Details
The available bedroom is the largest in the house, measuring an impressive 4.2m × 3.8m, and is believed to be the original master bedroom. Its generous size provides plenty of room for a queen or king-sized bed, bedside tables, a desk, and additional furniture without feeling cramped.

Positioned at the front of the home, the room enjoys an abundance of natural sunlight throughout the day, creating a bright and welcoming space. It also features a large three-door built-in wardrobe with a full-length top shelf, offering excellent storage for clothing, shoes, luggage, and more.

While the room doesn't have air conditioning, it is fitted with a convenient electric roller blind. At the touch of a button, the blind lowers to help block out excess heat and sunlight during warmer days, making the room much more comfortable while still allowing you to enjoy the natural light whenever you choose.

If you're looking for a spacious, bright, and comfortable room with plenty of storage in a well-located home, this room is an excellent choice.

Home Description

Description of the home

Welcome to a warm, comfortable, and well-established 1974 solid brick home that offers space, convenience, and a relaxed living environment. While the property isn't newly renovated, it has been well cared for and provides a homely atmosphere that's ideal for someone looking for comfort over luxury. Please excuse the lived in mass you can see in the photos the previous housemate up and left with two days notice and I'm in the process of giving the house a massive clean out which will be done before you move in.

One of the standout features is the exceptional landlord, who is genuinely respectful of tenants' privacy. Routine inspections are kept to a minimum, and any maintenance issues are addressed promptly. He enjoys completing plastering and general repairs himself, so there are a few cosmetic patch-ups throughout the home, but they don't affect the property's comfort or functionality.

The home sits on a generous block with a huge backyard, providing plenty of outdoor space to enjoy. Its location is hard to beat, with a bus stop just steps away, Tea Tree Plaza only a 10-minute walk, a 24/7 service station directly across the road, and the hospital just a 3-minute drive away. Shops, public transport, and essential services are all within easy reach, making day-to-day living incredibly convenient.

This is an excellent opportunity for someone seeking a friendly, relaxed home in a fantastic location with a landlord who truly values long-term, hassle-free tenancies.

About occupants
You'll be sharing the home with me, a 37-year-old easy-going gay man who runs an online eBay business from home. I'm friendly and always happy to have a chat, but I also understand and respect that everyone needs their own space and downtime. The home has a relaxed, respectful atmosphere where everyone can enjoy their privacy while still feeling comfortable enough to socialise if they choose. I'm also looking to pick up a part-time job in the near future.

The other resident is Oreo, my beautiful Border Collie. She's incredibly friendly, affectionate, and full of personality. Oreo loves people, enjoys a game of ball whenever she gets the chance, and is just as happy curling up for a cuddle after a walk. She's well behaved, gentle, and quickly wins over almost everyone she meets, so if you're a dog lover, you'll feel right at home.

A few house expectations: I do smoke cigarettes, but only outside—the home itself is smoke-free. This is also not a party house. I'm looking for someone who appreciates a quiet, respectful living environment. I have a zero-tolerance policy towards illegal drugs, so if that's part of your lifestyle, this won't be the right fit.

I'm looking for someone who is clean, considerate, and easy to get along with—someone who wants a relaxed, friendly home rather than just a place to sleep.
Compatible people
I'm open to living with people from all walks of life. Age, gender, race, sexuality, or background aren't important to me—what matters is the kind of person you are. I'm simply looking for someone who is friendly, honest, trustworthy, and respectful of the people they live with.

Ideally, you'll be reliable when it comes to paying rent and bills on time, keep shared areas clean and tidy, and be happy to do your fair share around the house. I value open communication and believe a good share house is built on mutual respect and consideration for one another.

One thing I am firm on is that this is a drug-free home. I have a zero-tolerance policy towards illegal drugs. What people choose to do elsewhere is their own business, but drugs are not permitted in this house under any circumstances.

If you're looking for a relaxed, friendly, drama-free home where everyone respects each other's space and contributes equally, I think we'd get along well.
Description of pets
Oreo is a 1½-year-old Border Collie with a beautiful nature and a big personality. She's very people-oriented and loves being around others, whether that's saying hello when you get home, following you out into the backyard, or relaxing nearby while you're watching TV.

Like most Border Collies, she enjoys her daily walks and a game of ball, but once she's had her exercise she's happy to settle down and relax. She's well behaved indoors, friendly with visitors, and isn't an excessive barker. She loves attention but is also gentle and affectionate, so she's a joy to have around the house.

If you're a dog lover, Oreo will probably become your best friend in no time. She simply asks for the occasional pat, a kind word, and maybe someone to throw her ball every now and then!
