About occupants
Hi lm Steve, genuinely really happy person thats offering a share opportunity for another with a creative bent. for a nest in Preston, right near the Market, train and High st
Im an honest, reliable, creative, caring and very house proud person

A reader, that loves movies, very broad taste in music, and ALL the visual arts.

My work life is varied and creative.
Employed as vis merch a few days a week and also have my own business as wig stylist for medical as well as Fantastical clients, so the house often smells of hairspray..if scent bothers you, its just not going to work out.
Add to that costume design and construction, a desire to fill notebooks and get my hands dirty in the garden
l like to keep it busy in an active thinking kinda way tho l do very much like to lay on the grass and count clouds. Regularly.
Usually cook for myself, as l keep odd hours but always have extra as l never mastered the cooking for 1 thing.
Very chilled and easygoing, enjoy my creative solitude as well as bouncing ideas around with you.
Respect your desire for solitude too
There is space in the shed available to work or store stuff in, and also a smaller outdoor room that would lend itself to a writing room or art studio , meditation space

Love the furry friends, but l have 2 very much loved rescue chickens that roam around the backyard, so indoor cat or a super gentle dog are welcome,
Compatible people
You have a healthy happy attitude toward life and all its offerings
You're organised, both personally and professionally, a great communicator, broad minded and not a prude.
Clients occasionally visit the house, and its imperative that they feel they are in a safe space and free to express themselves authentically
If you're partial a costume epic, we're going to get along great

You clean up after yourself, and cool with a little creative chaos, tho l do tend to keep it contained, sometimes it spills over.
You pay rent bills on time, every time.
l have a great relationship with both the landlord and the realestate agents, been here 3 years and you'll be prepared to go on lease, and lease transfer fees after agent approval.
