Room to rent Stanstead Road, Greater London

Description

A bright and spacious double room is available in Forest Hill / Honor Oak Park, with a friendly cat named Thomas who will occasionally need access to the sun in your room. The room is fully furnished, measuring 3.3m x 4.5m, and includes a double bed with storage, chest of drawers, side table, double oak wardrobe, large desk, and office chair. It features ample natural light, a green and relaxing view, and a Juliette balcony that can be fully opened. The flat is on the top floor of a Victorian property and includes a sitting room with sofas and a dining table, high ceilings, a fireplace, a well-equipped separate kitchen with all necessary appliances and equipment, a bathroom with good shower pressure, fast fibre WiFi, and a Smart TV with Netflix. There is a shared garden with a small vegetable patch, currently being converted to clover and wildflowers. The area offers numerous parks, hilltop viewpoints, and convenient access to shops, gyms, cafes, restaurants, a medical centre, and a pharmacy. Transport links are excellent, with four stations within a 15-minute walk (Honor Oak Park, Forest Hill, Catford, and Catford Bridge), and two bus routes (185 and 171/N171) stopping two minutes away. The flat is in Zone 3, with a short bus ride to Zone 2. Parking is available on the property or free on neighboring streets. The current tenant has lived here for 7 years and is leaving to start a new job. The owner, a friendly 51-year-old, enjoys exploring London, coffee, pubs, reading, walking, restaurants, gigs, and generally being out and about. They travel frequently, so the tenant will often have the place to themselves. The ideal tenant is a non-smoker, likes cats, is happy to live alone for part of the year, and does not regularly have many visitors staying. A minimum term of 6 months is preferred, with availability from October 15th, 2026. All bills and council tax are included in the £950 rent.
