Home Description

Description of the home

Old style home with clean white painted walls throughout offset by stained timber trims/picture rails. Quiet street and neighbourhood with good off street parking.

On Hurstbridge train line with options to shopping hubs at High St Westgarth, Station St Fairfield and shopping centre at Seperation St. Close by to Yarra Bend & Fairfield park for walking and bike trails, close to Melbourne Polytechnic and a host of other educational facilities etc.

Private back yard with additional small storage space for extra overflow.

Share use of all whitegoods and electrical goods as house is fully furnished ( excl. room available). Back yard is somewhat unique - it is very private and whilst totally concreted ( let's face it - you don't want to be mowing the back yard so it is a positive! ) it has been softened with no dig gardens built on top - ever evolving and not as stark as you may initially imagine.

Some small/additional furnishings may be available for use.

About occupants
I am a self reliant, driven, creative, mature women (60+), looking for another self reliant/independent and emotionally mature woman for share house, whereby its' independent living in a bright, sunny home.
I am 'old school' when it involves technology and am generally left of most things. At crossroads with work career and am looking for a change, having been in design field for last 40 years or so, however, I have plenty to do to keep me occupied with my own hobbies, interests and general household domestics. Quiet & casual household, clean and tidy without being obsessive, often with music to help with the day. Individual living arrangements, clean up after ourselves and do our own food ( I am vego & 420 fan), shopping etc but am are sociable and present when we all meet again after our daily events. Looking for other women who can slot into similar ways of living.
New housemate (40) moved in Feb 2026 & works from home & in the city. She is looking to team up with another person to try to secure a house lease, so this may be an opportunity for someone who wants to pursue their own home to consider matching up with her and trial living together here initially. Note that this home only has short tenure that can be further explained, so will suit someone seeking short rental for next few months to June 2026 max.
Compatible people
Looking for a reliable/self driven mature women who are happy to live in share house but as an independent person. Seeking productive and confident women capable of keeping all common spaces clean and accessible for others. This may suit someone who enjoys their own space and living on their own intermittently but happy to interact and be social with other housemates when we are all present at same time. Prefer someone confident without 'ego' and definitely not overly passive or submissive. Bonus points for being environmentally friendly and aware and especially if you live your belief system through being pro-active rather than paying lip service.
