A private room for one person. If you're looking for a serene atmosphere where you can study or work at home.

The flat is 800 sqft, the room is 140 sqft. You can reach almost anything within walking distance. There are also two very close parks to spend time.

The flat has two independent rooms, shared living room, shared bathroom and shared kitchen. You'll only share with me.

The kitchen is equipped with mini fridge, induction cooktop, pop-up toaster, toaster press, smoothie blender, food processor, tea machine, coffee machine, electric oven, steam cooker and other kithchenware. I find microwaves detrimental to health, so I've chosen not to keep one. Black tea, herbal tea, coffee beans and capsule coffee are provided.
