Large double room available in a stunning 4 store

Large double room available in a stunning 4 storey grade II listed townhouse that’s just been fully renovated in a back to brick 18 month renovation.

The room is about 5m x 4m and has 2 large wooden sash windows that let in loads of light. The room has, like the rest of the house been beautiful renovated and comes with a stunning original marble period fireplace and a very comfy large wooden double bed. There is also a small chest of draws, clothes rail & some shelving etc. The room has been sound and thermally insulated to reduce noise and improve energy efficiency. The room also comes with a direct connection to the Ethernet/ wi-fi and sky TV.

Next to the room which is located on the 1st floor, there is a very large, beautiful, all-white bathroom with huge walk-in shower with a big sunflower shower drencher, body-jets and hand-set. There is also a roll-top period bath, a mirror-TV, a heated radiator, traditional window shutters, the usual toilet and sink plus a chandelier in the centre of the room. Upstairs on the top floor there are two further bedrooms which are let out to Chris who's 40 and runs a record label and katy who's an old friend and due to move in at start of March. She’s Chilean and in her early 30’s. There is also a loft with plenty of storage space.

On the ground floor we have a double aspect lounge with original exposed wooden floorboards and one original open fireplace and the other, a modern minamilist gas fire. There are also lots of other original features including big old wooden shutters and a big french door out the back that overlooks the courtyard / garden below. The room has a big LCD TV in it, with a home cinema system, Sky + HD and music system.

Whilst if we go down to the basement there is a massive kitchen / galley / diner with a tradional Rangemaster cooker, American style fridge-freezer, dish-washer, big wooden dining table, original exposed wooden beams, underfloor heating, open fireplaces and plenty of kitchen storage space. Then out the front under the street, we have converted the old coal cellars into a utility room with a microwave, washer-dryer and all the usual kitchen mod-cons. Then on either side of the utilty room you have a w/c with sink, which also double up for the sleeping quarters for our streets most famous resident: Floyd the Basset hound! Whilst on the other side of the cellars is a wet room.

Then if you head to the back of the house you have the large folding doors that open up the garden / yard out in the back where we put the hammock in the summer and the patio chairs/ tables, these sit harmoniously amongst the sunflowers, herbs and summer vegetables.

Throughout the property the house is fitted with ethernet connections, door intercom systems and a burglar alarm / CCTV system. The property has double glazing throughout with a modern very efficicent combi bolier for low heating bills and along with all the new energy efficient electrical appliances, the monthly bills are kept down.

The property is located just behind the popular Geffrye Museum and next to the new Hoxton Street train station which takes you north to Dalston or south directly into the city or down into S. London. Hoxton Square and Columbia Rd are both 5 mins walk away, whilst Broadway Market, Brick Lane and Old Street tube are 10-15 mins walk. Hoxton street station is 2 mins way while Liverpool street station is around 10 mins on the bus or a 20 min walk. For anyone less familiar with this area, in short the property is on the doorstep of some of London's best galleries, bars, clubs and weekend markets - A real hub of creativity and fun.

There are also loads of buses generally, which go down into the city, upto Dalston & beyond or over into the West End.

We are looking for someone who is clean and tidy, probably in their late 20’s+, who enjoys going out for a drink but is definitely not a party animal and likes dogs! They should also be responsible when it comes too bills & is happy to keep a tidy house.
We do have a cleaner who comes over once a week, but we all muck-in No smoking in the flat I’m afraid.

Rent is £800 per month plus bills, along with 6 weeks deposit. Avail 4th March '12.

No agencies thankyou.
