Room in a Shared Flat, Filey Avenue, N16
- 2 bedrooms
- 1 bathrooms
- London
Looking for someone who enjoys a calm, friendly home in Stoke Newington — relaxed, respectful and genuinely easy to share. Someone who’s up for a chat or a glass of wine, but equally appreciates quiet evenings doing their own thing. (No compulsory post‑work debriefs — unless you want one.)
The Room
• Large double bedroom with plenty of space for a bed, desk and storage
• Wardrobe included
• Bright and airy, facing a quiet residential street
• Loads of scope to make it feel like your own space
The Flat
• Two‑bedroom flat in Stoke Newington, perfectly placed between Stokey & Clapton Overground, with parks, cafés and buses everywhere
• Cosy living room with a dining table
• Modern(ish) kitchen with beautiful natural light — ideal for morning coffee or weekend pottering
• Fully furnished apart from your room
• Warm, easygoing vibe — the flat stays clean and comfortable because we’re adults, not because a rota is stapled to the fridge
About Me
• I’m Alice 🙋♀️ — firmly in my 30s and thriving
• Work in Soho; mostly in the office, one WFH day a week
• Into books, music, politics, big walks, theatre, galleries, pub gardens and the occasional Sunday spent horizontal watching something terrible
• Friendly, respectful and very easy to live with — nearly a decade of flat‑sharing has taught me the art of “kitchen chat” and “silent parallel living”
• Excellent at sharing a glass of wine, equally excellent at disappearing into my room like a Victorian ghost when needed
• Zero judgement on takeaway habits, life choices, or what time you emerge on weekends (if at all)
• Sociable, warm and fun — but also very respectful of space and downtime
About You
• Professional 35+
• Considerate and tidy in the normal adult way — you clean because you noticed something needed doing, not because a rota assigned you “Hob Duty Week 3”
• Pays bills on time
• Likes a balance of sociable moments and independent downtime
• Wants a home, not a crash pad
• No couples or pets — the flat just isn’t set up for it
Bills
• £230–£280 per month each, depending on the season
• Includes council tax, gas, water, electricity, TV/internet and shared basics like loo roll, cleaning products and olive oil
• Everything is split evenly and kept straightforward — no forensic investigations into who finished the washing‑up liquid
Rent & Deposit
• Rent: £1,107.50 per month
• Deposit: £1,250
