Home Description

Description of the home

Seeking friendly housemate for large Brunswick house. The house has plenty of retro character, a large backyard and front yard and plenty of space for green thumbs. There's a shed for storage and hanging out in the warmer months. A sun room is at the back of the house. Huge loungeroom. Cute bathroom with shower above sunken bathtub. The loo is separate at the back of the house. There's also a study that can be shared.

Great location in quiet cul-de-sac with friendly neighbours, close to corner of Sydney Rd and Blyth St. Easy access to 19 tram, 508 bus, and about 10 mins walk to Brunswick train station. There’s also room for a car in the driveway if you have one.

About occupants
You’ll be sharing with me, Kyle. I’m 41, work in academia (about half at home and half at the office at the moment), am a pretty relaxed guy into music, cooking, gardening… all the usual stuff. I'm pretty social, into watching bands, drinks at the pub, etc, but I also like plenty of quiet time chilling at home. I’ve lived in Melbourne for about 8 years now. Queer friendly. I don’t smoke, but don’t mind if you do. No pets, sorry!
Compatible people
Ideally you will be in your mid-30s to mid-40s, plenty of sharehouse experience, have a regular income, be social, respectful, clean, and enviro conscious. Vegetarian preferred, but it’s not a deal-breaker.

I'm after a housemate who is happy for a drink & a chat, but also happy with us each doing our own thing.

Let me know a bit about yourself and we’ll go from there!
