Home Description

Description of the home

Seeking a respectful, clean, trustworthy and reliable housemate to rent a spacious, and unfurnished private room in a quiet home located in Kelvin Grove.

While the suburb is bustling and highly connected, our home sits in a peaceful, quiet residential pocket. It is an ideal retreat for someone who wants to be close to the city, local hospitals or schools but values a calm, respectful environment to come home to after work.

The house is situated within walking distance of KGSC (5 minutes), QUT (10 minutes), UQ (15 minutes) and RBWH (20 minutes). Kelvin Grove town has an array of shops including Woolies, chemists, cafes, restaurants etc. not to mention they markets every Saturday.

You can bring your own bed and furniture to set up the space exactly how you like it! The room does have built in wardrobes and Ceiling Fan. The main living area has a air conditioning unit and ceiling fan. There is also front and rear sun rooms which has ceiling fans and a place to relax as well as the kitchen.

I have attached images, the pictures of the room were taken recently with the rest of the images are stock photos.

You will be sharing the property with myself and my polite, awesome easy going 9-year-old son who is with me every second week. Because this is a family household, we maintain a positive, stable, and routine-oriented environment.

What is Included:
Rent: $400 per week.
Bond: 4 weeks rent ($1,600).

About You:
We are looking for a mature, single working professional, hospital employee, or regional worker who is friendly, clean, and completely respectful of a child-friendly home environment.

Perfect for medical staff, teaching staff, shift workers, or standard 9-to-5 professionals who value a quiet, laid-back household.

Must be completely comfortable living in a home with a young child (which means early bedtimes and quiet school nights) with the weeks I have him.

This is a relaxed quiet home: This is absolutely not a party house. However, I do enjoy the occasional wine / beer every now and then to let off steam.

About occupants
My son stays with me every second week. He is in grade 4 at the moment but dont worry. He is kind, caring and if you give him the chance, he will yap your ear off....In a nice way. He enjoys creating things on Minecraft, out of cardboard or the 3D printer. When I dont have him the weeks are pretty busy with cycling to work, continung working on furniture, Reading, cooking (always willing to try new recipes) ,mowing the lawn....plus much more.

My name is Matt. We have been living here 6 years. Its the best! I am a Project Manager in Construction.

We like to venture to the markets, go for bike rides, play out in the garden catching skinks and letting em go. But we also know when and how to be quiet, respectful and private. We are looking for someone to join the "team". This place is a great place and we fill it with as much laughter as possible.

I enjoy the occasional beer or wine but alcohol really kicks my @ss when it comes to hangovers so I tend to avoid a few drinks at a time.

We look after this place but sometimes when we are trying to cook or bake new things, the kitchen can get a bit messy but this all gets cleaned up.

If you think you can join this elite team then drop us a line.
