Details
An amazing opportunity has opened up in a peaceful, tidy 2-bedroom house shared between two people. I am relocating, so the second large private bedroom is available. It’s bittersweet, I have loved this space and the neighbourhood.

The vacant bedroom has recently been repainted and refreshed internally, making it the perfect time to move in. It fits a queen-size bed, but could comfortably fit a king-size. It is a light room which receives a nice cross breeze in the afternoons.
The space also fits an area for a cloths rack/working from home desk and dresser.

We can discuss the option of purchasing the existing bed base and/or mattress in the room, if required. The Bond is your share of the existing Bond.

Home Description

Description of the home

The house is located on a quiet street in a peaceful neighbourhood (a wide, tree-lined street tucked away from the main shops, right in the heart of Marrickville). Plenty of off street parking is available, with a permit required.

The house is fully furnished, so you would only need to furnish your own bedroom.

There are lovely shared spaces throughout, including
- Kitchen
- Living room
- Second living room
- Separate toilet room
- Bathroom with bath and shower
- Internal laundry with washer and dryer
- Outdoor terrace/garden area, a peaceful spot to relax and unwind

Location highlights
- Short walk to Marrickville Road’s cafes, restaurants, bars, and shops
- Only 10–15 minute walk to Marrickville or Sydenham train stations (Sydney CBD is about 20–30 minutes away by train)
- Easy bus access, close to Marrickville Metro shopping centre, parks, and Inner West lifestyle

About occupants
I share this house with my best friend. As working professionals, it’s important to us that the house remains peaceful and feels like a sanctuary where everyone can relax. Always up for the occasional dinner and chat, but we value each others space and schedules (this is not a party house).

This is a great opportunity for someone clean and considerate who is seeking a relaxed base in one of Sydney’s coolest suburbs.
Compatible people
Ideally looking for a professional in their late 20s–30s (male or female) to move in long-term, who appreciates a calm, respectful home environment.

If this feels like the right fit, please send me a message with a quick introduction about yourself, including:

- Age
- Work commitments
- Lifestyle
- When you would be available to view the house and meet us
- Timing to move in

If everything goes well, the real estate agent will guide you through the next steps, including landlord approval and updating the lease so you can take over my spot and co-sign with my friend/your new housemate.

The current lease runs until 24 September 2026, with potential to extend thereafter. We have been in this house since 2022.

All current contacts for utilities will be provided to the successful applicant.
Description of pets
You will also be living with a small, friendly dog who mostly keeps to herself in the second bedroom. The lease allows for only one dog (no other pets at this stage).
