Other information
It's the smallest room in the house but can still fit all your necessary furniture. It can fit a double/queen bed but you'll be tight for space. Current housemate sleeps on a Queen bed and has space for a wardrobe and side tables on either side. If you push the bed to the wall you'll have more space and can fit a small desk if needed.

Home Description

Description of the home

The room is small to medium in size, and is unfurnished. Dimensions are 3.45 x 2.87m and can fit a double/queen bed, a wardrobe and a small desk.
Its about a 5 min walk to Marrickville Station, or 15 min walk to Sydenham station. There are frequent buses going towards the city and Newtown (423, 426, 430). Walking distance to a Metro Woollies, Asian grocers, Gyms (One Playground, Anytime Fitness), plenty of eateries along Illawarra and Marrickville Rd (dangerously close to Marrickville Pork Roll). Lots of bars and pubs in the area.

Home features

  • Broadband Internet
  • Clothes washer
  • Balcony, patio or deck

Bills and expenses

Internet is $28.33 per month. Electricity and gas are billed every three months and I will divvy the payments monthly so that when the bill is due, it's not delivered in a huge lump sum. Water is also billed every 3 months but it's not a huge bill so I will ask for the full amount (divided obviously) when appropriately due.

About occupants
Josh (34, Gay, he/him/his): Single-player gamer enthusiast. Will talk your ear off about them too if you want. More on the quiet side until he gets more comfortable with you. Enjoys topics around pop culture/music, horror, tiktok trends and memes, and trashy tv. Enjoys cooking, random solo adventures (let’s go on some together), and going to the gym. Has a partner that visits on weekends but is respectful and lovely.

Steele (25, Straight ally, he/him/his): Hey I’m Steele! During the day I work as an IT recruiter mostly at home and at night I do a lot of Latin Dancing. I travel a fair bit so I’m away at least 1 day a week. When at home I can be quite introverted but I’m new to Sydney so I’m always happy to try a new spot.
