About
Property Reference: 3063604. Hi everyone!
I am relocating to London permanently and need someone to take over my Student Roost contract at St Davids, New Cut Road, Swansea (SA1 2DN), running to 21 August 2027.
The room is available for immediate takeover, and the good news is that the rent is already paid until 15 November 2026, so you can move in now and pay nothing until 1 November 2026.
That is roughly six weeks of living rent-free while you settle in. What makes this one different? A genuine 3-person flat. You share the kitchen with just 2 flatmates.
Most other rooms here are in flats with 5 to 8 people. If you want a clean, quiet, uncrowded kitchen, this flat is the rare one.
Private ensuite, all bills included, WiFi, gym, cinema room, 24/7 security, and just minutes from the city centre and bus links to both campuses.
The complete payment schedule (from the contract): Payment 1 - due 01 Nov 2026 - £640.71 (covers 15 Nov - 24 Dec) - Yours Payment 2 - due 01 Dec 2026 - £657.14 (covers 24 Dec - 2 Feb) - Yours Payment 3 - due 01 Jan 2027 - £657.14 (covers 2 Feb - 14 Mar) - Yours Payment 4 - due 01 Feb 2027 - £657.14 (covers 14 Mar - 23 Apr) - Yours Payment 5 - due 01 Mar 2027 - £657.14 (covers 23 Apr - 2 Jun) - Yours Payment 6 - due 01 Apr 2027 - £657.14 (covers 2 Jun - 12 Jul) - Yours Payment 7 - due 01 May 2027 - £657.14 (covers 12 Jul - 21 Aug) - Yours What that means for you: You move in straight away, and your first instalment of £640.71 is not due until 1 November 2026.
From there, your payments are eight instalments totalling £4,583.55, which works out at about £100/week for ensuite, all-bills-included accommodation including your rent-free weeks.
No rent due in June, July or August; the final instalment in May covers the period until the end of the tenancy on 21 August 2027.
The process: Takeover approved and completed directly through Student Roost. The registered student will undergo standard checks, including a guarantor.
Contract and offer documents are available on request. Ideal for students who need a room now, placement students, or anyone already in Swansea looking for a small, calm flat.
