Description of the home
We’re looking for a housemate! We have recently had a housemate move out and are looking for someone to replace them in our beautiful 4-bedroom home.
About the house:
A homely 4-bedroom house in Bayswater, featuring a large living area with comfortable sofas, heating and air-conditioning, 2 bathrooms, a modern fully equipped kitchen (with dishwasher) that flows into a second living area, and a deck with a BBQ and a leafy outlook. We’re in a great location - in a quiet street, only 500m to the nearest bus stop, and 1500m from Woolworths, ALDI, numerous restaurants and gyms (life is about balance right…) and Bayswater train station. There's a double carport, room for a couple more cars in the driveway and plenty of free street parking. There’ll be 3 of us living in the home, with the possibility of making that 4. Couples are encouraged to apply.
To Apply:
If you are interested in living with us, please send a message to Gabi (helping us with this search) saying why are you interested and why you think you might be a good fit to live with us.

I have a disability which impacts my ability to live on my own. I’ve been living with housemates in Bayswater for 11 years. I have support workers to help me out throughout the week, and I rely on housemates for light supports shared across the week. In exchange for these light supports the room will effectively be rent free.
Hi I’m Shashi. I work from home most days, for a media consultancy who do digital marketing for big names like Yarra Trams and PTV, which includes social media platforms. Some days I have to attend photoshoots. I work at a cafe on other days. I like my space when I'm cooking but I'm very communicative and enjoy a good chat.
About You:
Ultimately, we’re looking for a friendly, reliable, respectful, communicative, happy, compassionate and caring person who really wants to be part of a great share house. Our ideal housemate is someone who enjoys having a chat over shared meals, is clean, neat and tidy, and someone who is either working or studying. If you have a good sense of humour, are community minded, and have a cooperative nature, that you would put you at the top of the list!
Gabi (who is helping me to find a housemate) can share more details but some of the small things I need support with are:
• Gentle reminders to turn off devices, the time to brush my teeth or prepare my breakfast for the following day, or if an outfit is weather appropriate
• Asking me if I’ve had my tablets and recording it
• Support setting my sensory time clock
• Cooking meals for each other and eating together several nights a week
• Providing an overnight presence several nights a week
• Gentle encouragement to be involved in dinner
