Flathunting - new flat required 31 December

Hello,After 7 years in the same flat my landlady has decided to refurb and sell, she is very happy to give me a reference.  My current flatmate and I are having to look for somewhere new to live and we are looking in Chiswick, Shepherds Bush and Hammersmith.  Looking for an unfurnished flat, with a good kitchen/breakfast room, bedrooms with storage (built in wardrobes) and ideally bookshelves - not looking for the most modern of flats just somewhere to feel at home with a degree of character.  I thought that I would put an ad on Chiswick W4 in case there is any landlord/landlady who prefers to deal directly rather than through an agent.  Max budget £1,700 per month.Any ideas would be fab - thank you very much.Charlotte

Hi CharlotteMy brother and his wife are currently extending their BEAUTIFUL maisonette (up into the attic).It's very quick to get from their's to Chiswick - either by bus on a brisk walk down to the Duke of Sussex.My brother refurbished the flat a couple of years back - lots of original features, great wood flooring, wonderful multi-coloured tiles in kitchen (eat-in) and great colours... Lots of authenticity, not a soulless refurb.  He also redesigned the garden (he's a landscape gardener) although you wouldn't make use of that right now.They were looking to complete the work (2nd bedroom and shower room) for rental start of Dec but I think your date might work and given them a bit of breathing space.Karen will be at the flat doing some painting and cleaning so that they can start to show it.  I'm sure she'd be up for showing it to you if you wished to nip around.  You'd need to see past the yet-to-be painted walls but I'm certain it would be worth it.  As soon as it's on the market it will go.Karen's address is karen_mchugo@msn.com and her mobile is 07901 893 470.  She couldn't post on her as she doesn't have a W12 post code...Hope this is of interest...Kind regardsRachel HERVERachel Hervejerseybird@hotmail.com
