🚨 HOT GIRL ROOM AVAILABLE – 18/6 MOVE-IN 🚨
(in Kensington, not the Palace, sorry 🫡)

My housemate is off to live their best life elsewhere, so their iconic, oversized room is up for grabs in our 2BR apartment. It's big, it’s comfy, and yes, it has a private bathroom so you can cry in the bath in peace 🛁✨

💁‍♀️ What you’re getting:
A BIG room that fits a queen bed, 2 bedside tables and your emotional baggage

Built-in wardrobe with enough storage for a shopping addiction

A window (view = sad grey wall, but let’s call it urban brutalism 😌)

Private bathroom with a bath (BYO bath bombs and existential dread)

Full-length mirror already in there – selfies = sorted

🏡 The Vibe:
Spacious, chill apartment with TONS of kitchen storage

Comfy couch for movie nights or post-night-out decompression 🛋

TV incoming 📺 (negotiable if you have better tech or just strong opinions)

Rooftop access with gorgeous city views – sunset wines or moon rituals welcome 🌇🌕

🚫 The Fine Print:
No pets (blame the lease, not me)

No smokers, pls (vibes only, not cigarettes)

Parking access = YES 🚗

📍 The Area:
15 min walk to South Kensington Station

10 min bus to Kensington or Footscray (bus stop 5-7 min away)

Next to the Maribyrnong River Trail – perfect for hot girl walks, runs, or reflective power strolls

💸 Costs:
Bond: $1271

Lease transfer fee: $275

Must join lease (quick app form) & pay a month’s rent upfront

You’ll be living with me – I’m chill, clean, and just want a good roomie who respects boundaries, shares snacks, and isn’t weird about bathroom schedules 🫶

DM me for pics, vids or a FaceTime tour!

About occupants
👋 Hi, I’m Jen!
21 | She/Her | Law + Global Studies @ ACU | Professional Tea-Slinger at Chatime 🧋

If you're looking for a housemate who's equal parts cosy homebody and social butterfly, I’m your girl. I’m not a neat freak (life is chaotic and that’s okay), but I do love a tidy space — think “organized but lived-in.” Basically, if you leave a spoon in the sink, I won’t combust 💅

🧁 Fun facts about me:

I love to bake, so there’s a high chance of spontaneous brownies, cookies, or banana bread just appearing

Big on cooking, couch rotting, and movie nights — rom-coms to true crime, I don’t discriminate 🍝🎬

Recently became a footy fan (no idea what’s going on half the time, but I scream at the TV anyway)

I have a tight-knit group of mates who pop in often — we’re more “tea & Netflix” than “DJ in the living room”

Very LGBTQ+ friendly, sex work positive, and just generally all about good vibes and respect

I work as a supervisor at Chatime in the city, so yes — free bubble tea when I’m on shift (you’re welcome). My schedule’s a little all over the place, so you’ll see me coming and going like a caffeinated ghost 👻

My boyfriend comes over a couple times a week — he’s lovely and mostly stays in my room, though he’s a sports guy™️ so prepare your ears for AFL commentary in winter.

If you’re chill, respectful, and like the idea of a home that’s warm, welcoming, and occasionally smells like fresh cookies — we’ll get along just fine 🫶

HMU if you want to come check out the place this weekend! Room's ready from 18/6 and I’m keen to get someone awesome in ✨
