Home Description

Description of the home

We live in one of those long, old, Brunswick houses with cute leadlight windows, two awesome humans and 378 worms. There are floorboards, plenty of light in the living area, a nice courtyard which could do with some green-thumbed love, a tv, comfy couch with blankets, kitchen full of all the things you need, a bath, house plants... We have a nice clean ducted heating unit that we enjoy and use in the winter (you will be warm here).

About occupants
I'm Sam, 40, currently doing a PhD in social justice (coming up to one year). Sometimes I work as a teacher (reluctantly). I wake up early most days, study, dance, do a bit of gym, write creative stories, paint badly... etc.
Jane is 44, she works in mental healthcare admin, she is very green thumbed and all the indoor plants are thriving. Jane is also an incredible cook and has many kitchen paraphenalias and good cook books.
Generally we are a quiet house, sometimes we share a meal or watch something together but this is a nice space for having a good balance between time to yourself and housemate chats.
Compatible people
We currently have an amazing housemate that we are going to miss. She is a Japanese illustrator who, like us, spends time doing her own thing but will gather for a chat here and there. We like all the genders of the rainbow and we are looking for someone who is happy in their own skin, doing their thing, touching base here and there and generally plays well with the other kids in the sandpit (no throwing sand).

So sorry no pets because of allergies!
