Home Description

Description of the home

Shop-top apartment in the heart of Balmain, with a great view of Gladstone Park from large living room windows, and a Harbour Bridge glimpse from the enormous patio area. Wood floors, original bathroom (and tub). The home is a great entertainer: it has an 8-seater dining table in a large dining nook, plus the patio.

Transport is super easy: Balmain ferry wharf is a 5min walk away and 10-15mins in to Circular Quay. The 442 bus is 15 minutes to the city and runs all night, there's also the 433 to Central via Glebe and 445 to Campsie.

Close to all Balmain shops including Woolworths, Bourke St Bakery and restaurants including Gigi's Pizzeria.

About occupants
I am a 37 year old gay male with established social circles in Sydney, fond of hosting the odd dinner party or a date, but otherwise quite quiet. Early to bed and early to rise, generally. Looking for a housemate so I can financially maintain a residence in Sydney while I travel for work. For 3 months (July-September) I will be in Sydney full-time, then a few months of only back on weekends.
Compatible people
Tidy and considerate, obviously. Sufficient interests and values in common to feel comfortable and share conversation, but can read social cues well enough to know when to leave space. Happy to be friends or live completely independent lives.
Description of pets
I have a 9 year-old greyhound. I walk her 2-3 times a day, she is toilet trained but she does need to use indoor pee-pads on occasion. She will be with me when I travel, so the house will be pet-free when I'm away. No expectation that you take care of her but if you are a dog lover you're most welcome to take her for a walk or spend time with her.
