Me and the boyf went to view a couple of flats last night. The first was a studio flat in a new development. I was expecting it to be small, however, not quite as small as it turned out to be. It was basically a square room with a bathroom built into one corner and kitchen units along one wall. I reckon I’d have no problem fitting my clothes into the place, however I wouldn’t be able to fit me in it at the same time. It was about the same size as a large walk in wardrobe…
The second place I saw was far better, although about 5 flights up a narrow staircase – good fun with a bike on your shoulder. The flat itself was light and airy and a good size, the location was also good, right in the middle of a vibrant and tendy North London suburb. It’s a lovely grown up type of place. The good news is that I have just spoken to the agent and the landlady has accepted my proposal for a slightly lower rent than advertised.
