I take great care to make sure all tenants are nice and considerate and introduce all new tenants to existing ones to check they will all get along well. Harmony between housemates is important to me. If you want to contact them to find out what it's like (and if I'm evil!) please ask and I will give you their contact details once I have the agreement of them I prefer the housemates not be unemployed - s and professionals are most welcome.

Willingness of landlord to make improvements and ability to fix anything that breaks as necessary - just ask, I'm only next door!

You just need to bring your personal items and you have everything you need to live there - all bills paid (gas, electric, water, council tax) - it's almost like a hotel, but I don't co or clean for you - nor charge you hotel rates!

I would happily live there - if I didn't have my own home already!

We are within 5-10 minutes walk of the Metrolink to Manchester City centre, Bury and Altrincham. Many buses come and go from the large hospital almost opposite us. Several convenience stores at the end of the road and otherwise nearby have extended opening hours. Tesco supermarket (15 mins walk) is open 24hours. There is a sports centre (swimming, gym etc), library and college nearby. Hairdressers, chemists, doctors all within minutes walk.

The house may not be in a happening, fashionable area nor designed by a famous architect in the latest avant-garde style, but it is a solid, dependable Victorian terraced house that comes with everything you need to live, is comfortable, well maintained, newly decorated and has a new bathroom, nearly new kitchen etc, etc.

I do my best to make it a home from home for you! The house is foreigner-friendly, gay-friendly... - actually simply friendly towards any friendly people!

TRANSPORT CONNECTIONS

METROLINK £2-£3 for a ticket depending on single or return, on or off peak (busy times) 7 minutes walk from the house - Manchester Centre (Piccadilly) <--> Crumpsall Station. Every 6 minutes (evenings 12 minutes): 15 minutes - Bury <--> Crumpsall Station. Every 6 minutes (evenings 12 minutes): 15 minutes

BUS week ticket £17 - No.89: Manchester Centre (Shude Hill)<--> North Manchester General Hospital (1 minute from the house): 25 minutes - No.149: Manchester Centre (Piccadilly) <--> North Manchester General Hospital (1 minute from the house): 25 minutes - No.135 & 59: Manchester Centre (Piccadilly) <--> Cheetham Hill (15 minutes from the house): 20 minutes

TAXIS / MINICABS (eg: Cresta Cars, Ekko Cars, Blueline, Alpha Cars, Academy Taxis) Minicabs are much cheaper (1/2 price) than the world famous black cabs. Both are licenced, but mini cabs are normal cars that can only be ordered by phone and waited for, whereas black cabs can be stopped in the street. House <--> City Centre, 10 minutes, Minicab: ~£7, Black Cab: £15 House <--> M/cr Airport, 30 minutes, Minicab: ~£20 (fixed charge), Black Cab: £40 (on meter - so more if you are in traffic jam) If you fly into Manchester's airport it is much cheaper to phone a minicab (while you are waiting for your baggage) and wait 20 minutes for it to come to you, than take a black cab to us.

TRAINS Buying a train ticket at the station just when you want to travel is very expensive. Try not to do this. Instead buy it in advance from a website like .thetrainline., even if you do this just a few hours before you are due to travel. A train from Manchester to London and return can cost £30 - £100 depending if you buy at the last minute and go during busy times ofr not. First Class is even more expensive. Trains in Britain can be crowded, not so punctual and very expensive at busy times. If you buy your ticket in advance and at less busy times you will save a lot of money

COACHES Coaches are much, much cheaper than trains. Ordered in advance at non busy times a return ticket can cost as little as £12 But the trip will take 6-8 hours and involve a stop in Birmingham of 30 minutes to 2 hours

PLANES Manchester is not a low cost airport. Liverpool and Leeds are low cost with bus connections to Manchester. You can get a train from Manchester Airport to the centre of Manchester (Picadilly train station) where you can get a Metrolink (from Picadilly train station) or Bus (2 minutes walk from the train station - Picadilly Gardens) to us. Budget Airlines all fly from local airports

LEGAL REQUIREMENTS

2 weeks' rent as deposit (3 weeks for rooms with en-suite bathrooms) 1 week's rent in advance Copy of your passport or other photo ID You sign an agreement with me for the room (requiring 2 week's notice to quit)

You pay me rent weekly, in cash, on Monday (no UK bank account required)

No bonds, guarantees, references, credit checks or excessive deposits. You will be living in what is effectively my home (I live next door, but the houses are connected) and I will be in and out the house regularly to check there are no problems - so preventing problems and so I require less securities.

Sounds Good? Let me know.

Andrew
