Just when this £1,350 a month room to rent can’t get any more jaw-dropping, along comes the next house rule – only 17 responses you need

I like that it’s on a “quiet” street. Noise is banned outside of a two hour window each weekday. And then casually mentions its perched on the edge of a main line train line.

I live 10 minutes from here and pay £875 for a huge bedroom with a private balcony… I come and go as I please and make us much noise as I like. This is unacceptable and WAY out of touch with market conditions.

Wow. I’d rather go to jail. Fewer rules & restrictions, everything free, and no bloody violin students!

Might as well live under a bridge, probably would be more comfortable

This sounds like a challenge that I’d like to take on if I had a spare £1350. My curries take hours to cook, I’m sure her and her students would love the aroma, and the advert says that I would have use of the kitchen with no time restraints.

Basically just wants someone to pay her rent each month but not actually live there

If you’re not allowed home til last 8:30 you might as well just commute 2 hours and have a 3 bed home to yourself for that price

Probably suit a deaf hermit who doesn’t feel the cold. I can almost see a queue forming.

Whether the landlord was shamed by the attention they got or simply had a change of heart, we’ll never know, but, eventually, this happened…

So all’s well that ends well (apart from for people who try to rent out rooms with unreasonable rules at outrageously expensive prices).
