Main interests
About the occupants
We are a trio of fun, chill people. We enjoy the occasional vino/gin and cheese board and sometimes organise housemate dinners where we all contribute to the cooking and drinks. We also love a board game and love to watch MAFS together.

We're a relatively tidy bunch - although not obsessive. We've got a cleaning roster, so you only end up cleaning the house once every 4 weeks.

Chris, 35, works retail, loves soccer, techno, starting and not completing projects and Gilmore Girls
Gillian, 29, recently graduated Psychologist, salsa dancer, loves a tray reality show and always up for a good chat
Zoe, 33, works in fashion, lover of immersive art, cold brew coffee and trying out new recipes
Compatible people
We're on the hunt for a new housemate, as Paige (the one moving out) is in moving in with her partner.

Ideally you are 28+ and working full-time. No couples and no pets.

You will need to sign onto the lease, which is month-to-month. We are looking for people who want to stay long-term, at least 6 months, but ideally longer.
