Home Description

Description of the home

Its a lovely 3 bed two story house with a nice backyard :) central heating and evaporative cooling! What a win :)

The house is about a 10 min walk to the Batman station on the Upfield line. And the Sydney Road tram is about 7 mins away. The house is in a lovely location, right near Coburg Lake and Merri Creek. Its on Stockade Ave so you can check out the location (Coburg is quite large!)

The house is full furnished except for your room but we can always shuffle stuff if you have things to bring.

We have a few different areas set up in the house, one of the lounge rooms is the TV room, while the big lounge/kitchen dining has the stereo and record player. If you are musically inclined, this would be very welcome, I play the guitar, sing and is learning the piano :) There is another open space at the top of the stairs which we are using as a study. And we have a spare bedroom that we use as a second study/guest room/ music room.

We have a large outdoor setting, hills hoist, and lovely verandah out the back.

There is a shopping centre inside Pentridge which is just across the road with a cinema, IGA and many other things.

You would have your own bathroom. There is a seperate toilet upstairs and also one downstairs.

There is a cupboard under the stairs for storage (but no Harry) and a full laundry. We have a double garage with shelving for storage.

Bond is split evenly between the 2 of us so it would be $1195. And we would get you on the lease

I have been here for 5 years and its only the second increase we have had.

About the occupants
Hey I am Jess :)

Little about me - Mon to Fri 9-5 gal in the working a mixture of days from home and the office, I love to sing (don't be scared, I can actually sing) and play the guitar, enjoy getting my crafternoon on and make things with the sewing machine. I have also just discovered making things with wood so will see where that takes me. I have the two cats in the house which are adopted sisters Minnie and Luna. They are 7 and love a pat and a belly rub. Very friendly cats :) You must like cats, a previous housemate didnt and it wasn't fun for anyone !

I shouldn't have to put this but a previous experience has made me wary - no homophobes, racists or negative people. This is a welcoming happy house, please be the same :) I want the house to be a home
Compatible people
Someone who enjoys music is a must. Would love to know my housemate a bit but is happy to have their own space too! Someone who can sit down with a cuppa while we put a record on and just have a chat if we are all home. You need to have sharehouse experience and be clean and tidy. Not anally so but enough that we can both be comfortable bringing friends home :) Want it to feel that its a home, not just somewhere to sleep. Having said all that, am after someone who has their own stuff going on and enjoys their own space. Its all about the balance hey
Description of pets
Two cats, 7 year old adopted sisters Minnie and Luna who are very friendly cats. Love pats, cuddles and belly rubs. They are indoor and outdoor cats.
