The brightest room in the house, it gets sunlight the entire year and like all of the property has green views. The room dimensions are 291cm X 237cm, features a built-in wardrobe with drawers as well as hanging rails and storage shelf, I've not been able to take pictures of this due to the current occupant but you're welcome to see it in person :)

Home Description

Description of the home

Cute second floor apartment with lots of natural light, trees and greenery at every window. It's pretty quiet and gives an impression of snug even though it's quite spacious.

The living area has access to the balcony, and this can be re-arranged as needed. I'm happy to move and remove most of the furniture items as I've gotten them on an as needed basis.

The kitchen also has an extra little sink which I use as a utility sink for laundry and cleaning things that aren't food related.

We're less than ten minutes walk to Dulwich Hill station, and have easy access to the 412 and 430 bus services. The closest place for food shopping is a big Woolworths which you can walk to or take the SW1 to Marrickville to make it even easier. There's also an Aldi nearby at Canterbury which you can get to on the same bus but in the other direction :)

The bathroom has a good sized shower and a bathtub which is actually deep/long enough for most humans to comfortably enjoy (sorry all you 6 foot folks, you will need to bend your knees a bit).

Bills and expenses

Electricity and internet are charged monthly and split each month, with the gas being charged quarterly. I like to charge based on the days living in the apartment so any time spent on vacations etc won't have this included in your share of the bills.

About occupants
Howdy! My name is Kat (she/they), I'm a 34 year old butler to my 9 year old greyhound Toby. We're both quiet types with a bit of a silly streak, a love of food, and the occasional burst of energy which we usually take outside.
I work Monday to Friday in the city, when I'm home I like to chill out mostly. Have a cuppa, read a book, do some knitting etc. I like to be calm at home and energetic outside :)
Compatible people
I like a fairly clean and tidy space and will always do my best to maintain that so a person who likes a similar standard will be the best fit. I do that classic ADHD thing where I'll put something down to come back to it later but I keep on top of it pretty well and will move it if it's not looking like I can get to it within a day/it's getting in the way so someone who is either patient/understanding or able to communicate if it's an annoyance will be best.
I will sometimes listen to music on a speaker rather than in headphones unless it's at an unsociable hour or I'm asked to switch which I'm always happy to do and would ask for the same.
Description of pets
Toby is a rescue greyhound so he does come with a couple of quirks but is generally a very sweet old sod who loves a firm pat and a head scritch. He can be quite aloof and won't necessarily approach you apart from when you arrive home, if he really likes you he'll do a bow too.
The general rule is if he's in his bed or giving you a side eye/not moving as you approach him it's best to leave him be. He doesn't bark or jump up on you but loves a little trot outside and will spend most of the day sleeping if he can.
