Set in Stoke Newington, with cafés, restaurants, parks and the Overground just moments away, it offers fast access into central London.

About This Lister

We’re a creative family of three (four including Nova - our beloved pup), currently looking to sublet our much-loved home in Stoke Newington, London while we’re away.

I’m a documentary filmmaker, so the house has been a place for reading, writing, editing, thinking and occasionally pacing around trying to solve impossible story problems.

My wife is a bass DJ and producer, so music is a big feature in our home. Our four-year-old daughter is rapidly becoming both a painter and a dancer, so the house has also hosted its fair share of art exhibitions and living-room performances.

We care a lot about the space and have put a great deal of love into making it feel calm, warm and welcoming. It’s a family home rather than an anonymous rental, so we’re hoping to find like-minded people who will enjoy it, look after it, and treat it with the same care.

We’re tidy, considerate and friendly, and have a good relationship with our neighbours. We’ll be the main contact for whoever sublets the house and will make sure everything is clear, straightforward and well organised.

My pronouns are he/him.
