselves and everyone feels comfortable.

Looking forward to hearing from you.
