A lovely calm, light and bright double room, with south facing aspect overlooking the garden in my small but perfectly formed 2 bed Victorian cottage terrace in Croydon.
Sharing with me, the owner, a single 35 yr old female creative project manager (currently working in illustration/animation). I love meeting new people and sharing my home. I work from home 3 days a week (from the dining room) and tend to be out and about regularly in the evenings. I can be found watching Netflix and sipping a glass of red wine at least 2 nights in the week.
I would consider myself creative and in my spare time enjoy crafting, DIY, singing in an acapella choir, playing ukelele, cooking, gardening and vegging out on the sofa.
Local area:
12-15 minute walk from East Croydon station, with trains to London Bridge and Victoria in as quick as 12 minutes
10 minute walk to Croydon’s Fairfield Halls
5 minute walk to the start of Croydon high street full of shops, eateries and amenities to the north and south Croydon food quarter to the south.
Various tram stops and west croydon overground station also in close walking proximity.
And for non walkers a bus stop is less than 5 minutes away.
The bedroom is situated upstairs and comes equipped with double bed, bedding and towels, a chest of drawers, side table and built in wardrobes.
Guest will have full access to all shared areas including downstairs bathroom with rainfall shower and full size bath, kitchen with double oven, gas hob and all the usual amenities and utensils (I love to cook!), a dining space that easily seats 4-6 people which doubles up as my work from home office 3 days a week, a separate living room with corner sofa, armchair and TV with access to Netflix, Amazon Prime, Now TV and Disney+ and a sunny, secluded decked garden with outdoor sofa, dining table and lots of potted plants.
I am of the mindset that ‘mi casa, su casa’ and am happy for guests to interact with me as much or as little as they like. I’d prefer those who are clean, tidy and respectful and are of the mindset that you get out of life what you put into it.
I do not own a cat but I inherited cat flaps with the property and have cat sit for friends so cat owners would be welcome, providing they’re happy to run the hoover round 😊 also happy to accept other types of guest - please message me to check.
Paid street parking is available via the RingGo app, it is by no means impossible but the central Croydon zone is busy and comes with restrictions so please check these prior. I get special rates for guests, but can only have one guest at a time so we can communicate depending on the dates and times. Utilising public transport is advised.
Ask me anything, I’m very happy to set boundaries and negotiate house rules collaboratively with guests. My main expectations would be:
- open communication to avoid unnecessary awkwardness
- to request permission before any additional guests stay
- smoking outside only in the garden or front yard (ashtray provided!)
Looking forward to hosting you and meeting some new creative connections!
