Home Description

Description of the home

🏞️ LOCATION
Tucked away at the rear of just two units on a no-through road, the house is blissfully quiet with zero street noise.
You’ll be surrounded by nature, with Darebin Parklands, Sparks Reserve, Wilson Reserve, and the tranquil Yarra trails just a few minutes’ stroll away, all while staying close to everything you need. It's a 3-minute drive (or a 13-minute walk) to Ivanhoe Station, 7 minutes to Fairfield, and just 10 minutes to Northcote.

🏠 THE HOUSE
The outdoor space has a large garden + outdoor space, private, and perfect for morning coffee, sunbathing, or evening chats under the stars. Double garage space.
Inside, the home is thoughtfully designed with 3 bedrooms, 2 living areas, 2 bathrooms (1 ensuite), a kitchen, laundry. Offering the best of both connection and privacy.

🛏️ YOUR ROOM
You’ll have a generously sized bedroom with a built-in wardrobe, located at the back of the house. I’m at the front, so we’ll each have our privacy. You’ll also have the option of entering from the back.
The bathroom (with both bathtub and shower) and toilet will be mostly for your use (I have an ensuite, though I might sneak in for the occasional soak in the tub on a chilly evening).

About occupants
Hi! I’m 44, originally from Italy, and after years of living in different countries, I’ve called Melbourne home for the past six. I work full-time as a psychotherapist (which I love), and sometimes teach yoga or offer massage therapy.

I’m an early bird and a bit of a homebody. I'm into plants, books, cooking, salsa dancing, long walks, learning piano, nature time, yoga, pilates, and farmers markets. I like things harmonious, clean, calm, and kind.

I love to share chats and meals, but also love some inward time. While this is not a party house, I enjoy having friends over for a chat and a meal!
Compatible people
You’re looking for a calm and beautiful home, you value emotional intelligence, and you communicate with ease. You enjoy the occasional shared meal or chat, but also value and respect solo time. And of course, you love dogs.

You've got a reliable income with good rental history (you will be subject to real estate checks)

Ideally, you work/study outside the house (to create some balance, as I work from home), but it is not a deal breaker.

You're open to committing long term.
Description of pets
Theodorus is 4.5 years old, toilet-trained, and an absolute sweetheart. At home, he’s calm and quiet. You'll usually find him napping, sunbathing, or curled up somewhere soft. Outside, though, he's all charm and play: trotting alongside mum’s bike, charming strangers into throwing his ball, or chasing around with his doggy friends.

He adores humans, cuddles, a good wrestle and will never say no to a game of fetch, just be ready for that hopeful look when he drops the ball at your feet!
