About occupants
We are Alex and Eleanor, working parents looking to share our big house and garden with the right person or couple. Our lovely kids are Hugo (one), Philippa (three) and Dolly our golden retriever.
You would have the upstairs floor to yourself, with a loft bedroom, living area/ study and a bathroom. The kitchen would be yours after 7pm as we eat early with our kids and then put them to bed.
Our garden is very big with a large hedge splitting it in two- there is a porch area with a firepit that could be set up as your space.
We are a very easy-to-get-along-with couple with a lot of experience sharing our space. We like to keep the house clean and tidy and have amazing cleaners who come every two weeks and take care of the big items.
Compatible people
We are looking for someone who is self-sufficient, friendly and easy to live with. We think university students or young professionals who aren't looking for a party house could really work in the set up.
We are open to negotiating a lower rate for e.g. someone living outside Sydney who needs to stay several nights per week, or a student who would be interested in some babysitting.
We are looking for someone clean, responsible, comfortable around kids and someone who will enjoy getting to know Hugo and Philippa.
Description of pets
Dolly is a six year old golden retriever. She is extremely friendly and relaxed.
