Home Description

Description of the home

This spacious apartment feels more like a house. There is a large, protected deck out the front which leads directly onto the street. The back of the apartment has a west-facing balcony with a really lovely aspect. The home is breezy and bright.

It is 650m from Manly wharf, making an easy trip into the city.

It has a separate laundry and bright, clean bathroom.

Big kitchen with a dishwasher.

The car space is behind the apartment and is included in the bedroom.

It's 290m (6-minute walk) to Little Manly Beach, and four other beaches, including Manly main beach, are within a 15-minute walk.

About the occupants
My name is Kate. I'm 39 years old and work as a marketing Creative Director. My work varies as I am currently freelancing. I can be based at home (in a separate office) or in-house at an agency.

Although I work a lot, I make the most of my downtime by seeing live music, going to art or food festivals, spending weekends away, and eating out. I love yoga and my Peleton, and I spend as much time as I can in the ocean.

I’m after the usual things in a flatmate, clean and tidy, easy to get along with and respectful. A sense of humour and some common interests are a bonus too.
Compatible people
I'm fairly open as to who I live with, but self awareness is a beautiful trait in a flatmate. I'd love to live someone who is responsible, low maintenance and knows how to look after themselves, who I also get along with.

I'm not really into the scheduled meals, I don't have enough of a routine to commit to that. Happy to share basic supplies rather than having two of everything. Also more than happy to share wine :)
Description of pets
Uly, short for Ulysses, is a girl despite her name (it's a long story). She is an exotic short hair. Uly has turned many a dog person into a cat person. She's 10 years old, friendly, really chilled out, and very funny. She's never hissed or swiped at anyone. Ever. I take good care of her, brush her often, keep her food area clean, claws clipped and regular check ups at the vet. You'll love having her around.

She does shed fur in Spring and to a lesser degree in Summer.
