About the room
For Rent: Spacious Unfurnished Room in Shared 2-Bedroom Apartment Looking for a responsible, tidy, and considerate individual to share a comfortable two-bedroom apartment in a well-maintained building. The available room is unfurnished, giving you the freedom to create your own space. The Setup: • Shared bathroom, kitchen, and dining area • Rent includes: Water and Wi-Fi (all inclusive!) • Electricity top-up: We alternate paying R500 each when the prepaid meter needs replenishing Building Perks: • On-site gym- stay fit without the travel • Rooftop braai facility- perfect for sunny weekends and occasional socialising
The Ideal Housemate (Please read carefully): I’m looking for one person only-no couples, no overnight guests staying over regularly, and no hosting of large gatherings or frequent friend visits. This is a quiet, study/work-friendly home, not a social hub. You are: • Clean and hygienic- you wash your own dishes promptly, keep the bathroom tidy after use, and don’t leave mess behind • Respectful of shared spaces- you understand that the kitchen, dining area, and bathroom are common zones that need constant care • Quiet and private- you value peace and low noise levels, especially during evenings and early mornings • Financially reliable- you pay your rent on time, every time, without reminders or delays Cleaning Arrangement (Non-Negotiable): • Cleaning of common areas (kitchen, dining, bathroom, and living space) is done alternately between us • Thorough cleaning is expected – this means mopping, wiping surfaces, cleaning the toilet and basin, taking out rubbish, and keeping the space spotless • If you or I are unable to do our share of deep cleaning, we will split the cost of a hired cleaning service to ensure the home stays pristine
The Location: Perfectly positioned for convenience: • Just 2 km from Groote Schuur Hospital and the UCT Medical Campus • Close to the main road with easy access to public transport, shops, and daily essentials • 9.1 km from Cavendish Square in Claremont- quick drive or taxi ride away • Street parking available right outside
Rent: R8,000.00 per month (all-inclusive- water, Wi-Fi) Electricity rotation: R500 each when we top up Available: 01 August 2026 Deposit: R8,000.00 Serious inquiries only. If this sounds like the right fit for you, please send me a message introducing yourself- tell me a bit about your daily routine, work/study schedule, and why you’d be a great match for this home.
About the roomies
I’m a PhD student and I value a calm, orderly home environment. My days are usually busy-I’m out during the day for research and often spend my evenings catching up on reading, or unwinding quietly. I’m not a party person, and I don’t have loud social gatherings at home. I’m tidy by nature-I clean up after myself immediately, respect shared spaces, and stick to routines that keep the apartment running smoothly. I believe good communication makes co-living easy, so I’m always open to discussing schedules, cleaning, or any household matters upfront. In my free time, I enjoy hiking or binge-watching anime. I’m friendly but also respect privacy and personal space-so you’ll never feel crowded or pressured to socialise. I’m looking for a housemate who shares these same values-someone reliable, clean, and considerate. If that sounds like you, we’ll get along just fine!
