Home Description

Description of the home

The house has timber flooring and carpet in bedrooms and is almost brand new. I'll add more pics once I'm finished cleaning everything and it should be available for viewing later in June in person or via video tour. Currently 2 tenants myself, living on the disability support pension and Ramya who is currently studying. We generally stay in our rooms for the most part but aren't completely antisocial and love a good chat. We're on a beautifully quiet street, public transport is close, we gave recently purchased a dining set, an 'L-shaped sofa & I'll be buying a reclining chair as our sofas don't both fit. We have an outdoor setting as well. the backyard has also been covered with artificial grass, I'll try to update the photo in the coming days weather permitting, the same with the bedroom.

Bills and expenses

At the moment we're only paying for electricity and internet as I'm on disability I receive discounted utilities and for now still have funds on URGES for gas & water. Bills are around $100-$150 each a month. We also subscribe to a large amount of streaming services (Netflix, Paramount, HBO Max. Disney & Apple are currently paused- I think that's all) that you're welcome to use and contribute your third. There's also coax cable connection for free to air TV.

About occupants
Hi, I'm Sarah, (48F, on the disability support pension) & I share this house with Ramya (33F) -currently studying, we have been living together (with Ramya's Golden Retriever 'Pistacio') for around 8-9 months. We have THE BEST landlord you could hope who attends to maintenance with in a day or two. Ramya and I are pretty quiet, we generally watch TV in our rooms but like having a house chat every now & again.
I'm vegetarian (with the exception of the occasional oysters), Ramya eats chicken & seafood but we have no issues with anyone's dietary preferences.
Compatible people
We are looking for someone quiet for the most part. 'Clean' (in communal areas) as well of course. I guess just a respectful housemate who gets the standard boundaries and blends with us well. Appreciation of communal furniture, no smoking inside. Courteous of other housemates -including Pistachio, up for the occasional chat over tea, hot chocolate, or wine.
We do expect the kitchen, dishes to be rinsed & loaded into the dishwasher (and other communal areas) to be cleaned after use as we are both very clean & considerate of others. We have our 'favourite' mugs but otherwise all kitchen items & appliances are communal, but we generally don't share groceries. Of course prompt payments of bills etc is expected within reason...
Description of pets
Ramya has a BEAUTIFUL 3YO Golden Retriever we both care for, also, I'm currently looking to foster a dog in need so I can't give much information but I want to help dogs (1 at a time) most in need. Our last housemate had a snake so we're fairly open minded when it comes to pets but no cats.
