This will give you insight into my home and a bit of hope that there are still some affordable options here in London for young professionals.

Nice place, great light throughout. I especially liked the kitchen. Hope you will enjoy your time there.
Thank you so much :)
The natural light is a big green tick
This is in no way meant in disrespect however it always surprises me what is considered 'large' in London. £830 without bills to share is a real shocker to me. Props to you.
No disrespect taken at all :)
The cost of living in London is wild - £830 elsewhere in England would for sure give more value for money.
Flat is okay but bathroom and kitchen sharing is not for everyone😢I could possible manage sharing a kitchen, but defiitely not the bathroom. I encouraged my daughter to stay home and save her deposit so she doesn't have to rent. Appreciate not everyone can do that. I would great struggle with the lack of privacy in a home share😢
I've typically had an ensuite when in shared accommodation but when moving to London I just couldn't justify the cost. I think at one stage I'd love to live on my own but for now this works for me. I would 100% encourage your daughter to stay at home as long as possible - Rent in London is wild.
@@estherbatu she did! And now just bought. Much better than renting but not all can buy with London prices.
@@imprsk6729 that’s super exciting and huge congratulations to her 😃
@@estherbatu thank you❤️
I've just moved out of London after 6 years because I couldn't afford the extortionate rent prices anymore. I was paying £1000 for a tiny studio in zone 5. I was wondering where was that bargain until you mentioned you're sharing 😅 Lovely place
London prices are crazy :(
Feel lucky with my bargain
I do sometimes wonder if I would live long term in London - where do you recommend as good alternatives outside of London?
@@estherbatu I was in a crossroads to be honest with you. London has a lot of opportunities but having a good quality of life is one of my top priorities and that's something the city is lacking imo. I was also not getting any value for money especially since I was living on my own. Unfortunately London forces you to live like a student for longer than expected and personally I couldn't do that any longer.
I'm Spanish so I decided to come back home and have a summer break. I feel like I'm not done with the UK yet but if I am to go back I would probably choose a smaller/"cheaper" city.
This not one size fits all though, some people do enjoy the hustle and bustle and are fine with sharing (especially if you live with friends/people you get on with). I guess it's a matter of priorities or what stage you're in your life.
Sorry for the brick 😂
Summer in Spain that sounds like a dream. I’ve lived in lots of areas in the UK and London definitely feels like the least value for money. I’ve heard good things about our Manchester so I have my eye on it🫣
@@estherbatu I visited Birmingham and Nottingham before I left in May and they don't seem like a bad option either. Which other areas in the UK did you live in? I'm curious since I only lived in London and didn't get to experience much of the rest of the UK.
Your apartment is so cute! Love the tile in the hallway and the kitchen ☺️
Aww thanks so much - I feel lucky to have this flat🥰
I was going to say £830 in London send me the landlords number 😂😂😂
A part of me is like, so long as prices don’t creep up I think I could be here a while 🤩
You have a very nice flow and clear voice. Keep it up.
Thank you - I really appreciate the feedback :)
It's very cute. London rents arewild atm, so I feel like that's a pretty good price for somewhere nice in London.
Ahhh thanks ☺️ - I really like this flat I feel very fortunate for the amount of space I get as I’ve seen people have a lot less for a lot more money…
That's almost R20k in SA Rands....I would be paying a bond for a decent house in a decent surbab
Is this my sign to move to South Africa😝
As you have a free standing radiator in your bedroom does that mean that there's no central heating?
Oh no I have central heating through the flat 😝 but like to have a free standing one as well for days I don’t want to put on the full system.
I’ve lived in a place that had rubbish central heating so always had my free standing heater for emergencies.
So do you share the kitchen and bathroom with your flatmate?
I do indeed :)
Just found your channel and your Style is very chilled,and btw your teeth are Fab i have deep envy...Thanks..
Aww thank you - I have my orthodontist to thank but wish I continued wearing my retainers, there has definitely been some teeth movement post braces :(
830 per person - now I understand. 😊 but it is wonderful.
Which part of South London is it, may I ask?
I’m keeping the location vague at the moment to protect my safety but if I ever move out the area I’d be open to sharing more ☺️
@@estherbatu Very wise. Too many fruitcakes around
A bit click baity
Where in London for under a grand? I gotta see this or is it council
The flat is rented from a private landlord. When I eventually leave the flat I will share location details but for now not sharing that for safety reasons :)
@@estherbatu totally understand that hun But WOW!! You got the deal of century lol I had to move to west midlands for that
@@S0.3 I hoping the landlord keeps the price the same for next years renewal... pray for me haha
@@estherbatu Genuinely said a prayer for us both 🙏🏾
@@S0.3 I love this - I’m feeling blessed already. Girl I’ll be you praying for you too!
Give her a year and she will be givena council flat
Such an odd comment...
Highly doubt I'll be 'given a council flat'...drop a comment in a years time and I'll let you know how I'm doing xoxo
@@estherbatu diamondbuzz clearly doesn't know how it works. For one they don't give council properties to people who haven't even requested one, and two - there are desperate families on the waiting list for years, living in dire conditions who still can't get one. But they think you'll be 'given' one in a year - strange logic.
@@estherbatu They said this as a dis. People like them think that all non whites have easy access council properties.
Lol. Doesn't sound like she came on a dingy 😂.
God forbid I think she is one of these black British people 😂
Very odd comment. Do I sense a tad bit of jealousy ? Wish others well and you will be blessed yourself.
