Home Description

Description of the home

Right in the heart of Manly, the beautiful Strathspey building is just a 5 minute walk to the ferry, across the street from the beautiful harbour and conveniently located close to many coffee shops and restaurants. The unit is located at the back of the building, which ensures quiet evenings from any street noise, yet is still a bright and beautiful space. There is a shared rooftop with two dining tables and BBQ open for the building to use, with incredible harbour views.

Recently renovated and modern appliances throughout the 3 bedroom house makes the flat a perfect oasis for either working from home, entertaining with friends, or just relaxing in the lovely space. There is also a large amount of storage both under the building as well as the roof for surfboards, bikes, camping gear, etc.

About occupants
Hello! I'm Taylor, a 34 year old American from San Francisco who has lived in Sydney for 8 years. I've lived in this current residence in Manly for 6 years and absolutely love it. I work in Sydney CBD at a Marketing agency, with the flexibility of working 2 days a week from home. My week nights are typically quite relaxed, as I like to get up early to run the beachside or go to the gym. I love to cook and try to meal prep early in the week. I'm typically out and about during the weekend socialising with friends, trying new bars or restaurants, or enjoying the sunshine on the beach or in the surf. I also love a good movie and wine night!

Your second housemate would be Sanne. I’m Sanne (31) originally from The Netherlands but lived on the Northern Beaches for the past 19 years. I’m an Interior Designer, working full time, mostly in the office. During the week I keep it pretty chill, I go on walks, read, cook etc. During the weekend I’m often out and about, at the beach, on a walk, having coffee, socialising or heading out for a drink.
Compatible people
We’re looking for a friendly, fun, and clean roomie to share the space with! We think it's great to have a friendship within the home with someone who is happy to socialise over drinks/dinner and be a mate, but also to respect each others spaces. The living space is quite big, therefore someone who is diligent about keeping these areas tidy is very important. We like to keep the flat as our safe space, so always keeping that in mind if/when having people over on rare occasions. It will be a requirement that the new person will need to be on the lease, so we’re only looking for someone that can commit to at least a year.
