🏡 Looking for a Housemate to Share a Beautiful 2 Bed / 2 Bath Apartment in South Melbourne

Hi everyone! I'm Apeksha, a software engineer who enjoys an active and balanced lifestyle. Outside of work, you'll usually find me at the gym, going for a run, reading books, exploring Melbourne's coffee spots and restaurants, or heading to music events. I enjoy being social from time to time and love sharing activities with housemates, but I also respect personal space and downtime.

I'm looking for a friendly, respectful, and tidy housemate who is easy-going and considerate. Ideally, someone who is looking for a comfortable long-term home and enjoys a relaxed, positive living environment.

🛏 Available Room – Ensuite

$420 per week (single)

About occupants
Hi! I'm Abbi, a software engineer working full-time in Melbourne. I'm friendly, respectful, and easy-going, and I enjoy maintaining a clean, comfortable, and positive home environment.

Outside of work, I love going to the gym, running, reading books, attending music events, and exploring Melbourne's restaurants and coffee spots. I'm fairly active and social, and I enjoy the occasional meal, coffee, or activity with housemates, but I also value personal space and understand the importance of having time to myself.

I'm looking for a housemate who is considerate, tidy, reliable, and easy to get along with. Ideally, someone who treats the apartment like a home and enjoys a relaxed, respectful living environment. 😊🏡
Compatible people
I'm pretty easy-going, relaxed, and drama-free, so I'm looking for someone with a similar vibe. Someone friendly, respectful, and considerate, but doesn't take shared living too seriously. I believe the best housemates are people who communicate well, clean up after themselves, and are generally easy to live with.

I'm happy to have a chat, grab a coffee, or hang out from time to time, but I also respect personal space and independence. Whether you're a professional or a student, what matters most is that you're reliable, chilled out, and contribute to a comfortable, positive home environment.

At the end of the day, I'm looking for a housemate who feels more like a good flatmate than just a tenant, someone who is easy to get along with and helps make the apartment feel like home. 😊🏡
