Home Description

Description of the home

We're searching for a friendly new housemate to join our beautiful South Melbourne share house.
Available from end of August, you'll be taking the largest bedroom in the house - a bright, north-facing retreat that gets gorgeous sunshine throughout the day. The room is unfurnished and features two large built-in wardrobes, a private bathroom, and your own private balcony, perfect for a morning coffee or winding down after work.

Also included is shared access to a dedicated workspace on the top floor, separate from the bedroom, making it ideal if you work from home a few days a week.

The house itself is full of character, with high ceilings, plenty of natural light, and a lovely backyard to enjoy.

Location
The location is hard to beat:
2-minute walk to both the 1 & 12 trams, with direct access to the CBD (10 minutes) or St Kilda Beach in the opposite direction.
5-minute walk to Albert Park and the Melbourne Sports & Aquatic Centre, plus football fields, golf course, driving range, basketball courts, futsal and volleyball facilities.
10-minute walk to the Royal Botanic Gardens.
Around 10 minutes walk to South Melbourne Market, supermarkets, DFO, cafés, and only 4km from the CBD.

Bills
Bills are split equally between the three housemates. Every few months we also do a shared household order (cleaning supplies, toilet paper, etc.), which you're welcome to be part of.

About occupants
Who are we?

You'll be living with Geetan and Melissa. Geetan works full-time in marketing, with WFH two days a week. He likes skateboarding, inline skating, running, music, djing and movie nights.

Melissa is completing her masters in landscape architecture and working part time. She likes gardening, cinema, stand-up comedy, reading, running, yoga/meditation and a diverse range of music. In a previous life she travelled a lot and lived in Germany for many years.

We are both vegetarian and like cooking!

We enjoy a balance of socialising and having our own space, and are looking for people who appreciate a relaxed, respectful home environment. Geetan has lived in the house for five years and has genuinely loved called it home. We are hoping to find someone who'll enjoy the house just as much and make it their home too.
Compatible people
We are hoping to find someone in their 30s who enjoys sharing a home, is considerate, tidy, and wants to make the place feel like home rather than just somewhere to sleep. We all have our own lives and spend plenty of time out and about, but we're always happy to chat over a coffee or occasionally have friends around for dinner (with plenty of notice).

Unfortunately, the property isn't suitable for pets.

If this sounds like your kind of home, we'd love to hear from you!
