Two double rooms available on Crystal Palace Road (houseshare) ?380PCM


Dreamcatcher

Recommended Posts

We have a ground floor room available in our shared house from 9th January and a top floor room from 1st Feb. We are all professionals and are ideally looking for a fellow professional to join us.


Rent is ?380 per calendar month, bills come to about ?100 per month each.


There are three of us (3 females) plus the 2 new people (5 in total) . We each have a room and have individual contracts with the private landlord, but we share the living room, kitchen, shower room and upstairs bathroom. We also have a large garden.


We are well placed for public transport being 15 minutes walk from East Dulwich station where national rail runs into London Bridge (approx 15 minutes journey time). In the opposite direction Wimbledon and Croydon are about 25 minutes away.


We're about 20 minutes walk to Peckham Rye station where the London Overground and national rail runs into London.


Peckham Rye Park is 5 minutes walk away and there are several buses that go into different parts of London from round about (185,176,40,63,12,78).


Lordship Lane is the next road over and there are numerous pubs and restaurants within easy walking distance. There is a Co-Op and Sainsbury nearby, with a Marks and Spencer due to open very soon. Just opposite is the council run gym and swimming pool, and the cinema is also just round the corner.


We are looking for two individual people to join as there is not quite enough room for a couple and that person would look to view the house as their home, rather than just a room. We have a cleaner each Saturday but do our own washing up in the week. We like to keep tidy and not let things build up, but the odd bowl or cup being left overnight doesn't bother anyone.


We are all friendly and will watch TV in the evenings and occasionally cook for each other too. We enjoy going out for food, the pub or pub quizzes, although our working schedules mean we don't do it as often as we'd like to. However, we all have our own friends in London and live separate lives too. The only big 'no' is that we can't have pets in the house.


If you are easy going, considerate and friendly you'd be the ideal flatmate.

    • The fact everyone has had a CCTV camera in their pockets for the last 15+ years has done a huge amount to prevent and mitigate random drunken violence.  Thugs can't get away with what they used to anymore.
    • Do you mean that there are only very few trades people and that all of their thousands of happy customers post glowing reviews but most of them have only ever posted once to recommend said trade person on the trade person's own thread?   If so, I agree it's mysterious.  
    • Oh now you're coming over all defensive. What happened to the nice Sue, because since the early part of the year your approach seems to have changed and you've become much more challenging. No you have not broken any rules and even if you had why would I involve Admin, that's a ludicrous thing to say.  Take care Sue. 
    • I was the opposite of you. I never felt particularly happy around Brixton late at night - I didn't know it that well. Do you remember the name of the late- night Irish pub opposite the railway arches near the BR station? Was it Mulligan's? Brannigan's? To be fair, until the East London Line extension, Rye Lane walking south wasn't a favourite of mine after dark either. The only pub left on there was The Hope, which was in the other direction. It felt very bleak. I think that makes a huge difference. When The Gowlett was boarded up, Amott Road felt very different. It's like a beacon now. Pub violence does seem to have had its day in inner London. Maybe it's a result of the disappearance of pool tables, flat-roofed pubs and cheap Stella offers. I bet you could still find a Saturday night kick-up in New Addington or the  Becontree estate in Dagenham. Definitely. Pubs next to stations, kebab shops and ironically named nightclubs are all to be avoided in smaller places. The weirdest place I've ever had random trouble was in a club in St. Ives in Cambridgeshire.  I think it was called 'Options'. It was the only club there.  See also 'Jekylls' nightclub in Hyde, Manchester - a truly dreadful place where getting thrown out for fighting was infinitely preferable to spending the evening in there and coming out stinking of stale chip fat. I took a kicking in 'Kingsway Kebabs' in Swansea after a night in 'The Aviary' (so named because it was 'full of birds') nightclub. But that wasn't so random. It was a local girl, who gave me a leathering because I'd run off for a large chicken doner, rather than dance with her to 'Criticize' by Alexander O'Neal. Sorry, Sue, I've digressed a little.  To answer your question, I think London feels relatively safe overall.
