Room for rent in

Cambridge

CB1 3PR

I’m looking for a housemate to share a lovely semi-detached house with private garden in a quiet area of Cambridge, about a 15-minute walk from the station. The house has a surface area of about 70m2 with two bedrooms and a bathroom (shower-over-bath) on the first floor, and a large kitchen and living room on the ground floor. In front of the house there’s a driveway and a side gate to the private back garden, where bikes can be stored safely. The garden is one of the highlights for me. As you can see from the pictures, it even has a fig tree, veg patch and greenhouse.

Rent includes council tax, internet, water and energy (estimated cost). If the energy cost increases significantly after you move in, I will need to adjust the rent accordingly. I’m on a fixed tariff, so the cost would only increase if consumption increases.

As for me, I’m a 38-year-old female who just finished her PhD and am working from home as a freelancer while figuring out my next steps. I’m clean and tidy, don’t smoke, rarely drink, and am quiet, considerate and easy-going. I enjoy social brunches and dinner parties, but can also go without talking to anyone for days if I’m immersed in a project or working on a tight deadline. I’m a reducetarian/flexivore but don’t mind living with omnivores as long as they’re careful when handling raw meat and fish. My interests/sports/hobbies include running, cycling, hiking, swimming, dancing, music, scifi/fantasy and improving my self-taught web development, automation and data science skills. Huge plus if you’re into free and open source software, open data, open science and/or open tech, and if you care about the future of humanity, global catastrophic risks, animal welfare, global inequality, SDGs and human rights. I love having deep conversations about any of these topics.
