Home Description

Description of the home

The communal space - shoes off at the front door...then: HUGE lounge + dining area and spacious kitchen, TWO bathrooms (you would have your own, including shower, toilet & bathtub), laundry & balcony. St Kilda Botanical Gardens is across the road for picnics and lazy hangs. Situated far enough from the crowds of St.Kilda but not too far for a great coffee or brunch.

Featuring: Large refrigerator, gas stove, electric oven, plenty of breeze flowing through the place, huge dining table, WiFi, espresso machine and hifi with bluetooth connectivity.

Bedroom neatly fits a Queen Size bed, full length mirror, desk / WFH station and drawers (photos show two arrangements, with and without desk) with plenty of built-in wardrobe space and leafy green view over the Botanical Gardens. Floor is parquetry in this bedroom and there is also a split system A/C and heating.

Please note- There's a security entrance at ground level and the apartment is up one flight of stairs (no elevator).

The household is sustainable where possible, recycling, collecting compost and energy efficient.

About occupants
Hi, I'm a healthcare professional. I sometimes work from home and sometimes in-clinic. Deeply into music, art, food (omniverous), cooking, sharing meals, living with plants and gardening, fitness, heading away for outdoor adventures, gigs or a hike. Also enjoy living generally without TV... with the amazing sounds of nature from the park across the road.... but open to film nights on the projector or big screen if you have one to bring in.
Compatible people
All LGBTQIA+ and allied, friendly humans are welcome 🏳‍🌈 - this is a safe, inclusive home; discrimination of any kind is not welcome.

Most suitable for open communicators that can treat our home as a sanctuary; who enjoy hosting friends and family at times; who do not smoke or vape, are respectful of space, understand EQ, are honest, can maintain cleanliness of communal areas (read: enjoys a clean space and takes care of shared cleaning unprompted), are social within the household but also can hold their own network of friends and contributes their own energy and vibe to improve the place overall.

Where possible, please provide evidence of employment or income & rental references. I am primarily looking for a medium to long-term housemate but am open to short term stays also.

Bond + first month's rent payment, copy of valid ID (Passport/Driver's Licence) for the real estate agency and signed mutual agreement (in lieu of signing the lease) is required to confirm the room.

No smoking, vaping or animals inside.

Please message directly for more info, to introduce yourself and arrange a tour. Thanks!
