About the occupants
Jane
Works freelance as a corporate health and fitness provider.
A good mix of friends so likes to catch up on the weekends, with a live band or two.

Jay
His background is horses, an equine physiotherapist and breeder of race horses.
Full of life and full of ideas, projects, wisdom and generosity.
He is our resident handy man and also great at keeping the vegie patch full of fresh home grown produce.

Will
Currently studying music production. Loves a good jamming session with mates (not to worry, he plays at their place and has headphones on for home practice). Also catches up with his family often, rarely misses Nan's Sunday dinner.

Simon
Last semester of teacher training. With a position at a local primary school waiting. Hails from country Victoria and visits family when term time breaks. Loves his music and is full of trivia across big mix of genres - pub quiz team captain right there.

Apart from location, the great thing about the house is how really spacious it is. Our street is friendly too, a rare find these days - we know most the neighbours and look out for each other.

Note: We are all 30+ years of age, so consider this when choosing.
Compatible people
Suit respectful professional tradie.

We are looking for that dream housemate who communicates well, pitches in with the running of a house and enjoys a happy, social time with the people they are living with.

Please feel free to drop us a message or call us if you have any questions and/or would like to meet us/arrange a viewing.
