Home Description

Description of the home

This room is now available short term until Sep 15th at 40/night. (I have a long term housemate moving in on Sep 15)
It's a nice old art deco house with character and charm - very homely.
I do remedial massage in one of the rooms, usually 2-3 hours per day between 9am and 9pm. It's important that the place is reasonably quiet during sessions.
The house is next to Ascot Vale Leisure Centre which has a pool, sauna, gym, etc. There are raised vegie gardens in the front yard and a rear yard featuring a unique wood fired steam room and hot tub, a fairly organized garage workshop (you can actually walk through it from one end to the other!) and a gas BBQ.
The kitchen is quite large with an adjoining dining area.
The laundry features a front load washing machine and dryer and there is an undercover clothes line in the backyard.

About occupants
I'm Glen, 40 years old, currently working as a massage therapist and I used to repair bicycles (and still do some times). I like bicycle rides, vegie gardening, home improvements and craft work. I try to stay fit and eat healthy. I've been house sharing for 20 years so I'm well accustomed to it and give people a lot of space and freedom unless there's a serious problem.
Compatible people
This house would suit independent people who are happy to have a chat in the kitchen but who are otherwise busy with their own lives. People who enjoy growing vegetables would also enjoy this place.
