Home Description

Description of the home

A large room with included furnishings overlooking a backyard in the trees. About 15-20 minutes walk into Eltham town and the train station through a park at the end of the road, a bit shorter if you beeline up main road. Around the corner (< 5 mins) from a really good coffee shop (Zen Den) and a really good pizza/pasta place and the Eltham Hotel. 902 bus at the end of the street (goes to Doncaster Westfield in one direction, Greensborough in the other), a few other routes too (e.g. 513 that goes to Heidelberg and Preston via Bell st). All bills included including the fastest internet you can get. Aircon in room. Furnished with Queen size bed, desk, build-ins.

About the occupants
I am Michael, 44, an astronomer who works for a global telescope company in California. So, yes, mostly from home (from my own private room, not in the living space!) although I do also travel internationally a bit. There is also my son (7 years old) who lives here half the time. We have a relatively large bedroom spare to rent out to someone. Perhaps you?
I'm a fairly relaxed person and lived in share houses for a couple of decades before getting my own house (this one), so very used to sharing space. I work quite a lot and tap away in the office most of the work day and sometimes night (astronomy happens in the dark). I like wandering through the local parks to relax, I go on a few walks a day. I like travelling and exploring, so I do tend to be away for chunks of time here and there, both around Australia and internationally. Generally pretty chilled.
Description of pets
Two cats who live outside.
