Home Description

Description of the home

an opportunity to live in this wonderful, old character home has arisen. Unlike modern homes, this Victorian-era, two-story home (essentially, a half manor) exudes character and has super-thick walls! You'd be sharing this big house with just myself!

Downstairs, you'll find a massive period-styled, furnished lounge room with a generous 4m ceiling height and a bay window that overlooks the front garden, complete with a recent model 75" TV and an exceptional pair of speakers (perfect for music/movie lovers). There is also the kitchen, complete with all essential appliances, a gas stove and an adjoining dining room. Storage is available underneath the staircase. Upstairs, you'll find the bedrooms, study and bathroom. Outdoors is an undercover entertaining area, a rustic secret garden, and the laundry with a second toilet.

Brighton's Church Street shopping strip, complete with supermarkets (Coles and Woolworths), is a 5-minute walk and features numerous cafes, restaurants, and retail outlets. Middle Brighton train station (Sandringham line) is a short 10-minute walk from the front door, and a bus route is also nearby (Park Street). The Bay Street shopping strip is also nearby (either a long walk or a short drive), featuring more bars, restaurants, and pubs, as well as a larger Coles. Oh yeah, and Brighton Beach is a 5-minute walk away!

About occupants
I'm a middle-aged (50 y/o) creative professional working full-time in the events industry as a Project Manager. My hobbies include electronic music production, keeping tropical fish, gaming (Xbox), gym, watching movies/series, and cooking. I also do freelance laser shows at festivals and club events.

I'm a young-at-heart, kind, considerate, sociable, easy-going person, and I have a preference for the same in my future housemate. I'm happy to share a wine or two to debrief after a day of work, binge on movies/series, but equally happy to keep to myself.
Compatible people
Empathic, kind, easy-going, organised.
Description of pets
I am a tropical fish keeper so you'll find a few aquariums in the lounge room - I handle the maintenance of these so you just get to enjoy them!
