Description

A furnished double room is available in a shared Tooting flat from 1 December. It includes a double bed with bed frame and mattress, plus a built-in wardrobe. The bathroom is shared with one other flatmate.

The household includes Mia, Sofia and James, who work in the music, fashion and film industries. The flat has a shared living room and kitchen, a washing machine and dryer, and is semi-furnished overall. It is a sociable, homely home that respects personal space and is not a party house. The property is managed by Foxtons, with direct contact with the landlord. No deposit is required, but one month’s rent is payable in advance.

The flat is in Tooting, near Tooting Common and the lido. Tooting Bec and Tooting Broadway stations are each around an 18-minute walk away on the Northern line. Tooting Broadway Market, local supermarkets, shops, gyms and other amenities are nearby. Bills are approximately £100–£110 per month and include council tax, energy, BT WiFi and Thames Water. The household is looking for a clean, considerate girl, ideally employed full-time and interested in staying long term.

Frequently Asked Questions

Use the message button on the listing to introduce yourself to the room lister. Messaging is free. With Membership you see new rooms during their first hours thanks to Early Bird access, and alerts reach you within minutes. A good first message says who you are, when you want to move in, how long you plan to stay, and one or two things about your lifestyle that match the listing.
Look for the Verified badge on the profile, it means the room lister has completed identity verification. Read the full listing, check the lifestyle preferences on each existing flatmate's profile, and review the photos of the room and shared spaces. Always arrange a viewing in person or by video call before sending any money, and never pay a deposit or holding fee before you have signed a tenancy agreement.
Yes, we strongly recommend it. Ask the room lister for a viewing in person, or for a live video tour if you are out of town. Use the viewing to meet the existing flatmates and ask about bills, house rules, and the rest of the household. A genuine room lister will always offer some form of viewing.
The listing shows the monthly rent and whether bills are included. Where bills are included, this usually covers utilities and internet. Confirm with the room lister exactly what is and is not included, and whether there is a deposit, a holding fee, or any agency fees on top.
You and the room lister agree on a move-in date and sign a tenancy agreement directly, the same way you would on any other room-share platform. Dwelles is a marketplace that connects you. The contract, deposit protection, and reference checks remain between you and the room lister. If anything looks suspicious, report the listing and stop communicating. In the UK you can also report scams to Action Fraud at actionfraud.police.uk. In Ireland, report them to your local Garda station.
