Home Description

Description of the home

4 bedroom house in Maddingley, with 2 bedrooms and the main bathroom/toilet to yourself and 99% of the time, the lounge room area too. Open plan kitchen/dining/living with gas cooking, dishwasher and BBQ to undercover area.

Ducted heating and split-system cooling, carpeted bedrooms and floating floors/tiles to the rest of the house.

Double lock up garage with space for your car (rear yard access also and powered shed in huge backyard). Brownie points if you're outdoorsy and can help with garden maintenance, so I don't have to hire someone to do it. I am not physically able to but I have a lawn mower you can use.

I already have a very sweet, senior dog, so no additional pets unfortunately. Mine wouldn't deal well.

50/50 share of the rent and internet/bills please, based on usage.

Whole house is furnished but I can clear out the bedrooms and some of the lounge if needed. You'll need your own TV.

Non-smokers and those with consistent income only, need apply please (via agent). Prefer a male 30s+ or mature female. I'm not a party animal, I don't drink, smoke or have any involvement with drugs and I work very hard, so I really can't cope with children living here please. It's too disruptive.

I am very particular about whom I will open my home to, given my line of work and lifestyle. I realise it seems like I'm asking a lot but there are genuine reasons. which are non-negotiable.

Move-in date is also negotiable.

About occupants
My name is Sally. I'm a 38 year old Real Estate Agent, who lives a very quiet, homely lifestyle. I don't often go out, so I'll be home every evening. I also work most weekends, doing house cleaning, so when I can be home, I will be home. I'm also a classically-trained jazz singer, so occasionally, I'll sing in the shower where the acoustics are better lol. I do also have many medical conditions, so peace and quiet is important to me. In saying that, I'm a very friendly, honest, genuine, caring and respectful individual with a very dry sense of humour, who is entering into a very new chapter.
Compatible people
I'm after someone mature, quiet and likes to keep to themselves mostly but I'm up for a chat while I'm up doing things or in the kitchen. Peace is very important to me, so excessive noise won't be well-received. If you have a great rental history and can keep up with your rent and bills, as well as help to take on the garden, I'll take care of the house cleaning, etc. Trust is a BIG thing for me. This is an enormous change for me and I'm not going to lie, I'm nervous about it but I'm a very genuine, caring and generous person and will never impose. Unfortunately, I can't take anyone with children or pets and no couples please. Just you and me here. You're welcome to have friends round every now and then, as long as it's not disruptive.
Description of pets
Lucky is a 15 year old Maltese x Shih-Tzu, rescue. He's my world and is very sweet. He'll likely come and hang out with you when I'm not home, if you'll let him, so if you're a dog lover, he'll be stoked! Please acknowledge him when you come and go, so he knows you're "family".
